In the S Note App you are supposed to be able to switch between pre-set pen options (Colors, etc.) by pushing the button on the pen. This is shown in the official Samsung Video on the "enhanced features" provided by Jelly Bean.
I cannot get it to work. Any Suggestions?

Can you link to the video?

Being a newbie on this forum, I am not allowed to post links. (Thems the rules!) You can find it by searching YouTube for: [Galaxy Note 10.1] Enhanced S pen Experience with Premium Suite.[/B]

Oh! That's pretty cool!

Figured it out. Open S Note, then touch the Pen to bring up pen settings. Choose your tool, color, width and opacity, then click the small Plus sign in the upper right corner of the sample. It will add your setting to a preset. Clicking the S Pen button when you are hovered near an S Note doc will cycle through all of your presets. I can't figure out how to get the eraser in there, though...

Thanks. I can get the pre-sets done. My problem is that when I push the button on the pen to toggle thru the pre-sets, nothing happens! I have tried countless times but nothing helps. VERY FRUSTRATING!!

I had to have the pen almost touching the screen and then the brushes change. I can see the changes in the pen tool icon. It's even cycling to the eraser now (finally). I deleted all of the Samsung presets and reloaded just 3 that I thought I'd use (thin black pen, a little thicker red, and a highlighter-yellow). Maybe before I had too many presets? (Have no idea if there is a limit...)

THANK YOU DOCTOR! I am healed! I was holding the button too long. I found that it does cycle through to the eraser as part of the Cycle. Thanks again. I really appreciate the help.
