Android split window

[batata004]

Hi,

I am on latest Android (Samsung smartphone) and I like to use multi window a lot, and it works great. I can have an app running at the top and another app at the bottom. There is a small horizontal line between the 2 apps that I can drag to increase and decrease the window size (if I make the height of the app at the top bigger then the app at the bottom gets smaller automatically). Sometimes I want the app at the bottom to have a very small height but unfortunatelly if I drag the splitter to a small height dimension, android will cancel the multi window.

The multi window with the splitter is awesome, but that's a really terrible decision to not allow an app to have a very small height and the other a very big height. And the problem is not with the app, because I am the developer of both apps and even setting minHeight to 1dp, Android never allows the apps to have a height smaller than 20-30% of the screen height. Why? Is there a way to fix it, something like in the Developer options?

what samsung phone do you have? on my z fold 4 i can make the windows as big or small as i want by moving the middle of the split screen in either direction. and i do not think this is an android issue.....samsung's OneUI.....maybe.

@ocnbrze My friend, I have a Samsung a52 smartphone. I recorded a video so you can see:

With your smartphone, can you get to a smaller size than the one I show you in the video?
