I cannot swipe up from the left corner of my iPad for a screen shot, nor swipe up from the right corner for quick notes. All that happens it he 'window' changes shape. How do I do screen shots and get my quick notes access when I'm browsing or playing a game?

Original Title: iOS26
iPad Pro
The Screenshot (and Quick Note) corner-swipe gesture is available when Multitasking is configured for Full Screen Apps - but will not be available (and will be ghosted in settings) when using Windowed Apps or Stage Manager modes:
When using the Windowed Apps and Stage Manager modes, the finger-swipe trigger gesture is disabled - as this would otherwise conflict with resizing of windows from the bottom corners of the screen.
While the finger-swipe gesture is not available in these modes is not available, the equivalent Pencil gesture is still available if configured in settings:
Settings > Apple Pencil > [Pencil Gestures] >

Try and restrat the iPad to see if the issues persist
If the issues persist, you might want to see if stage manager is on an turn that off to see if the issues persist
I didn't know I could turn off the windows feature and stage manager and use the full screen app. Thank you. That is just what I wanted.
