Here is an image of what it looks like https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B-fJ64EIMUFVcC1FdVhtSkpXTGM/edit?usp=sharing. The two icons on the bottom right are apps that I uninstalled but didn't update the widget. These floating widgets appear whenever either my media apps or navigation is in the foreground(Pandora, Stitcher, Google Nav, Audio Book Player). Widget window also put a small arrow in the title bar which can minimize the widget to an icon on the screen in case it gets in the way. I don't know if "overlays" has this, "floating widget" does not.

The first step, was to create 2 widgets in "elixir2". I choose a narrow format so that they wouldn't cover the center area. You can choose shortcuts, app, or some toggles to place in the widget. On the left widget I put all the media station apps(Pandora, Stitcher Radio, Iheart Raido, Smart , Medi Fly, Audiobook Player). On the right is "google navigation" and other apps(google search, navigation pro, bluetooth auto connect, homescreen shortcut) I also had a voice dialer, but google voice replaced it. I made the background of the widgets transparent, but you can also make the icons semi-transparent if you want.

Then I used "widget window" to float the widgets that I created in "elixir2". I am assuming you would be able to do the same with "overlays" also.

In widget window select "elixir2" as your widget. It'll take you into elixr2 where you can load the widgets you created. In widget window I named the widgets L and R for right and left. I wanted to have as little text as possible but still be able to tell which one is which. I ended up making the background tinted in "widget window" so I could easily see the icons in google navigation.

I then created a profile in tasker to automatically open my "created widget windows" when my navigation, or other app that I have put on my widget is open.

It's under -plugins-widget window- in tasker. You can select individual windows to show or hide. I also had to create a profile to hide the windows when those apps are not in the foreground, so they disappear automatically. For example when either Pandora, Stitcher Radio, Smart Audiobook player or Navigation are open the widgets are floating so that I can switch easily between them. The floating widgets disappear when those apps are not in the foreground. Just make sure to include a shortcut to navigation in one of your widgets, so you can switch back and forth easily.

I believe "overlays" also has a similar plugin to tasker, but I've never used it.

Floating the "elixir2" widgets gets a little confusing because you have to go through several selections before you can select that as your floating widgets.

Tasker is also not the easiest app to program.

This procedure also works with "Floating Widget" but I switched to "Widget Window" because floating widget did not always open when it was supposed too. I have not tried to use "overlays" but I am assuming it functions in the same way. It just wasn't around when I first did this.

I have an S3 on verizon, which added multiwindow just a couple of days ago so I don't actually need the right widget anymore, but this works so well that I might just keep using it.
