Thank you.

[Q] Why is adw not fullscreen?

i have an atrix and i started using adw launcher, i noticed that it is not fullscreen on the homescreen, when i use a theme the dockbar is not extended.. why is this? Is there a way around this?
WHen I used ADW, it was full scale for me. However if you are using custom themes, perhaps the dock was made for a 480pixel wide screen instead of the 540 we have.

Who decided that dock icons should be smaller than other icons?

In almost all custom launchers, dock icons are smaller than normal icons, which makes them harder to press, especially on smaller screens.
Other than ADW EX, I don't know any other launcher that allows us to change the dock icon size or hide the dock all together and put normal icons in that space. For this reason, ADW is the only launcher that I can use. I can't use LauncherPro, Go Launcher EX, Zeam, etc. etc.
This is a horrible idea that doesn't make sense at all to me. I mean, what is the reason behind the dock icons being smaller? What purpose does it serve? Is there any logical explaination that I'm missing?
Anyway, if you know of any other launcher that allows normal size dock icons (other than Touchwiz, please) please post here.
yes you're right
dock apps must be larger than the other because they're used almost more than desktop apps
unfortunintly I don't know any other launcher with big icons

[Q] Best way to get smaller icons without using LCD Density?

LCD Density causes too many problems with the Market and downloading apps, so I'm trying to find an alternate way to get a more minimalistic setup.
Go Launcher looks great at first. It has an option where i can directly set how large I want my screen icons to be all the way down to 48px. Perfect. The problem is it doesn't have any options to customize the dock outside of downloading themes. I hate the way the dock looks, I can't even make it smaller, and I don't need themes.
ADW has the opposite problem. I can fully customize the dock the way I want to but there aren't any options to make home screen icons smaller unless you pay for the full version.
All I really want are smaller home screen icons like how Go Launcher offers, but I can't find any app that does only that, or found any launcher that combines ADW's dock customization with Go Launcher's icon customization.
Any ideas?
The only "solution" I've found is to take a screenshot of my phone, open it in IrfanView on my PC, crop and resize the dock icons, then save them to a folder in the phone and use them to replace the dock icons. I used ADW and miss that function in Go Launcher EX.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Doesn't sound like a very convenient solution...
Is Go Launcher open source? If no one's been able to make an app, I could just see how Go Launcher does it and make a solution myself.

home.apk

Does anyone have a home apk with no dock background and no dock. Or does anyone know the files to mod.
Well, I could "remove" the dock background and icons, but then you would have a big empty space at the bottom..
Would you be able to make it where's there no dock or background but still icons.
Really just looking for a transparent dock.

[Q] Setting homescreen with Nova Launcher

I am trying to make transparent icons, however, nova launcher isn't letting me change them to a .png. It worked on other phones, anyone know why it isn't working?
