[Q] Modify layout of VEGAn default launcher?

I love what the VEGAn DEV's have done with my G-Tab versus the crap that came with it. One request would be to modify the size/number/spacing of icons on the screens but I cannot seem to find that as an option in the default launcher? I see that if I use a different launcher I can but so far I have spent a lot of time getting the icons and such setup and do not want to have to start again.
Am I missing something or is screen customization not an option with the default VEGAn launcher?
Running 5.1.1
Thanks!

Try Launcher Pro!

Exactly. Used other homes but I have always gone back to LP. The donate version has awesome Widgets and you can resize Widgets which comes in handy on the gtablet. Oh ant the transition effects are amazingly cool. Free version is Rad, donate version is Rad +10%.

Zeam free version lets you size Widgets and I love the dock

Which is the BEST HOME LAUNCHER??? (speed, stablility, smoothness,etc.)

Which launcher is the best home launcher for the g1 and WHY.

Launcher Pro, Zeam, and the Stock Launcher imo

I use Zeam Launcher; number of screens: 1.
It is important for a G1 to use a launcher who can build itself up quick, because everytime you use your keyboard, the homescreen is rotating, and have to build up again.
The more screens with widgets you use, the more time a 'screen-rotate' costs.

I end up using GO Launcher EX, that is the best one I found yet. Stock (ADW Launcher) seem to have too much problem.

I use ADW simply because of the fact it is the only one I found that allows me to create custom shortcuts.
The others don't give me that flexibility.

I use LauncherPro because it is the smoothest out of all the launchers I have tried. I don't customize it that much so its fine.

zeam, light and fast.

zeam is fast, stable and doesn't lag while switching screens

Scrollable widgets touchwiz launcher

I'm running gb-12 rom right now and I'm just wondering if there was any possible way to have scrollable widgets on a touchwiz launcher (touchwiz 4).
I find the touchwiz launcher much more stable, smooth and responsive compared to more feature packed launchers like adw ex or launcher pro.
I would love using the touchwiz launcher as my primary launcher if it could use scrollable widgets.

..anybody?

No not unless the launcher supports it and very few stock launchers do. I would get a different launcher

Damn....
touchwiz 4 is so buttery smooth compared to launcher pro and adw (when it's not being buggy)

try go launcher

I've gotta try this, thanks.

I actually just downloaded this app called Android Pro Widgets and the contacts widget actually scrolls (After the hit the scroll button) it's one small extra step but worth it to keep touchwiz. Try it and see if you like it

launcher questions

i hope this is the right section if not please move. but is launcher pro the only one where u can change the icons without using a theme. i like changing the app draw icon like now im using mosaic(sp) icon. but im kinda tired of launcher pro and looking for something different, but i keep finding myself coming back to launcher pro.

Go launcher can do what you want.

thanks ill give it a try.

Multiple Launchers
If I have multiple launchers installed (or even just 1 extra than the stock launcher), do they all use system memory even if I have a default set? I'm using Serendipity VII, which I love, but I want to customize the icons so I've installed Go Launcher.
Am I taking a performance hit by using a different launcher?

As far as I know, no**, you won't take a performance hit by using a different launcher.
**Caveats:
1. As long as the launcher you use isn't a memory hog by itself.
2. As long as you check and make sure TouchWiz (or any other launcher) isn't showing up as a running process while you're using the other launcher.

Adw ex gets the job done, sure you have to pay for it but in my experience it gives me the best battery life and it's smooth as butter. I'm running darky's 10.2.2 and ADW beats go launcher and Launcher pro, just as responsive and snappy, way better battery life =)

I'd say use launcher pro plus/ adw free/donate version. I was huge fan of go launcher and widgets but after watching this http://youtu.be/iGPbvzPvkWw I am not sure if its really safe or not. Also if you really care about the performance use zeam as said in video, it is very very light on memory...

I bought LauncherPro after using the free version that DG had put into one of the Cognition roms. I loved it so much I bought a license. It's smooth, responsive, and very customizable, although I have left it stock.

ADWex for me all the way....GO Launcher was always laggy for me and I never liked Launcher Pro
OR you can try Launcher 7 PRO....which I made tiles for...this is what it looks like.

i agree adw ex works the best for me and has a lot of features. Launcher pro is probably the smoothest but has a few bugs and very few features. Go launcher is also great too if you want a free launcher with a bunch of features
