In the latest version of adw you can choose to have no Main Dock (adw settings>UI Settings>Main Dock Style). If you do this you have a completely clean screen and can choose to use a swipe action, such as swipe up, to bring of the scrollable dock bar. This is what i'm doing when i use adw and just bind the app drawer to my home button.

I'm using ADW, but i have no option for a scrollable dockbar? I know how to hide it and all of that, but no option to add more than five shortcuts down there..

That's the main dock. There is a hidden scrollable dock. You enable it through the settings and pick a means of making it appear (button press our swipe gesture.

Launcher with four dock icons?

So I have been looking for a launcher that I can have 4 dock icons, something similar to miui or the galaxy s. I have tried the adw miui hack and twlauncher port but both don't offer very much customization. And I don't think the adw miui hack has been updated for a while.
If any one can help me find something, it would be greatly appreciated.

You can use ADW without the dock (choose the no dock/extend homescreen option) and photoshop on the dock/icons. Then use transparent icons with desktop visualizer or through normal adw shortcuts, just be sure to remove the text.
You can still use the hidden dock - just make a shortcut or swipe gesture to reveal it.
If you don't have Photoshop, you can always use GIMP. It's a free alternative with many similar tools and options.
I'm not really sure of another way. I know that this is possible with ADW EX, but I'm not sure if you can only use the hidden dock with the free version.

That's a good idea. It's a shame that Launcher Pro doesn't allow 4 icons like the OP (and i), would like. Maybe one day...

Hell I wish I knew how to make a launcher lol.

You can also try vLauncher. It works a lot like the MIUI launcher.

you can try this, it is a paid app but i've been using it and it works pretty good, just like adw with 4 dock icons
adw.miui.launcher

Have you tried zeam?

[Q] Launcher Pro dock icons/theme for Go Launcher Ex?

I was using Launcher Pro almost a year and I really like it's dock bar but GO Launcher Ex is a way more powerful than LP.
I'd like to copy LP dock bar into GO Launcher Ex. Yes, I know, you can change dock and icons manually in the settings but it doesn't look the same as original. I even found all necessary images:

http://launcherpro.droidicon.com/sites/default/files/lpicons/camera_0.png
http://launcherpro.droidicon.com/sites/default/files/lpdocks/froyo-bg3_02.png
But as I said, that's not it. :/ Is there any theme or app for GO imitating LP dock bar? Or can you tell me how to extract original dock bar and icons from LauncherPro?
PS: I've noticed that you can assign one app only to one folder in app drawer in GO Launcher Ex, why? I was using FolderOrganizer on LP where you can assign labels (folders) to the app, so one app can be assigned to many folders. Is there any solution for that in GO drawer?

You don't have to quote my message if you're replaying just under my post.
I'm not using ADW Luncher... Well, I think you didn't read my post at all? By the way I already said in previous post that I downloaded all icons and set them manually in dock but I'm not happy with results.
Thanks, but you didn't help me.

I was just suggesting adw as it is more powerful than lp, and I always quote as someone may reply while I am writing! My apologies for trying to help name noted, I won't try in future due to your terse answer, all the best

Oh, don't be angry on me! I prefer GO Launcher Ex, I used to have ADW for some time but I went back to LP. Now is time for GO. The GO team makes pretty good apps and have great support.
Hymm, I think that I just must get used to new dock design.

Ok ok, peace dude

Thank you very much, Dr. Ketan!

I want to replace the dialer icon in the bottom row with dialer One.
I am unable to drag anything to bottom row.
How to do this?
Using rooted India ICS Note

Read above.

In my opinion Use Nova launcher. So much possibility to customize it for your test. You can put up-to 15 apps on scroleble bottom dock. TW is good but i never use it because missing auto rotate feature. In nova launcher you can use your phone in landscape too. try Nova launcher I bet you will never use TW again.
Cheers....
(If you like Nova launcher dont forgate to press thanks button)
.

I could not figure out the instructions that's why I asked again. I press option and then press edit.what next?

I am on the TW launcher(default Samsung note launcher).
It does not allow dragging anything to the bottom(fixed) row.
I tried Nova launcher too, but did not like it. Guess, the only solution is to go try some other launchers.
They require root permission, but no issues, I am already rooted.
Will a launcher slow down the system, or its sort of a replacement to TW launcher?

I tried Launcher Pro, as well as Apex. Did not like them. The widget list available in Touchwiz(like SPlanner) do not show up at all on third party launchers.
Looks like I will stick to my default TW!

I have created video guide will update it when i m in office, just leave a pm to me if i forget.

[Q] Application Shortcuts within Dock

Anyone know how to place an application shortcut like a whatsapp contact into the dock/launcher bar? I was able to do this in stock jelly bean, but can't seem to figure this out in sense 5.

always 2 ways to do this on Android;
press and hold (on home screen and move to dock / on icon from app drawer)
click setting and choose edit
:good:

The problem is that when long pressing shortcuts from the home screen, the dock disappears making it impossible to move the app shortcut into the dock.

I understand an app can be added to the dock from the drawer, but that's not what I'm trying to do. I'm trying to add a app shortcut (i.e. a direct contact) to the dock. For whatever reason, Sense treats these shortcuts like widgets, restricting them from being added to the dock. This is frustrating as I was able to do this in stock jelly bean.

You need to go to the app drawer and then pull the application you wanna replace from the dock to the drawer. Once you have done that you will have an empty space to add the app you want to add to the dock.

I hope they have a fix in the pipeline. I can't be the only person who uses this feature.
