Scrolling with wheel.

Hi there.
Is there a plugin which will delete scroll bars from today screen. I just wan't to scroll my today screen with the scroll wheel so that there are no scroll bars present.
This would a lot when using keyboard because scroll bar is so small when using phone with keyb. so it would be nice to be able to scroll the whole screen not only the bottom part of today screen.

You either need to remove some items from the today screen or make them smaller (if that's an option).

I would like to have more items on today screen but I'm annoyed by that horrible scroll bar.
My friend has a small hp ipaq smartphone and it has this kind of "no scrollbar" function.

How to set Home Screen?

Hi:
I am brand new to Captivate (from a Tilt 2), so am exploring Android. So far I am in love with it.
I have searched, and can't seem to find how to set the Home screen. What I mean is, I found how to edit screens (add, remove). But, for some reason the Home button always takes me to the screen farthest to the right. I would like for it to take me to the center screen. How do I do this?
Thanks!

I think on TouchWiz, if you only have 3 homescreens created, the default will be the one on the far right. If you create more homescreens (say 7), it will be the one in the middle. Try adding more homescreens to the right of the one that is defaulted for you right now. Then once you get the one in middle as your default, you can delete the ones to the far left and right if you don't want all 7 screens. Hope this makes sense.

The default is the one with the little home icon at the bottom. You can put it anywhere

Hi:
WD33- Thanks so much. I tried that. I have added and subtracted a million screens, but there seems to be no rhyme or or reason (sometimes it's the farthest one to the left, sometimes it's the second to last etc), and I can't seem to get the middle one as home.
Dani:
Thanks for your reply. I don't see the little home icon. You do mean in the edit screen to edit tabs, right?
Thanks again to both of you!
EDIT: Well, after much trial and error, I had to go back to the original 7 screen layout in order to get the center screen to be home.

Multiple screens with no scrolling

Hi everyone! How can I make three screens with no scrolling, that is I can't swipe between screens but can select the screen by pinching in and selecting the screen. I need this because I am trying to make a screen where it has shortcuts to go to the next screen. So I want to restrict swiping between screens and only use those shortcuts. Any help is greatly appreciated.:laugh:

Use SSlaucher

Try SSlauncher.
I had exactly what you described on my Galaxy S in it worked perfectly. My screens were set up similar to an old telephone address book. On the right hand side of every one of the 9 screens I had were the numbers 1-9. I was the "home" screen. Under the numbers, that went from the bottom to the top of the screen were short description on what was of that screen. Things like "Home", "Office", "Daily", "Games", "Photo"
It was a joy to use and looked very cool with a smooth transition from screen to screen called "Flow".
One of the nicest things -apart from not having to swipe all the time- was that from the "Home" screen to screen 9 did not mean that 8 other screens had to fly past. The next screed regardless of the number always appeared to be the next screen!
SSlauncher also allows you to switch of "swiping" and even have a different background on each screen.
One warning. Do not be put off buy the developers terrible examples on the Play Store or the learning curve. Go to www.mycolorscreen.? for inspiration.
Don't hesitate to pm for help if you need it.

[Q] Re Arranging Home screens

Every time I add an additional home screen it goes to the far right,
I can't seem to move it to another position say far left.
I have tried going into the widget bit long holding the screen I want to move and dragging it, but it doesn't work, only way to do it would be to move all the widgets across one by one.
Any help would be great,
Aaron

the only way is make a new screen the home screen so if you want one screen on the left and 2 on the right make the 2nd screen the home screen or the last screen the home screen
i hope that makes sense

[Q] Moving Home Screen

I was wondering how to move my home screen from the one on the far left to the center screen? I have looking for a way for a couple hours and can't find it.

No way to do it on the stock launcher.

Haven't found one either

I haven't found a way either. I bought my phone Thursday, the moment it was released. Prior to that, while researching some pre release reviews (I read so many, Phone Arena, Droid Life, CNET, etc etc) I ran across a review lamenting the fact that the home screen was moved to the left instead of the center, but I can't remember which site it was. I had the Home screen in the center on my 2013 Droid Maxx and then I had screens to the left and right with various themes (this is my media, music and movies screen, this is my games screen, this is my productivity, etc). The location of the Home screen on the Turbo is where I had my music, movies, and media on my Maxx. It was weird getting used to the Home screen being all the way to the left, but after a few days I'm fine with it.

Just move the stuff on your home screen to a different page...

Home is Home

If he moves the stuff on the Home screen to a different page when he hits the Home button it will take him to a page he doesn't want.

Long press on a blank part of any screen, widgets and wallpaper option appear at the bottom. At this point you can long press any of the pages and move them around.

Thanks, that's useful. But it doesn't solve the problem that pressing the "home" button takes you to the leftmost screen. It was much handier having it take me to the center screen, from which I could swipe left or right for my three main screens.

Can't be done on the Turbo, without a 3rd party launcher.

Nova works the same as stock with more customization. I'd recommend trying it

Exactly. Nova is also very fast.
Plus you can add number of screens, decide how many rows/columns of icons you want per page.
You can upload backups of your screen layout to Dropbox or email, so any future phone can have the layout you want.
Lots of stuff.
I even have a different icon theme than Kitkat, downloaded from Google store.
