LauncherPro Beta (SUPER FAST & SMOOTH Launcher!)

[joeLENN1012]

Its really annoying if you have a droid x and you want to re-size the blur widgets (which you can do normally) but with launcher pro it doesn't let you re-size the blur widgets.It just says you have to pay...Kind of frustrating

quick question (that is if it hasn't already been brought up and answered)... Is there a setting that if I noticed I have a missed call and I tap the phone icon to see the missed call it goes to the phone dialer, but I would like it to go to call log instead. Is there a setting in LP, something that needs to be set on the phone itself, or am I SOL and it will always go to the dialer instead of the call log? If this has already been brought up, and I have over looked it I apologize. I tried searching the thread, but didn't see anything.

Have you tried downloading Dialer One from the Market? You can set it to be launched instead of the stock dialer, and what's really nice is that Dialer One has a ton of options you can set, including having it startup in a view with the dialpad on the bottom half of the screen and you call log on the top half of the screen.

Hey, rjax, thanks for the tip. I'd seen Dialer One in the market but couldn't tell from the description. Downloaded that and aContacts.

I think that you can also use LauncherPro by changing one of the dock icons. If you long click on a dock icon and scroll down to contacts, I think it gives you several options including recent contacts (calls). That's what I recall doing, more or less, and it's worked great.

Just started using this since Helix Launcher 2 doesn't work with the 2.2 update. Been using it for 5 minutes so far................and I love it.

Or take advantage of the new swipe gesture feature. Have an icon that you click to go to the phone dialer, and swipe up on it to go to recent calls.

I'm all for simplicity...but I NEEDED use of my screens.
Launcherpro Plus W/ Four screens. ONE dock (didnt need three. I'll use app drawer) Shortcuts on the dock.
Dock gestures (left to right)
#1: Tap: App Drawer Swipeull Down notifications
#2: Swipe: screen previews
#3 (middle)- Nothing
#4: Tap & Swipe: Phone (since the word "phone" takes up two)
#5: Tap & Swipe: Phone
Screen 1: Calendar & bookmarks widget (i changed it..dont feel like updating)
Screen 2: People Widget & (waiting for) "Messaging" widget from Launcher pro.
Screen 3 (Main Screen) Tweetdeck app & "Extended Control Widget" (1x3 seting) and Moxer World widget for the weather).
Screen 4: (Not shown) Countdown widget for my birthday.[/QUOTE]

That is a crafty use of the icons to make the long phone shortcut.

I really like this. Good job! To clarify, so you have some sort of semi-transparent icons that you set up and you docked them all at the bottom?

Also two more things - "Moxer World" widget? I am guessing you mean Moxier? 'Cause it doesn't look like that. But I do like how compact it is. Could you tell me what it actually is?

 

[Detonation]

Not to take any business away from Launcher Pro, but does anyone know of a widget similar to the LPP Calendar? I'd donate for Plus, but since I just got Froyo I'm going to try using just the stock home right now.

I have the Pure Calendar Grid widget, but it doesn't look as nice as the LP one and I don't like it all that much.

 

[Jasko]

Is there anyway to make the icon text LABELS transparent so they don't have that black background to them?

 

[armedmonkey]

there's an option in appearance involving highlights. think that's it

 

[Jasko]

Nah that just changes the highlight color/style of the icon when clicked. I want the icon labels transparent..

 

[seang]

you can hide icon labels under appearance in the settings.
