This one in particular is not necessary for me, but maybe it’s to someone, tell in comments.

Ok, a simple one: if we have ‘copy style’ why not ‘paste style’?

It will be:

Choose an item(A) pop-up menu-customize-paste style, then each icon you select will change their style to the same as A. Pressing A (or back) will cancel.

It will help if you want to change some icons with the settings of another one (instead of ‘copy’ ‘copy’ ‘copy’ ‘copy’…)

It will also be like a ‘multi select’ feature (not the same, I know) but you would only need to change one of them, then paste the style.

Tell in comments your opinions.

In the latest version, the ability to need to long press before move an item was added. I’m not saying that it is bad, but it can be improved.

My suggestion is to make it in a different way:

In edit mode:

If an item is not selected, swiping from it won’t do anything, even not highlight the item.

When you press an item and release the finger without move it (what is call a click) the item will be selected (and highlighted).

If an item is selected, swiping from it will move it.

If an item is selected, clicking it will deselect it.*

*Also, based on Jacob Lavender suggestion, another improvement will be the ability to select items under the selected. It will be done clicking repeatedly until deselect:

For example, if you have three items in the same position, when enter edit mode clicking them will select: the top most, the next, the bottom most and deselect in this order.

From the programmer side:

when clicking(){

If(Is an item selected?)

[

if(is another item in that position behind the selected one?)

[choose that item]

else

[deselect the selected item]

] else [select the top most item]

}

Not sure if this will work…just another idea :)

Right now we have two main modes: free mode, and layout mode…why? They are almost the same!

My suggestion is to blend both to have a unique and powerful mode.

Why?

For the free-mode fans: you like the power of free placement, but I’m sure you ever wanted to place only one or more icons in a ‘layout’ grid.

For the layout fans: you like having the items in order, but I’m sure you ever wanted to place only one or more icons ‘just a bit out’.

How?

Adding a new function to free mode to have a secondary layout (pierre, you can try with this and then, if it works well, remove the layout mode)

This way, items will have a check box; if it’s unchecked it will act like a normal item in free mode. If it’s checked, it will be attached to the layout. (Or the opposite)

Rotation will have a problem, because we need to define the center, I suggest the center of the item.

I don’t know how difficult is to do this on the programmer-side, but if an item has that checkbox checked, and a position of 3,4 you can calculate “layout.width()*3+item.width()/2” , “layout.height ()*4+item.height()/2” to get the position of the center of the icon, where layout.width() are the size of a slot of the layout (screen.width() / columns)

And, if possible, it would be also useful to have a different layout per icon.

I don’t know how android works (I would like to) so sorry if this is completely impossible. I just want to give ideas, sometimes impossible ideas become possible in other ways, or even give new ideas.
