No one, except perhaps a fellow bass player might dig this, but if you change the wall paper that theme is gone.

I may post a more generic one.

Thank you to +Chris Sledge for the clock. Just changed the hands to gold. Wallpaper photo by me.

Tiny white icons converted to gold w/ plenty of 9 patch.

Would it be possible in app drawer to implement auto-categorization?

Would it be possible in app drawer to implement auto-categorization? I mean, categories could be pulled from Play Store and folders created. I know there are other apps for this (I’m using Folder Organizer for ages now), but it’d be great to have “native” LL folders.

Today I got my first tablet. Tablet (back, home, recent apps) has a different key than the phone (menu, home, back).

Please Pierre … add to gestures buttons (back, recent apps), and long tap this button (menu, home, back, search, recent apps).

Please, please, please, I can not wait forever. 😉

Suggestion. Allow a gesture to trigger multiple actions.

Suggestion. Allow a gesture to trigger multiple actions.

Example: have folders on that open from different sides, let’s say right and left. Have one gesture open the right one and then the left one giving multiple sidebars. Similar to being able to close them. Or even have swipe right open right sidebar and close left sidebar, and vice versa.

Allow selection of multiple actions with an interface to reorder them.

Pierre Hébert, is there a practical size limitation of templates on your Template Packager?

Pierre Hébert, is there a practical size limitation of templates on your Template Packager?

I’ve done 4 no problem, but the one I have still been unsuccessful with is much bigger. Could that be the problem? Do you get logs from the Packager?

New version of my light theme for LL contest.

New version of my light theme for LL contest. Now there is no more widgets and the grid is a 5×5 to adapt to all phones sizes. In that theme, i used sliding folders. The background picture is too heavy to be included in a LL apk and would have to be replaced by a far more lighter image. I’ll try to find a free one (or create mine).

ps : That theme was made on my 10′ tab with 200 dpi parameter (stock rom is 240 dpi) and that is the reason of so small text caracters. On a standard phone, the text would be larger and more easy to read.

I was thinking about LL today and how quick Pierre is to reply, and fix things, as well as being involved and supportive of this community.

So basically thanks for being what many of us love in a developer .. Open, engaging and very positive. On top of that you’ve made a fantastic launcher.

Now give us feature X! (Joking.. Don’t need anything)

What version should we target?

What version should we target? I am preparing using LLX, added some LL Action shortcuts and Dynamic Text. Loaded a backup into LL on another device, text simply vanished, but actions caused errors when clicked.

Also I found an obstacle: adding a Go to Desktop and Position majorly failed when loaded on a device with not only different resolution but also different aspect ratio. Hoped LL(X) would take care of that and transform the coordinates.

Third thing: should the theme be more some sort of a feature showcase or a basic desktop pretty much usable from start for new users? I’m working on the later one, thinking a theme demonstrating as much features as possible should be downloadable as some kind of tutorial, but not a default theme. This might frighten new users.
