When I go to the ‘configure desktops’ setting inside ‘all settings’ on my mobile phone (couldn’t reproduce it on my tablet), I get a different bar each time!

I attach a collage of some of them

lol 😀

(The buttons works well, and they get fixed when you press them, it’s just the icon)

Is it just me that gets a giggle with all of the posts on android titled “look at my home screen”, and generally it’s just an icon set and a wallpaper?

[Edit for clarity] This is referring to all those Nova with wallpaper type layouts, not LL ones.

I made a backup based on a first loaded theme.

Now I want to load a second theme to try it.

When I would like to restore my backup, can I do it being inside the second theme or must I reload the first theme before ?

The Simple Dialer Widget (tabbed) is not working when added to LL. Is there any special settings required? Am I missing something…

“Elegance”, my newest template for Lightning Launcher and Zooper Widgets

“Elegance”, my newest template for Lightning Launcher and Zooper Widgets … and introducing “Color Styler for Zooper Widgets”

Color Styler was created with Tasker, but exported as standalone APK and can be used to easily completely change the look of your screen through colors. Many presets included.

Created for fun, grew into obsession.

I saw a movie with black screen and background shining through “cut out” text in big bold letters. Thought I might look great on phone and started with LL and ZW. Worked pretty good… then came optimizing, the wish for styling, … that was about two or three weeks ago.

In light of the ability to allow items to rotate in place when switching from portrait to landscape…

I think it would make sense to allow separate portrait/landscape positioning of items even when desktop is locked in portrait.

Is this feasible? At this point that’s all that is preventing a successful dual mode layout.

I think another way to achieve the desired effect would be an option to just lock wallpaper into portrait or landscape, even when desktop is not locked.

Edit:

That may be the most logical method, because really my main reason to lock in portrait is just to keep the wallpaper from screwing up. It’s hard to make a wallpaper that “works” on both portrait and landscape.

I’m quite sure it has been requested before, but still have to ask (or maybe I’ve missed the possibility?):

I’m quite sure it has been requested before, but still have to ask (or maybe I’ve missed the possibility?):

would it be possible to have the status bar act as an overlay (when it’s transparent then widgets could be seen behind it)?

When the status bar is set to be hidden and is brought up by the menu key, then it can be seen as an ovelay, but not when it’s been set to show. 

(Just realized that this can actually be achieved when hiding the status bar and the toggling it back to visible via gesture or shortcut)

And a bug I just found: when I’ve hidden the status bar, pressed menu (status bar becomes visible), disable the menu key from toggling the status bar = status bar is always visible. Even expanding the notification tray doesn’t hide it (usually after closing it the status bar hides itself – accessed via gesture if hidden).

And anothor feature request – could the “expand notification tray” action go straight to the notifications if the status bar is hidden, at the moment the first time reveals the status bar, the second opens notifications.
