I have a folder with a specific height and I have scrolling set to horizontal.. When I compact and sort my items it places them with way to many rows before moving over to the next page..
I think it may have to do with edit mode being full screen
This is because the sort option make them left-to-right and then up-to-down. Like when writing.
What you need (I think) is the opposite: up to down and then left to right. Exactly like the app drawerof the free version when you set the scrolling to horizontal. I wanted to suggest this…here it is Pierre Hébert
The ability to sort items in columns instead of rows (with a checkbox or when the scrolling is set to horizontal only and fit desktop to items)
In the beta release for sorting it was just like that.. Something changed in the release after… But to be honest, I’d really prefer it to be this way.. I just want the icons to fit on the page
Pierre Hébert, I figured out the root of my issue.. In the folder settings, I have rows set to a fixed size (170px), however ‘fixed number’ was set to 8.. I changed that setting to 4 and then switched back, and it works perfect..
Ok I understand the problem now. The code need to get a number of colums/rows per screen, and it used the standard field for this.
In this situation it should divide the total screen size by the size of rows/columns.
Regarding the layout I think there are two options: the simple one which is implemented in LL, and the “paginated” one found in LLX and other launchers.
What could be done is display a confirmation box, with the paginate option, and the number of rows/columns before to actually move items.

Should be a pretty easy fix
