Feature request: First let me say, your launcher is awesome! I collect premium launchers and LL has no equal. That said, I’ve got my Note 3 set up w/5 home screens; a main center panel with 4 extension panels as offshoots of the main (home screen) center panel. So, a center, a left and right when swiping horizontally. Then an upper and lower panel when swiping up or down; from the center home screen. (Sorry for the excessive detail. But my request might not totally make sense without the explanation.) REQUESTED FEATURE: Many of the popular and better launchers (Apex and Nova) allow “looping” where swiping left or right doesn’t ever hit a dead end once you’ve swiped to the final screen in any given direction. So my 5 screen configuration; 1 center, 2 horizontal, and 2 vertical screens kind of form a”+” sign if you zoom out. If I hit the final screen in any direction (since LL allows for theoritically an infinite number of screens) a-is LL just keeps allowing the user to”swipe out into space” instead of looping back to another content screen. If both horizontal and vertical swiping looped back (based on screen content) it would add a needed level of efficiency vs. hitting a dead end and having to actually scroll backwards to go from the furthest left panel to the furthest right panel – or top screen to bottom screen. Not only would this feature be more fluid and efficient, it would add a logical elegance to your already phenomenal launcher. Regards and thanks! MarkJ – Huge Fan

    There is a script for looping. Check the script repository or previous posts in the community. I’m pressed for time and can’t help further but I will give you an exact link later.

    Didn’t know. I guess it’s time to learn yet more about LL… Are scripts relatively easy to enable? Thanks for the info and any link you can give.

    Mark Jensen scripts can enabled through a shortcut or a gesture. This one is run by going to the events & actions screen & setting “position changed” to run a script > new script > paste the script from the link gerd reuter gave & name it.

    But make a backup first!


    As I said in the wiki, this script is old and possibly buggy. I don’t know how it behaves on latest Versions.

    This is something that I planned to implement in the past but I had to change my priorities.


    This is theoretically possible, although not always so easy. As far as I can tell the script from Lukas Morawietz does a pretty good job.

    What happens if I have a widget of shortcut that spans the whole desktop? Will I be able to see it twice when the loop occurs?

    That is the limitation with scripts, doing it natively is the only way to draw an object twice.
