v8.7 is ready!

v8.7 is ready!

And there is a BIG changelog. I don’t even know myself how it could grow this way. Maybe this has something to do with the beta…

Since the v8.6b1 release:

– add folder placement options as well as new animations (this is an easy way to create side bars)    

– add open folder action

– add an option to close other folders when opening a new one, and the auto close option will now also work for the desktop

– add support for nine patches (item box and folder window)

– better backup/restore screen

– add support for label selection in Unread Gmail Dynamic Text

– add rotation change events (useful to configure one desktop per orientation for instance)

– improved icon pack support (mask)

– add copy to desktop menu item (only for apps and shortcuts)

– scale stop points when they do not fit in their cell, instead of truncating them (better for small grids)

– add match edge options for stop points

– remove hardcoded ‘close folder’ action in some situations

– folders are no longer automatically closed when returning to home with the home key so that this is consistent with the back key

– enable the dual position option for the app drawer too

– add desktop&position launcher action (same as the shortcut, but easier to configure)

– fixed a problem with unread sms count not always updated

– fix dynamic text tabs

– fix a bug with styles that prevented the use of this feature (crash and other problems)

– fix several bugs with stop points (direction not taken into account, wrong vertical snap and some problems with barrier)

– fix direct dial shortcuts when use in item or gesture events on some devices

– fix a few other minor bugs

Have fun !

    I always use portrait mode, because I don’t like landscape.


    Now in found the perfect action to ‘switch to landscape’: open camera app! And I don’t need to enable rotation in the system settings, only in the actual desktop!


    I wrote this in case is useful to somebody. Thank you Pierre Hébert!

    Amazing TrianguloY !!! As for myself I use my phone 50% for the camera, 50% for the rest. I am always looking for an easier way to launch the camera since nowadays device don’t have a dedicated button anymore. The rotation idea is simply great, thank you too !
