There is a problem with the new per item rotation and panels.
I create a panel with 1×3 dimensions (3 is its height). Both the containing desktop and panel grid have the same parameters, the grid cells are square shaped.
I put two app shortcuts into the panel. The center home screen inside the panel is empty, one of the shortcuts is placed onto the middle cell of the left screen, and the other shortcut is placed onto the middle cell of the right screen in the panel. This way they aren’t visible normally.
Now set the auto rotate option of the panel item.
What happens that the two icons will nicely rotate into view when the phone is held sideways.
The problem is that they can’t be clicked.

Another idea for folders.
The problem is that if you want to “custom” align a folder, you only can specify this from left and top, but not from right or bottom.
Furthermore if you set the align to eg. left, that’s the same if you set it to custom and value to 0. This isn’t a problem, just a duplicated option, as the result is the same.
My suggestion is the following:
1. Eliminate the option “custom” because it’s unnecessary.
2. The exact number selector options below, which activate when “custom” is selected, now should activate when either left or right (or top or bottom) is selected. The labels of these maybe should be changed to “Distance from specified horizontal/vertical edge” (If they can’t be changed dynamically to left/right, top/bottom edge).

A little idea for folders:
leave the folder icon in the selected state, while the folder is open.
(or the element from where the folder were opened, in case the folder open action is specified with gesture or long press)

Hi.

Hi. Let’s say that I have the following desktop layout, like on the picture. So items are arranged on pages in a form of a plus sign.
Is it possible to block scrolling, so that I can’t normally scroll to the (empty) pages marked with an x?
I fiddled around with scroll stop points, but I couldn’t achieve this.
