So Im using miui, and I wanted an app drawer, so I got AltDrawer. I wanted to change the icon and the easiest way was to shortcut it to a widget from Folder Organizer. it's a 1x1 widget, is there any way to put it in the dock?
Not that I've heard. Docks are strictly shortcuts only from my understanding.

I am looking for a setting/script/app that will put a shortcut on my homescreen each time I install an app (Similar to what the Xoom does with HC). I dont like my app drawer and would rather all my apps be right there. If you have ever looked at MIUI you will know what I am talking about. Currently I am using GoLauncher EX.
Thanks!
So i hate using icons for my launcher, so i have used simple text as icons. But i have run into a snag along the way.... How do i modify my app drawer icon? I can change the icon easily. but when u choose what to launch you cant choose the app drawer, you have to physically choose an application, anyone know the way around this?
so you have an app drawer button or no?
I like the app but hate the widget...so is there a way to do this?
Grab AnyCut (F-Droid has it), create an AnyCut shortcut on the home screen and set its activity to WeatherWidgetMain

cool, lemme try that out.
Well, Any Cut crashes on my gs3....any other ideas?
Are you trying to add the shortcut by running AnyCut from its icon in the application drawer? Instead, make space for a shortcut on your homescreen and drag AnyCut from the Widgets section of the application drawer. It works for me on both Nova Launcher Prime and the TouchWiz Launcher. I forgot to state this earlier, sorry about that, but the shortcut takes you to the list of cities you configured - even if there's only one - so you must select your city in order to see the overview.
Resolved.
There is actually a Galaxy S3 Weather app on Play Store that creates an app shortcut for the default Accuweather widget.
It will be handy if Any Cut works on the GS3 though.
Is there anyway to not have text under all app icons while still using the stock Sense launcher? I see ways with enabling other launchers but want to stick with the Sense 4+. I see some apps like desktop visualizer but when using this and if you put the icon in your dock, on the lock screen the app is invisible!!!
It's very simple in what i'm looking for and simply can't understand why it's not easily available? Just want ALL app icons whether they be in the dock, home screen, app list to have no text underneath them. At least not on the dock or any of the homescreens. Would think that many would want the same thing to make the device look so much cleaner? Thanks
Someone has got to have made this but I can't seem to find it. I'm using a "hubs" layout (one screen for social media, one for productivity etc) and I'd like to essentially have a horizontally scrollable launcher widget on each screen with apps that make sense for that hub.
Currently using simi folder widget which is cool, but I'd prefer the launcher bar that is activated by clicking on the folder to live in a widget right on the home screen.
Could anybody point me to a widget app like this? I'm pretty sure I saw a video where someone had this but didn't see details on what they were using. Thanks!
Edit: sorry if this would have been better posted in themes and apps. Please move if necessary.

If I'm understanding you then what you're looking for is a dock that can display icons that are specific to the current page? Something close would be Nova launcher which provides a scrollable dock. If you haven't tried it, I highly recommend it!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Thanks, I'm currently using Apex and I really like it. I don't want just 1 dock (no matter how many pages on it you can scroll through). I want a different set of apps in a horizontally scrolling launcher bar widget. Then I could put an instance of this widget on each of my homescreens with different apps in each one. Then when I swipe from my "Office" homescreen to my "Photo" or "Video" homescreens this "launcher" widget has the appropriate apps for that hub. Hopefully that makes sense.
Like I said, simi folder widget is pretty good for this kind of setup, but I thought there might be a better solution out there.
