Can the shortcuts you create in anycut be displayed on the home screen of the nook tablet instead of a launcher?
No. At least, not that I've found.

I would like to know if there is an app/widget that I can use to jump between home screens which aren't next to each other?
For example, if I number my home screens from 1 -> x from leftmost to rightmost screen. I would like to be able to press a widget which allows me to jump from screen 1 to screen 4, or 5, or 6 e.t.c. without having to slide through 2 and 3 and so on.
I presume that this may have to be part of a custom launcher which is no problem. I have bought most of them now anyway so don't mind if I have to switch to another.
Tasker should let you do this. i tried to test it but I use ADW ex, doesn't seem to be supported.
Go Home
Go to the current system Home Screen.
If the Page parameter is greater than 0, the home screen is requested to start on that page.
At the time of writing, Launcher Pro and Car Dock Home (v3) supported this option. If your Home Screen app doesn't support it, you could contact the developer and refer them to Tasker's developer page: tasker.dinglisch.net/developer.html for info on how to include it.

Most of the launchers, that I have used has this screen selection when swiping with 2 fingers.
One that surely has it is Zeam Launcher.
In ADW EX, you can add a link to another screen the same way you add any other shortcut. I believe when you choose Add, it's inside the top option (ADW Shortcuts?) and then at the bottom.
I have no phone, so this is subject to change
Thanks for the tips everyone. It certainly was a lot easier than I thought heh. The implementation within ADW EX is working fantastically.
Hey guys,
I really want to add a shortcut to the app drawer in the middle of my homescreen. I can't find the ability to do this anywhere. No widgets, apps or shortcuts I can find lead to open my app drawer. No, I don't want a folder, I just want to open my app drawer. I've used the search button, no one seems to have an answer.
Bump? Anyone?
What launcher are you using? ADW and Launcher Pro both allow this, and probably other launchers too. On ADW it's just press and hold on an empty space, select Launcher Actions and then Open/Close App Drawer.
If you want to change the icon you can press and hold the existing one, select edit and browse to an alternative.
I have rooted my nook tablet. Using a honeycomb launcher
by syndicate apps. Now my problem is I can't place shortcuts in
my home screen. I've been trying to get anycut to work but after
making a shortcut newshortcut > activity > android keyboard debug
nothing shows up (Im trying to change the keyboard)
I've tried searching for a solution here but haven't found one. Anyone
found a way to solve this?
Have you tried unchecking and rechecking both USB debugging boxes? Occasionally that messes up the functionality of apps that require root to function (think Anycut does). What you're doing should work.
I did that and still nothing
Have you tried a power cycle? Worked for me.

The first time I tried Anycut, I was using ADW Launcher and the shortcuts wouldn't appear on its home screen. Then I happened to go into Go Launcher which was installed but I wasn't really using at the time, and there were the shortcuts I had created. I have since switched to Go Launcher as my only launcher and the shortcuts appear every time. Just a thought, but maybe try having Go Launcher installed at least next time you try Anycut & see if they show up there. Worked for me.

I'm running into the same problem as BryanSo. I've tried all the aformentioned suggestions and I still can't make shortcuts or folders. When I try, the word "Honeycomb Launcher" in a box shows up on the top of the screen and disappears a few seconds later.
Sounds like a problem with honeycomb launcher. Did you guys try GoLauncher like 150pilot suggested?
When you install any alternate launcher, it should bring back the option to switch to it with the n key- so you can always try it, and then uninstall it and reset your default.
Same happens to me. Alrite ill give go launcher a try
Got it to work it was a problem with the launcher thanks
I am having this same problem with Honeycomb Launcher. I will try Go Launcher...
Once you get your CM10 desktop how you want it, how do you lock it. On CM7 you could lock all the widgets and icons. I can't find where to do this in CM10.
Depends on what launcher you use. I don't think the default Trebuche has this function. If it does, I couldn't find it so I use other launchers instead (I go between a couple and haven't decided which one to go with yet... At the moment I'm on ADW).
Looking under settings for CM10. There should be a lock screen option under launcher.
You can select how to lock the tablet from there.

Are we talking the same screen locks here? I interpret the OP to be about locking how your home screen looks so you don't unintentionally move apps and widgets around. Not the lock screen that kicks in when you turn off the device. Is there really an option for that when using Trebuchet launcher? Must look when I get back home to my Tablet!!
I just updated my Nook Table to 10.1.3 and I'm using Go Launcher EX. Everything is working great but I have a question about boot-up. When my Nook boots up my security screen is in horizontal position. I use my Nook in the vertical position so I have to flip my Nook to horizontal to enter my PIN number. Once I enter my PIN and login my desktop will rotate to vertical.
Anyway to force Go Launcher EX to start-up in the vertical position?
Thanks!

That acutally depends on the particular ROM you're using. I'm using the current release of Jelly Beer, and it has an option in the settings for allowing the lock screen to rotate. I would assume the same for other ROMs, though I don't specifically recall it on any of the other ones I've tried out.
