Squished icon text in adw - Motorola Droid RAZR

Hey, not sure if this is the right place to post this but im using adw launcher ex on my razr and the icon text I squished. I've gone through the settings to see what I could adjust but didn't come across anything that could possibly fix it. Any suggestion. A pic is attached.

ADW is designed to show them like that.

Really? Seems like an odd way to have things laid out. Is there anyway to change this?

Sure is a way to change it, I'm not a fan of it either.
ADW Settings -> UI Settings -> Icons -> Untick 'New Icons'.

Well, I know this thread is old but I ran into the same problem.
Unticking "New icons" really solves the "messy" icons text but .. It keeps labels in one row which cuts on the sides.
Is there any way to get the icons test in two regular rows ?
Thanks,
Gil

How to change app drawer background with ADW?

I don't have "drawer background", just "background color" that lets me change the color (?).
Don't see the point of answering like this when you don't know what my problem is.
That is what your question asked. What else are you trying to do?

I would like a neutral pattern or texture, and not my homescreen wallpaper or a plain one color background.
Adw only has an option for background color (with out without transparency)....no custom images.

ADW Launcher EX question.

Using ADW Launcher EX and I cannot get anything to go all the way to the top of the screen. I've looked through the settings and I'm not seeing anything to fix it. Anyone know what I need to do?

try going into "main dock style" in UI settings and select none(expand desktop). You'll have to use the hidden dockbar as your main dockbar, but it should fix your issue.
That fixed it. Thanks!

ADW EX update

Anyone else like the previous ADW version better than the new updated version? No hidden dockbar is killing me.

I don't use ADW Ex but I saw this on my twitter feed yesterday.
@davekover ADW EX users: To hide your dockbar in the new update, set a gesture swipe action to 'open/close dockbar' -- temporary solution.

Hope it helps!
Ya that's what I'm doing for now but it is impossible to set up the launcher like I had it before. Now whenever you hide the dockbar it also moves all icons and Widgets on screen as well and its very choppy. Glad they said temporary fix. Maybe they'll add it back in.

It's starting to grow on me. Not updating it on my tablet though, because apparently, the update messes up my homescreen setup (Hubs).
Good to know..
I haven't updated yet.
Im gonna save a copy of this apk b4 I check it out
Previous version was definitely smoother for me, hoping for an update to fix that. Adjusting to it but since I didn't use hidden dock that much the transition hasn't been as hard as it might be for others.
Just switched to adw today. For 10 cents how can you go wrong? Coming from go launcher it is a slight change, but growing on me. Had to get Android pro widgets because I missed my go launcher Facebook widget. Not as many effects but seems a little smoother.

adwsettings > interface > dock > "dock as overlay"
What worked for me to hide the dockbar was to make the swipe up gesture to hide the dockbar, then once it was gone change the swipe up gesture back to what i wanted it to be (which was app drawer for me), and the dockbar stayed hidden! I hope this wasn't too confusing and I hope this helps!

That setting change is a great alternative to what in used to. This will work for a bit, but I'm still hoping that they add back the hidden dockbar as well

yeah me too, I was expecting a choice of launchers like the video showed, but after it installed it went to ADW only, so I spent a while re-doing my screens
to the folks missing the hidden dock bar, can't you just hide it? I made the swipe-up show/hide it. I don't know what I'm missing since I didn't see the old verision.
also adw notifier quit working on my widgetlocker lockscreen (but that was before the install).
I used the preset fast and this thing zooms now

Paid for EX like a year ago. Loving the update because it finally allows the ics dock to scale properly.
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
so is it just me, or do other people have to tap 3-4 times to launch stuff on the dock? If I pull the icon off the dock and put it back on it works on one tap. the tap is registering because the icon highlights blue, but it commonly takes a few tries...?

ICS bugs!!!!

post them here and what version u have phone/software
x912 verizon / rooted ICS .211
when using the keyboard in the text app the keyboard stops vibrating after a couple key presses.....works at first....i think this feature is called tactile feedback
.211
Using a diff launcher (apex and nova) the widget menu (home screen long pressed) is unreadable.
The vibe/silence option on the lock screen will get changed depending on the last option used-not sure if bug
Annoying keyboard options in the notification tray whenever the keyboard is up.

Where specifically in the L&I menu is the notification option. I'm using swiftkey and don't see anything about that notification.
Sorry, it looks like I was mistaken, I was going to go right in and take a screen shot, but searched five minutes and couldn't find it.
Battery life is bad and Gps doesnt lock on fast.

Keyboard notification is not a bug. It was present on the HTC OneX running 4.0.4 as well as the GS2 running 4.0.3. Its a "feature". I also dont like it.
Great. I didn't even notice the KB notification until this thread. Now it's annoying the hell out of me. :laugh:
keyboard notification is a quicker way to switch languages (like if you are typing in spanglish)
only bug ive found was the lack of a 4G toggle.

This, on Zeam as well. At least Nova still shows widgets in app drawer.

Beans 10...can't change lock screen wallpaper

Over the weekend I swapped from CleanRom Lite to Beans build 10. I noticed that I can no longer change the wallpaper background on my lock screen. I use golauncher and also noticed that I am no longer able to change app drawer wallpaper background.
Anybody else seeing this problem?

Are you using the gallery to change it. It will not work with the 4.2 gallery if you selected that in aroma during install. No sure about go launcher tho as I haven't used that since pre-ics days
So when I go to that option, it only allows me to pick a wallpaper using gallery. It won't allow me to use any of the other media apps like quickpic...
Can that be changed? How can I have the phone allow me to use quick pic at the choose lock screen wallpaper selection screen?

Here's what mine looks like even after I change lock screen wallpaper using quick pic to set.

You need to open gallery, find the pic you want, hit menu, then set as. This will bring up options where to set it
After I do that, the wallpaper remains the same. This really isn't that big of a deal, just a small thing I would like to be able to do. Any thoughts on why it won't take?
I will try restarting the phone and see if that does anything...

Hmmmm. Not really sure from here. Could be an issue from the pin lock? Have you tried changing it to swype and see if it works? If not I'm not sure, maybe a go launcher issue.
