Are tehre any launcher out there that have a vertical scrolling screen so I can put all my widgets on one screen then just scroll up and down that one screen? I know Espier Launcher can do it, but the problem with that one is that I can not resize widgets.
SSLauncher
Launcher 7 does it too. You're restricted in Launcher 7 to the tiles but it will allow you to do it.

Lightning Launcher. In my current setup I have a couple widgets pinned (stationary) on the right half of the screen and a bunch of shortcuts and widgets on the left half of my screen that I can scroll up and down.

Has anyone else noticed the stock launcher gets very slow/laggy when there are a lot of icons on the homescreens?
Try this: Fill one of the home screens completely with shortcuts to various apps, after each app try sliding between screens by dragging your finger across the screen, or try moving the icons around. after about 5 or 6 i find it to get slow, and after completing an entire row the lag is very noticeable.
Put all those icons in a folder and its back to normal speed. Anyone else notice this? are there any fixes for this?
Try apex launcher or nova launcher, adw ex, go launcher hd, go launcher ex, trebuchet launcher.
Stock launcher works well for me. I have Widgets and tons of icons n folders. No lag at all swiping screens and no lag at all with app launcher.
i have no problem with the app launcher just the homescreens have lag when i have too many icons.
You say with the stock launcher you have no lag? what version are you running and how many icons do you have on various different screens?
I noticed that some of the Samsung widgets fit the width of the screen, but a lot of them are not long enough to go all the way across the screen. Is there anyway to make them wider?
yeh, by using a different launcher
u can adjust widgets with go launcher.
That's the 2 reasons why I don't use the stock launcher : can't resize the widgets and they are not scrollable.
Title said its all. Any launcher for Gingerbread? Thanks all

TSF launcher will allow for 7 rows 6 colums and you can fill the dock with as many icons as you like since it slides in from the side and scrolls up and down throw your dock list.
thats the only one that i know of. but i have read of other launchers that have the 7 dock option somewher made for the note.

Go Launcher will let you customize. I've tried 8x8 but settled on 7x7 with a 240DPI.
Sorry my bad - was thinking the home grid setting changed the dock as well, this is not the case. Dock is still locked to 5 despite home grid setting.
Maybe Go Launcher HD will do it if you drop your DPI below 214?
Since when does Go Launcher have a 7 icon dock?
Zeam launcher meets those requirements of yours. Not too many options for customization but it is light and fast.
Yep go launcher

Running CM9 (coffeebeans 4/30 build with latest pershoot kernel) on wi-fi 10.1, using Apex Launcher Pro.
I really enjoyed the old app drawer that didn't eat up the entire screen. In the new update, the apps in the app drawer take up the whole screen (similar to Nova Launcher, very different from Trebuchet). This is annoying because I love tapping the left or right of the screen to fast-switch app drawer screens. Yes I know technically the feature is still there, but more often than not, I hit an app instead of making the screen change because the space is so small now (beefy thumb syndrome).
Anyone here know if there's an option to go back to the old app drawer look? I posted at the Apex forum, but that place is a ghost-town filled with pr0n
Is there a way to scroll vertically thru home screens? I currently use apex launcher pro and don't mind changing launchers. I use simple text for my icons and want to scroll down with icons on the left side of screen.
Thanks
