I'm trying to figure out how to get some transparent actions on my nova homescreen so I don't have to have the icons in the corners of the screen showing. Right now I just have the icons for the settings, app drawer, nova settings and camera shown in each corner but it looks kinda bad like that.
Anyone know any app or way to do this?

Using ADW Launcher EX and i want the 5 icon dock spacing but only 3 icons. So i would like to put 2 shortcuts in the empty spaces that do nothing - then make the shortcut icon match the background or dock so it is basically invisible.
So, anyone know how i can make a shortcut that does nothing - you tap on it and it does nothing.
Thanks for any ideas.
I've noticed when trying new themes with "theme chooser" on CM7 the dock remains the same, some icon changes at most, is there a way to customize the dock? I would like to add a couple apps on it or change the ones i have atm, mine show the classic dots that indicate the home screen you're on, then phone app, app drawer, internet app and dots again.
I don't think it's customizable without a separate launcher (ADW, Launcher plus, GO Launcher, etc).
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?
What size grid are you guys using that are using Nova or Apex? I tried running 9x7 which is what it seems like it should be at 160 dpi... but then the icon labels don't show up. So I moved it back down to 9x6 and the icon labels show, but now my Asus weather widget is cut off on the bottom. I feel like I've tried every combination, but no matter what I try I can't get Nova to show both the icon labels and not cut off my weather widget.
Trebuchet works, but the grid seems a little small on that TBH, and I like the card stack animation on Nova.
I really like the look and feel of some of the Google Now inspired themes and launchers, like SF Launcher. Particularly I like how different elements of the homescreen scroll independently. ie there is a top bar that is static and the widgets and apps scroll separately.
Is there a way to replicate this functionality on Nova/Apex Launcher or any of the other standard launchers? Specifically is there a way to have a widget that stays on screen when scrolling through pages of apps?
