Is it possible to change the folders size in Nova Launcher? When i create folder it is created with bigger size then the app icons and it looks ugly. I played with the settings but i couldn't find option for changing folders size.
Also, is it possible to change the folder grid from 2x2 to 3x3 and get the same functionality as the folders in iOS?
You can just choose the None option for the folder background so it won't have it icon. It'll just appear as floating app icons but will still have a background when you open the folder. There isn't an option to change the grid size though.
Is there a app that can create folders in the same way they are created in iOS and work on Nova Launcher? One Launcher can do this but i like to use Nova Launcher.
This might work https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.abcOrganizer.lite
I already have tried this app but it doesn't do what i want. As basic functionality it cover the iOS folders, but in details, and i like details, it doesn't come close to the iOS folders functionality. Like adding apps with drag and drop, open the folder and swiping the apps pages inside it, the look and feel are not as the iOS at all.

Hi,
you can add app icons to other homescreens, or you can add a folder to youz homescreen and add apps to the folder.
Hi,
i just stumbled upon multicon, which lets you place 4 icons in the place of which now is 1 icon. Have a look at it:

Is there any way in Folder Organizer to change icons/labels of Android toggles (GPS/Airplane/4G/Mobile) for my HTC EVO 4G?
They don't show up under any of the change options for FO at all like the apps, settings or even shortcuts.
Wifi is considered a settings so is eligible for change but not the above?
Am I missing something?
They're widgets, not shortcuts. You can't edit a widget through Folder Organizer. You can edit shortcuts to those settings, but not the toggles themselves. If you want them to look different, you can use something like Beautiful Widgets that has skinnable toggles (you'll add a Beautiful Widgets widget instead of a "Settings" widget). Or you can change the image files that the toggles use - you'll have to be rooted to do so.
Folder Organizer can only go as far as the Android system will allow, so don't blame the app. You can't put your Facebook widget in Folder Organizer, why would you be able to put another? If you think about it, it makes sense.

I wasn't blaming the FO app.
I was just trying to see if I had missed a step somewhere.
thanks for chiming in with your 2 cents.
ICS added folders on the home screen, but when one is opened it has an ugly black background (see the screenshot). I've looked for launchers that have customization for this, but haven't found any yet. Some, like Apex, lets you customize the background of the folder icon but that's not what I'm talking about.
I have to admit haven't tried all launchers, I've mostly looked at feature lists.
So, my question is, does any launcher or any other program offer the capability to customize the ugly open folder background?
Have a solution
Well, I guess there's no launcher with this feature. I did manage to change the folder background to 50% transparent in Nova launcher with the info found in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1518016. Basically, one needs to change the file portal_container_holo.9.png in the APK. The above mentioned thread provides some examples, like transparent and wood.
This method should work on any launcher based on the original ICS launcher, like Nova and also the modded one discussed in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1412193
so I am using Nova launcher and minimalistic text widget and I am making a theme where there are big blocks of clickable text. One of the things I would like to do is to open a app folder when i click on one of the text blocks. I was thinking I could just make a transparent widget or something above minimalistic text widget because it does not look like there is a way to do that with the app. Is there a way to resize folders with nova launcher? am I better off just using something like Simi folder and setting a big name for the folder and no icon or something?

I use folder organizer. Minimalistic text can choose folder options from that app under shortcuts. Its not idea, but it works.
How can I copy my homescreen icons/layout from Apex to Themer?
What I want is:
1) Copy the homescreen grid shortcut items, folders, widgets.
2) Copy the grid layout, so if it's 7x7 in Apex, it will be 7x7 in Themer.
If I could do this just once that would be great.
If I could add a shortcut to copy them over whenever, that would be better.
If I could mirror, so anything deleted, moved, or added on one would be done to the other....

Hi,
You can change the grid layout in Themer by long pressing on the homescreen - Advanced - More - Desktop - Desktop Grid Size.

Is there any way to copy over the icons and wigits / folders? Maybe an app does it? I've looked at a bunch, I'm guessing it's not developed.

We don't think an app will do this, but copying your icons and widgets manually won't take too long You can then save your layout so you'll never lose it

I've been testing apps and launchers, done a lot of reconfiguring.
Many of the features of a Launcher are also available as separate apps, so it seems the most important is stability, special features, active development. Right now Themer has no search in app manager (which is being redone) but there are a bunch of app manager apps to use instead, none that I'm happy with so far, but the only way to find the perfect setup is to do a lot of reading and testing. So, the app manager that ships with a launcher could be a selling feature, but is not a reason to not go with a launcher.
Unfortunately, few devs code for one-hand use with a dark background / light text in all apps. Most apps have the toolbar on top and the keyboard on bottom, makes no sense to me, everything should be where the user has his finger most.
