adding another home screen

Sorry forgot how to add more home screens. Have 7 right now. Can more be added?
 
oh no particular reason....I gather just was curious....Just not enough room for all apps to show and other widgets....I know I could condense into folders but not thrilled with that
 
So you can put 16 app icons on each screen , plus the five in the bottom panel so you've could have up to 117 apps showing on your seven screens. That's quite a bit. I'm going to assume you like widgets a lot so even if you have them on each screen that will cut that 117 total down somewhat. Maybe if some of the widgets are the larger 4x4 ones you could get along with changing them to 4x1 widgets so you'll have more room for app icons?
 
Third party launchers let you change the grid size, increasing the amount of icons and widgets per screen.

They also allow multi page dock with more or less icons, or removal of the dock.

Either way, your best solution is a third party launcher.

Yeah if you are using stock and need more screens might want to get a third party launcher like apex or nova. I tried to max out screens on stock mod but didn't have any effect after recompile.
