Root any Sense ROMs with less screens or option to change?

Newbie
are there any sense ROMs that will give the option to switch from the standard 7 screens to less? or is there an option anywhere in the skyraider 3.5 rom to change this?

thanks
 
if you want less screens use launcher pro man you can customize it almost fully and i think the default number of screens is 5
 
cool. thats pretty close to what i was looking for...im not a "huge" fan of the difference where the phone button was being replaced by phone/people/apps/texts/internet, but its not horrible

now i guess i have a secondary question...lets say i organize my apps how i want them on my new 3 or 4 pages and set my phone to use launcher pro every time i hit the home button...if at some point i wanted to go back to the sense layout with 7 pages, and i disable or uninstall launcher pro, would my apps be organized the same way they are right now, pre- launcher pro, or would i have to go back and reorganize them how i want?

TIA
 
Reorganize is unfortunately the answer. I have done it several times since Saturday trying a new rom everyday :-)
 
launcher pro. i have it set to only 3 screens because i never use the other ones... actually, i only use 1 of the 3 that i have it set to right now.

The Sense UI will still look the way that it did when you installed LP - all of your settings will remain.
FYI, an easy way to switch between launchers is the app Home Switcher. You can bring any launcher 'forward' without losing the settings on the others.
 
I think you can make a sense rom only have 5 screens or 3, it takes some hacking, but i thought i saw it in an xml file. I have no idea if itll work or not a dev would need to chime in,
