Seen this on the homescreen thread. How do I get my dock on the left side of the screen using nova or apex?

I have this on my tablet w/the original HOLO LAUNCHER & can't figure out how to replicate it on my phone, or, replicate it w/other launchers (APEX/NOVA,HOLO HD) on my tablet or phone.
 
Think its a rom that does it, not a launcher.
Ive seen statusbar at bottom usin a rom (cant remember which)
 
Link to the homescreen post. I looked, but must have missed the screen you are asking about.

I do know there is a feature coming to the S3 in the Premium Suite Upgrade called Multi Window that puts a menu on the left side of the screen for selecting what 2 apps to run on a split screen. The PSU won't be available until after JB upgrades are completed for your version of the S3 (and it will have to be carrier approved).

how about a picture of what the OP means?


I'm pretty sure the OP wants to have the dock on the side of the screen,rather than the bottom.I have this on my tablet w/HOLO LAUNCHER & would take a screenshot,but,haven't found an app that'll do that for an un-rooted/stock XYBOARD.
 
well any launcher that allows homescreen rotation will move it to the side in landscape mode, but im not sure i seen it on the side in portrait mode.
 
Yeah thats easily done but it wont act like a dock, be scrollable or have secondary gesture functions for each example.
Maybe thats what op means though

Just do it oldskool n take a pic of it lol :)
 
What they could possibly be doing is simply getting rid of the dock altogether using whatever launcher they have and just adding their own icons on the side to look like a dock.

Yes, I'm almost positive the homescreen in the link a few posts up was done like this. Just looks like a dock.

You can remove or hide the dock on most of the popular launchers afaik, I know apex can do this for sure.
