Making horizontal scrolling stop on the last page

[sergeyv2002]

I am new to Android: graduating from an iPhone.
I was wondering if there is a way to stop at the last page when scrolling home pages horizontally?

Your help is very much appreciated.

Depends on what phone you use and what launcher.

The phone: Samsung Galaxy S2X.
Launcher - default gingerbread launcher.

Actually, if its default its the TouchWiz launcher (All Samsungs except for Nexus uses TouchWiz launcher).

On the answer to the query, since its running a new version of TW compared to mine, I can't be sure, but from what I know you cant change it on the TW launcher. You can change the orientation of the scroll though.

You can try using a different launcher with that feature though.

Thanks for your reply.

Any recommendations on an alternative launcher?

The most popular ones are Go Launcher and Launcher Pro. Personally I use Go as I like it better.

Thanks a lot. I'll give it a try.
Since you already have the Go Launcher installed, could you confirm that the Go Launcher does indeed have this feature (stop horizontal scrolling on last page)?

It does. You have to go to preferences and set the app drawer to horizontal page by page. Horizontal loop would give you what you have now. I personally prefer vertical continious though.
