very good im tired of only having so many apps per row. so just to clearify what this does is ya know how on aosp roms we can stick more apps per row and even alot closer to the dock? well this allows more apps and we can squeeze more shortcuts in.

Click to expand...

Exactly! Cept there are no new rows yet. Just scrolling background.

I've been messing with adding more room to both the home screen and app drawer via the tut. Seems that no matter what you do, there are stock widget display issues. Musicplayer widget is the worst offender along with the Accuweatherwidget.

Stock launcher is 4x4. It looks like 4x5 works ok...but there are still widget size issues.
 
So what happens is that the music widget size is normally 4x1 and Accuweather widget is normally 4x2.

Changing the honescreen layout to anything other than 4x4 changes these to 3x1 for the music widget and 4x3 for the Accuweather widget and they don't support horizontal resize.

Most of what I've read states that the only honescreen layout that doesn't do this is 4x5 so I don't think ill be doing 4x6 or 5x6 or any size other than 4x5.

My current issue is that while I have a 4x5 launcher modded, it seems that Ive changed sonething and so the widgets mentioned above are 3x1 and 4x3 respectively.

Still working it out :)
