I was going to post about the margin issue (and I sent a report via the Android bigfix tool), but apparently Kevin's a ninja. :cool:
[Nova Launcher] Jet300:
Wow. This launcher is great. Seems like everything is fixed now ... Love it.

One question, can someone please tell me there are supposed to be no icon labels on the home screen in landscape mode? I am using the 4x4 grid layout.

Thanks!
[Nova Launcher] jhericurls:
The desktop would be tiny.
[Nova Launcher] im.nick.hello:
On my friends kindle fire it did the same thing
[Nova Launcher] OSully:
Beta10 is a beast. Thanks for the quick fixes, Kevin.
[Nova Launcher] Jet300:
OK. Good to know. Thanks!
[Nova Launcher] kevin@TeslaCoil:
It's not documented anywhere (and will be at some point) but labels will automatically be hidden if there isn't enough available space to show the icon and the label. (this isn't fully working on tablet, so in some configuration labels get cut off on them). This can mean no labels in landscape but labels in portrait.

Icons aren't scaled to fit for performance reasons. Not sure if I'll offer scaling as an option in the future or not. (I don't think any existing launcher does, i think they just crop the icon/label)
[Nova Launcher] P-bot:
You put in the margin thing! Can't wait for this to go pro so you can get some money for all your hard work.
[Nova Launcher] darrendm:
Cannot delete home screens still. You can only add them. (Beta10)
[Nova Launcher] xI mEzMeRiZe Ix:
Wow thanks for listening to the feedback and making Beta 10 great, though I still have a minor complaint about margins again. The dock icons now seem to be more spread out than before (Beta 7), which is kind of annoying.
[Nova Launcher] Skilover:
Once it's working correctly in general, I strongly second both suggestions!
[Nova Launcher] adl:
Can't get it either, guess he pulled it back, maybe he found a bug or something. It will be back online soon imho.

This is a major lack of Nova for those who use a 12x12 home screen grid or a little smaller.Resizing of an app icon in the home screen must be independent to the size of icons in the app drawer.I ll put it in the requests if it's not already there.

See the attachment to understand perfectly what i mean ( look at the mx player app icon ) :

I have continued in the Drawer crashes, in the widget area with latest Beta & Samsung Galaxy S4.

But there is a larger error, for example if you take on a theme, then Nova Launcher is stopped (FC).

Is not fixed with latest Beta3, hope in Future. ;)

Thank You for your good work. :good:

[Nova Launcher] PhilipTD:
What widgets are you using?
[Nova Launcher] killchain:
UCCW, but same thing happens with Minimalistic Text widgets.

See this post, I've explained the same thing with a little more words.

If you have time, please try the same thing. The widget is called 'Jelly Line' and is available from this page, although the bug, in theory, would manifest with any widget using a background or a shape across the whole widget's width and the widget is stretched across 7 columns.
[Nova Launcher] PhilipTD:
Did you try changing the background width?
[Nova Launcher] killchain:
Of course I did, but it rather seems like a bug in Nova - Minimalistic Text also does this even if it scales in a different manner when the widget is stretched (resized).

P.S. If you examine Jelly Line closely, you'll see that it has a rectangular shape (and not a background for the whole widget) - it should go from edge to edge, but having set 7 columns, it doesn't.
[Nova Launcher] PhilipTD:
I bought the widget but it didn't show up, so I wasn't able to test it. Btw, just out of curiosity, why can't you change the grid to 6 columns?
[Nova Launcher] killchain:
I want a centred app drawer icon that doubles as a homescreen folder. That circle you can see on the screenshots in the linked post is exactly that and when I set an even number of columns, the icon will go either left or right. Hence 5 is too little and 9 is too much.
[Nova Launcher] PhilipTD:
Wow, this is really frustrating. I've been trying to get a widget to the edge by changing the grid, background, and initial widget dimensions and am having the same problem as you. I never noticed this bug before. Well, I'll keep on it for a while and see if I can't come up with something. Maybe I'll get lucky. I'll report back.
[Nova Launcher] WelCoMe2DeT:

[Nova Launcher] pakino2004:
First of all its a great launcher an it worked perfect in the past wit slim and 10.1 alias 4.2

[Nova Launcher] killchain:
If you read several posts before the one you tried to criticize, you may get that I was describing a specific thing I was not being fully able to achieve with the launcher because of a bug, it appears. If something's off topic, it's your last few comments, no wonder why this thread is becoming a bit messy...

Other useless posts like "thanks for the awesome launcher" at least have the good tone. And you, if you're going to get silly because of a slight mistake I made, then excuse me, English isn't native to me.

Folder Background Color / App constantly removed from folder

Hello,

I really like Nova Launcher and went for Prime a couple of weeks ago...thx!!

Two topics I'd like to ask for:

- Would it be possible to add an option to modify the background color for folders...or at least have them surrounded by a (adjustable) border?

- I frequently experience that one app (Aptoide) is being removed from the folder I moved it to. Adding it again helps for some time (?), then it's again gone. It's independent from reboots or folder placement (position of folder on screen and/or position of app in folder)

Thx,

Stefan
[Nova Launcher] Sp1tfire:
Aptoide gets removed from folders everytime you change a theme or update Nova Launcher. Happens to me as well. People reported there are other apps that have the same behavior as well.
[Nova Launcher] Twincharger:
I'm a long time prime user, first time now I have an issue... OK after applying the Android 4.2.2 firmware upgrade on my Sony Xperia Tablet Z (WiFi only), I lost the "overscrolling" effect in the app drawer. It still works fine on the home screens though! So in the app drawer, when I try to swipe right on the first page, it simply flashes the icons off and on instead of giving that nice effect... hope I'm making myself clear. I'm using the latest version from Play Store, did a full factory reset after the update too... any ideas? Thanks!
[Nova Launcher] blackhand1001:
Agreed. Nova desperately need to merge the 4.3 commits. Nova is much choppier on 4.3.

Apex and trebuchet both have them merged. I am sticking with trebuchet for now since apex screws with the app drawer spacing on tablets and there's no way to get it like stock. Trebuchet handles that fine. I'd like to switch back to nova prime though.

[Nova Launcher] blackhand1001:
There's still something missing performance wise. The opening animation on the 2012 nexus when clicking on app in the app drawer is still choppy especially when the scroll indicator is fading. This doesn't occur in trebuchet. The widget scrolling is also not as responsive as trebuchet. Does version 2.2.2 actually have the 4.3 bits merged in or will they be in the next release.

It seems the same as before performance wise.

[Nova Launcher] Starymari:
Did you move the icons (launcher apk or zip) to your sd card? Sometimes, you have to restart the launcher after the boot because the media scanner is running and didn't get a chance to finish loading your icons. Common problem if your icon pack is saved to the sd card. Good luck!
[Nova Launcher] cmd512:
Exactly what I just realized, loading perfectly now after moving it back to phone storage.

[Nova Launcher] Michael B.N.:
I have the option right under Show Notification Bar, but it says that root access is required. Do you have root access or can that be the reason why you can't see the option?

Yea, I totally have root access. I turned it on to only show the clock on the default home screen and its working but now I don't have the option visible anymore to turn it off or change it.

That's weird really! And I believe the option is visible even if you don't have root access.. It will prompt for access once you choose it.

But if that's not the case, then once check the root permissions for Nova under your permissions manager (or SuperSU)

Also try clearing the cache for the app and restart it.

And if you have a ROM with DPI support, try changing the DPI to 720
[Nova Launcher] t3chn0s1s:
Clearing the cache is a good idea. That's a simple one I always forget. I'm running a Google Play Edition ROM that does NOT have DPI support but I used to run SlimBean.... Now I'm curious - why 720? That's some tiny ass icons!

Edit: cleared cache for Nova and restarted it... Nothing. Booted into recovery and wiped cache/dalvik - still no change. This is so bizarre.

Sent from my HTC One™
[Nova Launcher] neerajvd:
I keep the icon size as 105% and that's large enough. ;)

720 layout results in 2 panel Nova settings. I was just wondering if it's the app layout that might be hiding the setting. Could be possible.. :cool:

Wallpaper issue

It seems I'm not the only one complaining about wallpaper being zoomed in/distorted.

The only solution for now is to switch to default home screan (EasyHome) then back to Nova, you will need to do this again if you restart your phone.

Hopefully this annoying bug gets fixed soon.
[Nova Launcher] LordDeath:
I have no idea if this is technically possible but what about adding a customizable widget transparency to Nova Launcher?

Some widgets (like Spotify's) have no transparency at all and on homescreens full with widgets we can't enjoy our wallpapers anymore. :)

So what about a customizable widget transparency that can be forced individually on all active widgets? Would this make any sense? Or is there no way to do this in Android?
[Nova Launcher] sdeft:
Hi Kevin

One small bug I noticed

If you remove a system app from /system/app folder still shows the app icon. Only way so far to solve this is to restart nova.

Also could you please add numeric value in the transparency options bar of desktop & drawer. Like you did for Corner Radius option under Unread Counts.
