small issue

Hello! There is a small issue. Can a folder from the Applications menu add to the desktop? And if so, how?
[Nova Launcher] elias0441:
I can use widgets in drawer on my nexus 7 even though i don't have root.

How is that possible?
[Nova Launcher] dmonzel:
I've never had any major issues running the beta, and I works perfectly with ICS. I'd suggest backing up your settings before trying. If you don't like it, you can just uninstall and reinstall the stable from the play store.
[Nova Launcher] cobraromania:
Hi kevin@TeslaCoil. I wanted to say from begin, your work is flawless, fast and stable and in the future i will go for Nova Launcher Prime for supporting your development and to bring the best you could make. But for now, just one frustrating thing. I want to make my own icons on dock but i don't know what resolution to use. First i tried to make a button menu (i uploaded to see) but when i put it on dock it's so ugly and "resized" and wanted to know what resolution to use and save format for best quality. And besides this, i wanted instade of icons to use text buttons, like in this screenshot but i think it's not possible, i hope to help me.

p.s : sorry for my bad english
[Nova Launcher] sabret00the:
80px*80px should work out fine.
[Nova Launcher] robbiekhan:
On the latest beta and still getting random reloads when leaving apps back to homescreen. Rather annoying.
[Nova Launcher] cobraromania:
i saved to png, it's looks good

and about text buttons ?

later edit : I tried both and buttons and are too small. Is there a way to occupy two "slots" of dock for one button ? to make it a little big
[Nova Launcher] dmonzel:
For text icons, I use Simple Text. You can do just about anything and can select the file instead of cropping the image.
[Nova Launcher] scuba156:
because your on JB, it doesn't require it as a system app or root to add Widgets
[Nova Launcher] cobraromania:
the application is ok but how to make text bigger because when i go to launcher, it's resizing
[Nova Launcher] qoncept:
Any way to get rid of the vibrate when I push the app draw icon on the dock?
[Nova Launcher] jjhiza:
Settings -> Sound -> Vibrate on Touch? Really depends on what phone you have.

Galaxy Nexus - Slim Bean a4
[Nova Launcher] jjhiza:
Try 97x97, and no, there's no way to have an icon occupy two dock slots. The only way to make it work, would be with Desktop Visualizer, but then, you're creating a widget...

Galaxy Nexus - Slim Bean a4
[Nova Launcher] phoenixs4r:
Typically when Kevin is this quiet it means there's some cool stuff coming.

Can't wait!
[Nova Launcher] qoncept:
That works, but it turns off vibrating when I push nav buttons too, and I want to keep that.
[Nova Launcher] mahercs:
All or none, I'm afraid. No middle ground
[Nova Launcher] peterbonge:
96x96 would be even better. It's the original resolution of icons on xhdpi devices like the Galaxy Nexus.
[Nova Launcher] jjhiza:
Yeah, unfortunately, there's no way to unlink the vibration at this point. :(

Galaxy Nexus - Slim Bean a4
[Nova Launcher] Yellowsun:
Can anyone tell me how to get rid of the blue frames around the home screens when I scroll? I have searched and searched for a solution. All anyone can tell me is "change the transition effect." I have tried all of them, but they all show the frames.

I purchased the prime version from the play store, and my device is a Nexus 7. I did both of the small jelly bean updates sent by Google.

Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
[Nova Launcher] jjhiza:
Hmm...I assume you're Nexus 7 is stock? It might just be a default (stock) animation. I have an A500 and an original Galaxy Tab, and neither one show a blue border in between screens...only the overscroll effect on the last screen. It might not be something you can switch off .:confused:

Galaxy Nexus - Slim Bean a4
[Nova Launcher] Yellowsun:
Yes. It's stock. I have seen videos and pictures from others with the N7 and no one else seems to have this. I'm not sure what is going on. Thank you for your reply.
[Nova Launcher] cobraromania:
guys, every resolution i chose, when i selected from launcher, it's the same size :((
[Nova Launcher] tyraelasd:
I like this launcher very much. I just have one issue, I notice that the opening drawer animation its not as smooth as the one found in the stock launcher, whereas the closing drawer animation its really smooth. I've got it in stock Speed settings. Any ideas?
[Nova Launcher] nikulogical:
I'm witnissing this too. I think it may be since its built from jb but from ICS.
[Nova Launcher] jjhiza:
What program are you using to create the icons? Unfortunately, I'm not home, otherwise I would try with Gimp, and test it myself.

Galaxy Nexus - Slim Bean a4
[Nova Launcher] Enhanced:
Same issue. It's a shame considering how smooth everything else is.
[Nova Launcher] ketani73:
I am a Nova Prime user (GS3 Android v4.0.4) & just sharing my terrible experience after updating to v1.2.2beta4 .... The app drawer showed no icons at all !!!

Quickly moved back to the stable v1.2.1 version & now things are back to normal !!

I request a few things in the next update (v1.2.2 final) , please add option of changing icon-size & please add an option of more dock-backgrounds !! Just the way we can use Go Theme Icons , we should be able to use Go Theme Docks !! Just think over this humble request of mine & i can assure you that this will be the best ICS launcher ever !!
[Nova Launcher] wilcomir:
of course it is, icons are resized automatically! the dimesions you've been given are right because depending on the kind of device the resizing is different, but this 96x96 is the biggest needed, and smaller devices have nice divisors ie you always get integer dimensions while scaling the icons.

ok, that's not that clear but I hope you understand...

[Nova Launcher] cobraromania:
photoshop. what is gimp ?

i understeand but ... what to do ? :D
[Nova Launcher] scottjb:
http://www.gimp.org/
[Nova Launcher] wilcomir:
gimp is something quite like photoshop, but you don't have to pay for it AND you can safely tell a cop you have it.

About what to do: you can't do anything, unless kevin decides to implement resizeable icons.

V
[Nova Launcher] cobraromania:
Thank you all. So, i will wait for a miracle from Kevin :D
[Nova Launcher] wilcomir:
well, if you feel like this option would be useful, throw it on uservoice and see if people vote for it.

V
[Nova Launcher] spupuz:
any update to match JB news?
[Nova Launcher] cobraromania:
uservoice ? where and i will propose :D

later edit : shame on me, i found it !
[Nova Launcher] IncCo.:
What you can do is to create a transparent square which is 96x96 png. And then decide how big you want the icon to be by resizing it within that square.

I have done it and it works fine, just takes a lot of time to get it perfect.
[Nova Launcher] cobraromania:
thank you for support but doesn't work, when i selected from nova, it's still small. I will wait for (i hope) option resize icons in a future update
[Nova Launcher] cobraromania:
guys, make me to understand, how to update on

this

. Everywhere i look, i see update nova but when i try to install it says that is already installed

My nexus 7 also looks same. Any suggestions?
[Nova Launcher] lim_ryan:
how you get dock icon so big? mine very tiny only
[Nova Launcher] 94SupraTT:
Has an anyone figured this out? Here is a pic of it.
[Nova Launcher] wilcomir:
that was an old bug, are you on the latest version for sure?

V
[Nova Launcher] IncCo.:
Happens for me as well, its been around for ever now.

I have found that not using infinite scroll helps.
[Nova Launcher] nexus7fun:
I am using 1.2.2beta4.

Unfortunately turning off infinite scroll was not helpful in my case.
[Nova Launcher] Luraisin:
Does multi live wallpaper work with Nova launcher ?

I am trying to set different wallpapers on each screen but it doesnt want to .
[Nova Launcher] shaneydroid:
Same here. Also on Nexus 7 and using the free version of Nova to try and cannot find any way to get rid of the frame.

Far too annoying to use it with the frame which is unfortunate as I would likely go ahead and get the full version otherwise.
[Nova Launcher] mahercs:
I don't see this blue frame at all on my RAZR MAXX. Could it be your device? Odd that it shows up for some but not others. I'm using infinite scroll with In and Out transition on 1.2.2beta4
[Nova Launcher] wilcomir:
working fine here.

V
[Nova Launcher] Luraisin:
How would you do it

I add some few screen with a different wallpaper fof each one

And i have the same wallpaper for all the sreen

If u dont mind, can you explain me which setting that i have to use ? ( send me a pm if it is possible )
[Nova Launcher] livejamie:
Is there a way to eliminate the clipping I'm getting on the top 4x1 widget here?

You can see it cuts off the top part and the bottom of the Weather, this is with a 6x4 setup.

If I go to 5x4 it cuts into the dock:

Here's what I was using before, Launcher Pro which handles it just fine:

Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated as I've paid for Nova Launcher and I'd like to use it.
[Nova Launcher] nexus7fun:
When I use "Card Stack", frame does not appear. Other two are NG.

BTW, I tried apex and same flame appear when Transition effect "Tablet" is used. I don't have nova prime or apex pro. Could you check other effects?
[Nova Launcher] Yellowsun:
I tried Apex as well and had the same problem.

I have Nova Prime (downloaded from the market). I ended up using card stack with infinite scrolling set to ON. I also turned off wallpaper scrolling. This combination works for me with no blue frames. It would be nice to eventually use more of the options, but I am okay with this for now.

I would be interested to know if the developer thinks this is something that can be fixed in the future (not asking for a timeline, just if it looks possible). Also, if anyone with knowledge can check the default developer settings on the Nexus 7, maybe there is something there that can be checked/unchecked which would help.
[Nova Launcher] primetime34:
With prime, is one of the gestures the recently opened tasks?
[Nova Launcher] oddspec:
Yes sir
[Nova Launcher] Dorilife:
I don't have this issue with 1.2.2beta 4, are you using persistent search bar? That's what I'm using.. from the screen shot nexus7fun posted it looks like it the non persistent..maybe this could be the issue..I'll test really quick.

Edit- I just checked and I couldn't get it to show like your screen, what desktop grid are you guys using?
[Nova Launcher] wilcomir:
I don't really remember, I'm quite sure live wallpapers screen number and nova's screen number must match, then choose the photos, the transitions and it should work out of the box. Maybe in nova settings you've checked desktop->wallpaper scroll->only statics? If this is the case, just check on, or always, or whatever it is in your language.

V
[Nova Launcher] hydroxyde:
This is the main issue preventing me from upgrading to Prime. Bottom row of pixels on some of my widgets is clipped, same widgets are handled fine in Apex Launcher with the same layout.

If this can be fixed, I'll be upgrading to Prime.
[Nova Launcher] pkelly517:
That looks like Beautiful Widgets v4.10.5.

If you have a copy of 4.5, try it.

The latest version coupled with Nova in ICS does that.

Levelup should be releasing a new version for jb, since the toggle widgets are broken.
[Nova Launcher] shaneydroid:
I'm using the default grid size, which matches stock Jelly Bean with persistent search.
[Nova Launcher] Dorilife:
Weird I couldn't replicate the problem..:o

Tried a whole bunch of different setups on the N7
[Nova Launcher] 94SupraTT:
Changing the animation on the home screen to card stack eliminated the blue frame. All combinations i tried on the home screen were without the blue frame as long as i had card stack selected.
[Nova Launcher] cobraromania:
guys, is there a option to put the dolphin icon a little down ? i tried but the grill is big and if i modified the options of grill, the widgets will show wierd. Thank you

[Nova Launcher] Salty Wagyu:
Hi, just bought your prime version yesterday for my new Nexus 7! Got some suggestions that will no doubt have been mentioned before though:

1. Would love to see transparency options for folder drawers placed in the dock or main screen, currently they pop out in a full black box.

2. Ability to re-arrange the apps in folder drawers in the app drawer. For example, I have a Games folder and as you would guess - 3 Angry Bird icons on the Platform folder icon, due to having Angry Birds, Season, Space, Rio. Would like to mix it up a bit. :)

3. And perhaps 2 separate options for disabling the dock divider. For example, I would like the main dock divider to stay there, but the one in landscape mode (which tucks away the google search thingy) to be disabled.

Cheers :)
[Nova Launcher] HadenVR:
Highly doubt he would since its based off of ics

Try Holo launcher, works on android 2.2+ I believe

[Nova Launcher] dmonzel:
Instead of folders, make groups. They show up as tabs. Example: I have these tabs when I open the drawer. Apps, Root Tools, Games, Widgets. Better than folders, IMO.
[Nova Launcher] Luraisin:
It work with those settings, i dont know why.

I have to add 1 screen more compare to nova screen, otherwhise i have each half of the two wallpapers.

And i have only to actived the wallpaper scroll without checking statics.

I dont know if it is weird or not, but anyway thank you
[Nova Launcher] frenccw:
One of the highest feature requests on uservoice is to be able to use those group tabs as folders. Can't wait for it to be implemented :)
[Nova Launcher] jjhiza:
I'm sure that once Kevin makes the necessary changes for JB, we'll see some more of the feature requests being addressed. So far, Kevin has done an excellent job of balancing features, while retaining speed and stability. :)

[Nova Launcher] Smac7:
does this launcher use GPU in jellybean? i turned on the developer option to flash the screen when gpu is in use and it flashed on and off for all my other apps that use gpu (inc. the stock JB launcher) but nova does not appear to use gpu. Of course it may have something to do with the preview cm10 build on my gsIII, but every other gpu app works as far as i can tell.
[Nova Launcher] ock:
Using the stock launcher doesn't flash the screen for me.

I'm having a problem with my widgets freezing.

I'm using the latest market release nova prime on vzw gnex ics (aokp m6).

Any ideas what's causing this and how I can prevent it?

Thanks all.
[Nova Launcher] Smac7:
weird. i tried again and it's no longer using it on either launcher.
[Nova Launcher] Milamber33:
Logcat?
[Nova Launcher] Broken Hope:
I've not found a way to reproduce it 100% of the time yet, but there appears to be a bug that will cause the app drawer to be black until you change your filtering options. I think it may be to do with having all your apps shown and being on a higher numbered screen than you have in a filtered section.

e.g in your all apps view you have 5-6 screens, you're on the 5th screen, you then switch to the my apps view which has only 2 screens, you'll then see a blank app drawer until you switch back to all apps then back to my apps.
[Nova Launcher] hydroxyde:
I had this happen a lot while sorting my apps into folders. When getting it to show your apps again, you can just click on "My Apps" (or whichever list you were looking at) without clicking something else first. Not a fix or anything, but at least you can get your app list back in fewer steps.
[Nova Launcher] Broken Hope:
Any ETA when the Jelly Bean branch will be released, or at least in beta? I love the features of Nova, but missing out on the additional stuff that Jelly Bean added.
[Nova Launcher] jjhiza:
From what I understand, JB has a lot of subtle changes in it that are giving devs fits (ICS Browser+ is a prime example), so simply merging the changes may be difficult. Kevin is merging the swipe to remove feature, the app/widget reflow ability, and more. I'll put it to you this way...I'm a private beta tester, and I haven't seen anything yet...chances are, changes this big will hit private beta before the public beta or Market release, so we may be a ways away from seeing the end product. Yet and still, Nova is running great on JB; I have zero complaints. I'm as excited as anyone, to see the 4.1 features merged, but we all have to be patient, and let Kevin work his magic! :D

Galaxy Nexus - Slim Bean 1.0
[Nova Launcher] mahercs:
Agreed on all counts. As another private beta tester, I can confirm nothing is currently different than what everyone else has access to. The ONE THING I hope and pray for is that Kevin keep this as uncluttered as possible. I had GO EX and it blew my mind how often they updated it. While updates are usually good, they broke more than they added and it just got out of hand. It was a huge app, it was a battery drain, and it was inconsistent in its performance, depending on the version you used. No thanks. Nova Prime, if it can stay clean, yet functional, will be the next LauncherPro Plus - i.e. the dominant go-to launcher for both ICS and JB users!:good:
[Nova Launcher] shaneydroid:
It doesn't happen with the card and cube transitions (those are the only options I have, on the free version at the moment, don't want to go full til I can sort the blue boxes out), I get the blue square with transitions set to none.

I want it to have the same scrolling style as stock Jelly Bean, no fancy animations.
[Nova Launcher] sandfreak:
Duh...I should have thought to post one. I'll post it when it happens again. Thank you.

It would appear that 1.2.2 final has hit the Play Store. Don't know if there's much difference between it and 1.2.2b4 but it's something.
[Nova Launcher] jjhiza:
It actually seems to be a pretty big update, to fix stability, speed, and usability. It's not the feature merge, but it should help out a lot of us who are running JB, while adding additional features for those on ICS. :)

I'm quite sure kevin didn't add anything between 122b4 and 122... Naming it b4 or rc1 is not the point. beta 4 was out for some weeks, no problems, it becomes a rc and then the final release.

cheers

[Nova Launcher] jjhiza:
Scroll down in Nova Settings and click the "check for updates" panel...you should get a readout of the changes Kevin has made. The bug fixes aren't listed, item by item though...I think Kevin simply fixes bugs he finds himself, or things people have sent him via logcats.
