Excellent update Kevin. Added a lot of cool & useful stuff, silenced the whining & moaning detractors;) & just proved why Nova is still the best launcher for Android. A couple of bugs here & there that have already been reported but I'm sure those will be fixed in the next beta. Keep up the good work:thumbup:

There's a new feature to change icon size..? ;)

Look and feel...

[Nova Launcher] dragontology:
Love the new update. Swipe up action on desktop items is hot. It's like that new "Action Launcher" which has one tap for opening the "main" app and double tap to open the folder. That made me want to change launchers. Nova having it... well, something similar... less interested in dropping Nova now.

I'm not seeing icon resizing. I do have Prime, and just updated to 2.0 beta 2. I'm not sure I want it, just wanted to see what it would do. Does it mean icons can be resized like widgets can? This would make for some interesting desktop creations. There are some really high-res PNG icons out there. My YouTube icon is 1024x1024. It's a little too big, and doesn't scale down well. I need to replace it. (I like my theme's status bar, but not its icons.) But I mean, if I find a 512x512 PNG or even a 256x256, we could start seeing some WP7/8-inspired home screens with these giant icons that double as folders. Could get really interesting. Not my thing, I favor a more minimal look, but I do like seeing what people come up with.
[Nova Launcher] Kurre:
Icon resize feature gives you an option to select icon size between 70% and 130%. So no individual resizing as it affects all icons at once.

Your idea could be fun..but maybe Kevin is trying to keep this launcher fast and bloat free so dunno if he wants to implement that kind of feature (just guessing :rolleyes: ) as we already have tons of nice features :)

On 2.0beta2, the Wallpaper scrolling - Off option doesnt work. All the other wallpaper scrolling options work, but it won't turn off..

And everytime I open folder options, the folder background reverts to "None", even though no changes has been made.

Real nice update! Keep it up!

What you describe is what I always thought Icon resizing would be, a per app-basis settings allowing resizing of the Icon like a widget.

I've been on Dennisxl (Apex dev) 's ass for a long time to get it. Then I gave up on Apex and went on Nova.

I saw the Apex update recently with that feature in the changelog, and realized people were not asking for the same thing.

Too bad Kevin did the exact same implementation.

Maybe it would imply a complex transformation like : App = 1x1 widget.

Anyway, I stick to Desktop Visualizer to have custom static widgets as a workaround :(

Never realized I would miss the expand notifications bar function until it's suddenly gone.... :) must be jelly bean related.

edit : it's not jellybean related. Works fine on a Samsung-ed version of JB on S3, but not on stock Android 4.2.1 on GN and N7. So it must be stock Android again. :(
[Nova Launcher] jnr21:
Small bug in 2.0beta2. If i set some transparency to app drawer background then homescreen shadows disappear sometimes, for example if you go to some app through app drawer and then back to homescreen by pressing home button, then homescreen top and bottom shadows are gone.

There's no problem if app drawer background is completely black (no transparency).

[Nova Launcher] sabret00the:

It you're using apktool, it's probably because of the 4.2 optimizations. Apktool can't currently decompile 4.2 apks.

Something strange happend.

Suddenly my music folder had silver circle around it instead of black. Then I tried to move it to somewhere else on my screen. It just copied the folder, but didn't move that original folder. I tried to move it many times, until my screen was full of those folder. Then after few seconds nova crashed and all music folders were gone.

I'm using 2.0beta2.

[Nova Launcher] Cleargrey:
Lag free rotation?

Hey all,

I don't know if this is inside the scope of this launcher. But the delay in auto-rotation is very annoying for me and others. I've come to understand that it may well be by design. Is it possible to build in a setting to reduce the programmed delay of the auto-rotation all the way from stock down to 0 milliseconds? I'm guessing this would need a rooted device. But again, I don't know if this is within the scope of this launcher or the developer.

Any helpful comments always welcome!
[Nova Launcher] kenkiller:
Yeah, evidently it depends on which version of Android being used. Being on the cutting edge sometime sucks. :D

Excellent update Kevin! Thank you very much.:good: You have obviously been putting in many hours of work for such a big update. Personally, for me it's running perfect apart from the option to NOT scroll the wallpaper is not working - it still scrolls even when set to not scroll (as reported by others also) but I'm sure that will be fixed in next beta release.

Thanks again Kevin and

sorry

for my previous whining and moaning about a lack of activity and new features with this launcher.

It's bloody perfect now (well almost - apart from wallpaper scrolling issue).

Well done Kevin. Prime version purchased to support you. :highfive:

The Expand Notifications option isn't OS related at all... it's just broken at the moment. The 2.0 beta 1 release was exactly the same as beta 2, so I just rolled back... I'm running it on the exact same ROM and kernel, and it's just fine. Give Kevin a bit of time to sort it out... I'm sure he'll have it fixed for you guys soon. Something probably just got mixed up in the code somewhere.

[Nova Launcher] planetf1:
I've hit a problem with the *leaked* SGS-2 KP8 rom -- it could well be the rom at fault.

If I'm using an app, and the screen blanks, under android 2.3.6 (and touchwiz) I could hit HOME to reactivate the screen

Under ICS 4.0.3 with nova (and home bound to go to default launcher page), if I hit home I go to the launcher & not the previous active app

The "lock" button works as before and reactivates the screen.

Not checked what the default stock/4.0.3/nexus-s launcher does.

Beta6 Jan 3 2012

Added Voice Search and Nova Settings actions.

Added Settings button to Add to homescreen title.

Added system settings in menu for devices with a menu button.

Fixed items not sticking on pages 5 & 6

Fixed icons not scaling up when selected as files

Fixed drop down menus not dismissing

Fixed various force closes

Various minor optimizations.

I have also updated the second post for planned features.

There's a fair amount of back-end changes in beta6 and it likely introduced some new FCs. I use BugSense for fc-reporting [edit] and everything is working as expected as shown by the reports from beta6 and the quick beta7. So never mind, I can still easily see crash reports.[/edit]

2.0beta3 Dec 16, 2012

Fix expand notifications on 4.2

Fix dock as overlay

Fix dock infinite scroll

Fix disabled wallpaper scrolling

Big Grid lab now works for dock size

Fix folder bg not saving

Fix FCs

Settings > Check for updates > Menu > Beta or Download the Beta APK

Older Versions:

Previous Beta APK: 2.0beta2 Dec 15, 2012

Latest Stable APK: 1.3.4 Dec 9, 2012

A few notes:

The behavior I saw with folder bg was a bit different than what was described. If it's still an issue let me know.

With large grid sizes, or in landscape, there might not be enough room for the icons at the size you specified. The desktop automatically scales them down to avoid cutting off the labels or icons. You can get the 1.3 behavior in Settings > Long-press volume down for labs > Disable desktop autoscaling

The dock icon count on tablets is intentionally limited to what it is, enough space in landscape does not mean there is enough space in portrait. If you disagree the Big Grid option in Settings > Long-press volume down for Labs > Big Grid now bumps up the limit for dock icons as well.

Nova Launcher does not support Live Folders, which was an awkward feature of Android 2.x that never really took off and as of Honeycomb was basically discontinued in favor of scrollable widgets. Not "all" launchers do. Neither does "stock". Many Android 2.x launchers do as does TouchWiz. I think there are a few Live Folder Shortcut apps on the market that should work with "all" launchers including Nova.

Thanks for the update - always getting better. Quick comment...

Been using Nova and custom navbar launcher button in my ROM for a while and always accepted the fact the the screen flickers when launching the drawer from the home screen. Apex has since added the same functionality (actions as navbar shortcuts) but the home screen doesn't flicker when using the drawer action in the navbar. Would love to see this minor annoyance fixed.

Been able to choose the size for the Dock Icons rather than simply one smaller size would be great too.

Again, excellent work. Easily my favorite launcher.
