Plain Launcher Patch...Looking for Advice

[discolightning]

I uploaded a new version without icons, which is much easier to rearrange.

Please could you make this patch compatible with Advanced Configuration for Launcher?

I'm trying to install this patch through Preware but get the following error msg - any thoughts on why this is? I've rebooted the phone but still get the error msg. Thanks for any help!

Make sure you uninstall any other patches that affect the launcher before installing. This patch doesn't play well with some of the other patches.

I forgot to remove the 4x3 patch...after that this thing installed like a charm! thanks!

Hey Owen, I saw this patch and I have to say its gorgeous, much like the MetroUI it is based upon/inspired by.

I was wondering, do you think you'd ever consider tacking the idea of having this launcher be customizable? For instance, an option that allows you to choose to have this launcher go into list view only in Landscape or Portrait mode, or a menu item to choose between Lite List and Grid on the fly?

I think that'd be quite something. I'd probably use List View in Landscape and Grid in Portrait to be honest, as it'd allow me the most screen real-estate for both methods that way.

Looking forward to trying it out regardless!
