Hi,
I would like my 4 most commonly used shortcuts as large icons on my main home screen.
3 are app shortcuts and one to direct message.
I use launcher pro plus, this lets me resize widgets but I want to resize just these 4 icons.
Maybe there is some widget that is customisable for a single shortcut and I could put it on my screen four times? Or one widget that I can add to have the 4?
I have a small screen 230x320 and the icons are very small, I have found nice icons to use for each shortcut but it's a waste because they are tiny, cramped and don't look good
I see a program called Bigger Icons Widget, but it doesn't show up in the market on my phone, must be incompatible I guess, I have a galaxy 5
any suggestions will be much appreciated =)
Thanks
Use Desktop VisualizeR from the market:

perfect, thank you very much ! =)
I've come from a HD2 with CHT 2 on it over to the Sensation and Sense 3 and I need a little help the spacing of items like widgets and apps.
Is there any way of changing the spacing between the app shortcuts on the screen - I'm sure there must be a way of having 5 or 6 columns and at least 7 or 8 rows. Anyone know how to make this so?
The same with widgets - the gap is huge between two widgets - it's screen estate that could be put to good use.
Download an alternate launcher like ADW or Launcher Pro. The Rosie launcher in Sense doesn't support resizeable widgets or columns or rows.

The default one on Sense is 4x4, but it could be increased with the likes of ADW or Launcher Pro.
I was playing with different values, but widgets are always overlapping.
If we take 960×540 display and subtract notification and dock areas, what's left? Don't think it is going to be 540x540. So, if I want to get rectangular greed, I'd need more rows, then columns.
What would be the optimal grid settings for qHD resolution?
I use adw.launcher with 6*8 grid. It's perfect for me.
So, using 6x8 on qHD screen, what would be the size of 1x1 cell?
I was trying to measure it with Desktop Visualizer tool, but the resulting widgets still overlap. ((

Sure icon texts / labels are overlapping, but I don't keep them enabled.

5x5 looks best with icon text

5 x 4 is enough imo

I use Elixir, and with the widgits, it is possible to get up to 7x7 icons on a screen.
I'm using Launcher Pro Plus and I think it looks great 6x4. It has an option to re-size widgets so that they don't overlap.

I use Elixir also. Started using it for the monitor and toggle widgets but fell in love with the app launcher widgets. I actually have zero icons on my home screens (all widgets) since Elixir is a widget. 49 icons on one home screen!
I really wish Sense could do at least 5x5...
I use ADW EX. 5x7 Is the best for me. 6x8 is too cluttered and it makes the icon labels overlap. Btw if the widgets look out of proportion just long press on them, press edit and adjust them to your liking.
Hello,
I want to know, is there any resizable widgets for Galaxy note, i want to use my 5x grid as much as i can
Samsung widgets are cool, but is there more?
you can not change the grid of touchwiz. So you have to change your launcher-app to be able to resize widgets.
Hello,
Is there any mod to get more precision in widget resizing with ICS ?
With sense & google widgets we can't get exactly what we want...
Use a different launcher and set the grid size to 10x10
