ADW launcher question

Hi i am new to android and just started using ADW launcher.
i apologize in advance if this is a dumb question but i have tried searching to no avail.
I just installed ADW launcher on my htc evo and is working great. However i have a question. Is there anyway to put the app drawer into the dock? It seems redundant to have the dock and then the separate thing for the lab/rab and app drawer. I am just trying to minimize the number of screen taps/flicks and would love to be able to launch the app drawer from the dock rather than having the swipe up/down to go from the dock to the app drawer etc
thanks again

Two Options...
1. Don't use the dock bar (close it in settings)
2. Don't open the dock bar before trying to open the app drawer
You could also bind it to a button or a gesture in adw setting > system settings.

remove icon labels/names?

Is there an App or widget that would allow me to remove icon labels/names?
Haven't rooted yet so just running a stock Rom.
you can use desktop visualizer and keep shortcuts of your desired apps on the homescreen and you can remove the labels/names .....
In 3rd party launchers like ADW and Launcher Pro the option to hide app labels is there.
But if you really want to keep stock launcher I guess you could use Desktop. Visualizer to add a shortcut to the app and clear the label then use the icon from that app but it comes out a bit stretched out, unless you have custom icons in a higher resolution.

Bettercut will do that for you too.
GO Launcher EX has this option as well.

Go Launcher works perfectly.

[Q] HTC Sense Widget Replacements

Good evening/morning! (depending on your location )
May I ask a quick question?
I want to switch back to GO Launcher, but I really can't live without HTC's:
-Calendar widget
-Music widget (with lockscreen widget)
-Profile toggle and wifi toggle widgets.
Can somebody direct me to cheap or free alternatives on the Android market that can replace these HTC widgets, so that I can switch to GO Launcher?
I'd be very grateful for any help. Thanks so much

UCCW and GO Launcher Shortcuts

Good day,
I am trying to create some new designs for UCCW but I've found the UCCW doesn't show the GO Launcher shortcuts as an option for a hotspot. This means I can't create a hotspot that opens the app drawer.
I read a possible solution was to use transparent Desktop VisualizeR widgets. However, that only works if the Launcher allows you to overlap widgets. I have been unable to find this option in the GO Launcher.
Other than switching launchers, is there another solution? Would the Popup Widget be suitable?
Many thanks.

Can I get the default pixel date/weather widget in Nova launcher?

I really like the Date and weather widget that comes stock in the Google Launcher on the phone. However, I've switched to using Nova Launcher because I like a couple of its features better. Is there any way I can get that widget on my homescreen?
Thanks!

Yes, it is built into the Nova settings. No need to download additional widgets. Just look for the Google search bar options and select the pixel style and enable weather display.
i would love to find the built in digital clock/date widget, i cannot find it in nova launcher, could you tell me how? i don't need the weather as a widget, just the time
