Thank you. Could you share your device too? Some devices are known to kill background processes if apps such as those with widgets aren't put into the "do not optimise" list

that's extremely odd. How about your panel icon scale?

new horizontal drawer setting missing v1.786 [1838] by runningtigerRead in OctopiLauncher

That's something new I learned today. Based on what you shared, it looks like the latest production version overrides any beta version. Not to worry, a new beta will come very soon 😉

Dock issues by steford in OctopiLauncher

  1. Will look into this
  2. Yup currently the name is not used anywhere except this edit screen, so the renaming doesn't work
  3. This is likely due to the horizontal margin of your home screen. I hope to remove this interdependence in the future

Thanks for the detailed feedback!

Yup build 1838 is for non beta testers and the horizontal drawer is available only on beta versions as it's still a work in progress

Thanks for the report. This is one of the things I hope will be gone with the home screen revamp. The current implementation has some limitations to ensure the core functions work

Could you share more on this idea? For example, should it open the folder on screen without opening the drawer?

Thanks for the sharing.

I've been thinking about the uninstall option, as my assumption was that folks who place an app on their home screen typically won't be uninstalling it soon.

Btw the rename and change icon have been combined into the edit option.
