Icon label removal was there two updates ago. The update today bring the wide Froyo style launcher background and Nexus One dot screen indicators.


Edit: I just tried out the wide Froyo background and it looks damn nice.

What exactly is the Nexus One Dot Screen Indicators, and how do they work?

Thanks

I love it! This update does what I was hoping for in the last one! :icon_ banana:
I actually shrunk my dock bar to standard froyo with just 2 apps (i had 4 and wanted the wide froyo), and added the dot-screen indicators...I just like those for some weird reason (because of this i went and installed the free version of "more icons" - so i can squeeze the two icons i ditched back on to the homescreen (plus one).

I think LauncherPro is probably my favorite app on my phone right now! lol

Think of them as an abacus(sp?). Say you have 5 home screens. If you turn on the left and right indicators (left on the left side, right on the right side), you should see two of them on either side when you're at your middle screen (or screen 3). Slide to "screen 4" , then one of the indicators on the right, moves to the left, leaving one on the right. Basically like saying "Hey - you have 3 screen-slides to the left you can make, or one more to the right." If you not very well oriented with your layout, forget, or have a lot of homescreens, it'll help you figure out where you're at (a slight time saver in some cases).

Long press on the end dock shortcuts - there will be an option to make them a homescreen indicator (the icon is a bunch of dots).

For some reason LP is not working in the market. I can download it but can't open the app.

 

[Phreaker47]

I was able to update from the Market just moments ago. I didn't have an alert yet but I went to market\downloads and it showed the update available (0.4.3)

I have had some battery drain off and on the last few days. I think its a combination of leaving gps on and beautiful widgets updating all the time. Beautiful widgets used up 43% of my battery in 6 hours.
