'Shrink' questions

[BLiNK]

*do the icon labels shrink as well?

*approximately how many icons can you have on one page before it starts looking awkward?


TIA!

I use bigify and not shrink... BUT I do know bigify adjusts icon labels appropriately!

I have Shrink and yes icon labels shrink as well. The other part is subjective because I don't have a lot of icons on my screens. I have most of them in my Infinidock.

I have both and the main difference between the two is that shrink allows control over each aspect spring board, dock, and switcher while bigify allows icon effects such as an ice or stone look. I have played around and at 60-66 percent shrink 5 icons a row looks good. Having 5 rows is a little tighter fitting and looks more clustered.

Have you tried resizing them with Springtomize? I'd have thought a tweaker like you would be all over that app!

Here is what the icons look like at 66%.

What's that dock tweak called? It looks very nice.

It's one of the Cover Flow effects in the dock options of Springtomize. Personally, I prefer the Cascade/Infinidock combination:

Massie, do you use Springtomize 2? if so, which features do you utilize?

 

[Massie]

I just grabbed it, so haven't done much yet...I originally got it to use the dock features but ended up liking that other one more. So right now I've got the tv lock animation, semi-transparent greyscale icons, and a landscape app switcher (which is great).

Probably dig more into it this week; I'd like to see how many standalone tweaks it can replace.

Springtomize replaces EVERYTHING!! but I was already familiar with many tweaks and springtomize was buggy so I don't use it anymore... But it's been updated alot... Maybe I should give it another go... My settings menu is like 30 feet long...

It seems stable on my device. I waited a long time to purchase this?as much as I like Fillipo's tweaks they have been known to be buggy at release. But he's always been good about updates and I haven't had issues with S2 yet.
