Problem using Multi-picture LW with ADW EX Launcher - Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've been using Multi-picture LW with GO Launcher and it's working well. Now since GO Launcher doesn't have the option to add Launcher Action buttons/icons in the homescreen, and since I need those to achieve the customization I like, I've been forced to use ADW EX Launcher.
*That doesn't mean I hate using ADW, I just think GO Launcher is more of my cup of tea.
Well the thing is, Multi-picture LW doesn't work well with ADW. Whenever I go to a different homescreen, the pictures doesn't change. And when I tried to remove the pics, it gives me a blank screen saying I'm looking at Screen 2, although I'm on a different screen. I try moving to a different screen, it still says screen 2.
Any ideas?
UPDATE!
Here's a screenshot so you'll know what I'm talking about:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Notice that the Screen Indicator clearly says that its in the 3rd screen, but Multi-picture LW says its one the 2nd screen. Weird.

I've tried going to setting- manager apps- home and awn launcher and both of them the change default option is greyed out.i don't know what to do.i tried restarting, but nothing worked. Please help me.

AWN Launcher? Im kinda confused but it seems that you have tried:
Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>Home>Clear defaults?
If that doesn't work another way you can clear defaults is download another home laucher. Try and install another home like PandaHome or scan this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
After you install it it should ask you again what you want to set your default home as.

Haha, sorry I was thinking of a dock for linux. What I mean was adw... OK problem solved. Thank you so much.

[Off topic] Home screens

Seeing as every other device forum has one of these, i thought i'd start one here to see what the more creative amongst us have set up.
Mine is a very simple setup using nova launcher and clean clock widget.

Whats the details?
What did you guys use to replace the launcher? Just install and hit the home button and it offered to do so, like normal?

adw launcher, sgs3 theme, sgs4 wallpaper

Something came up on one of my home screen pages that I can't get rid of

That circle thing in the middle of the screen, it looks like a folder but it is not and i cant get rid of it, i tried Kong pressing but it does nothing besides the usual nova launcher menu thingy coming up

i would export settings, uninstall/reinstall nova, import settings again and see if its gone.
or maybe try cleaning the nova cache first.
good luck !
edit:
or try to drag something inside the folder (shortcut to a note for example), then longress on it and choose remove.
Happened to me. Restarted Nova from the Nova menu and it went way

New Launcher Idea

I've asked this question before but I'm looking for a Launcher alternative. Back in 1995 there was a PC operating system competing with Windows. I think it was called Xerox Tabs, but I cannot confirm that.
The home screen looked like a Franklin Daily Planner with Tabs on the side.
I'd like an Android launcher like that. I'd like to be able to customize the tabs, what opens each time you click the tab, and the over all appearance of the launcher.
I've seen something similar called Opus Dimini in iPad, but it's not a launcher. I've also used this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
But it's not exactly what I'm looking for. I think we would need more than just a theme, but really a launcher with pages that flip, and you can display anything from widgets to icons and folders.
Is anyone up to this? Or know of something that would work?
Thanks in advance.

I think that Total Launcher can do what you want. I've made and use a similar theme with tabs:

Total launcher is the only launcher which let you completely change the look and functionality of home screen.

New Pixel Launcher App Icons are now all inside a circle...

Is it just me who noticed this? For me this looks ugly

I don't really have an opinion either way. I see why it might upset some people, for naturally square icons like Gmail it looks funny but I think the round maps icon is cool and chrome has always been round!
This is not news to me either.
If it annoys me too much (and I do not think it will), I could always use a 3rd party launcher and an icon pack.

True,
Assistant is part of the nav bar so you won't even lose that.
pixel launcher is not appealing to me at all either
Honestly i think its slicker and cleaner the google launcher so +1 for me also who actually uses stock launchers anyway.
+1 Nova launcher here and im a beta user
