[APP] Create shortcuts to Sense/ADW/LauncherPro and other Home on your desktop

Hello, just made an app that allow users to toggle your favourite Home.
I just create a shortcut to the Home you want., just have a look at this Video, maybe that will be easier to understand:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMpONctP2F8
I found that Home switcher need such a feature, I contacted the dev, but doesn't want to work on something like that, so I did it myself!
Remarks:
* Cyrket description here
* Use the longpress on homescreen and create a shurtcut? If you launch the main app, the shortcuts will be created on ALL your Home! so you will need to delete some ;-)
Just tell me if you find that usefull or not!

Changelog:
1.1: Now use the longpress on homescreen to add a shortcut. Will not be repeated on every Launcher like the main app.
1.01: major bug corrected with HTC Sense
1.0: First release

First post edited, the app is now in the Android Market. All seem to work fine.

Does it make the different homes default or is it just to switch between them?

Just a switcher. nothing special and revolutionnary.
Just wanted to share the app that I made for a friend. some people really like it and use it.
I don't have a really need for this app myself, but the few friends friends that try it really loved it.

May i ask where that background image is from? its stunning

Whats the background you have in that video??

Last version in the ANdroid Market allow you to use the longpress on Homescreen to add shortcut only to your favorite home.
Can now be used with launcherPro dock.

Just made an update.
I am very excited for some features, because I am making something like the Sense Desktop.
This allow you to create different Homescreens with different wallpapers and icons.
Please send me feedback!
What's New?
You can now rename the Shortcut. ( and also changing icon in future donate version)
You can now change wallpapers for each Home
I hope this feature will allow people to create Theme like Sense ( one for work, for games, etc...
Possibility to make it the default home when you use a shortcut.
Unfortunately this will break the behavior of the Home button in home ( Expose on LauncherPro or getting back to default homescreen)
Hope you will love it.

Ouch... just fixed a bug that was very annoying!
If you choose EasyHome as default without setting a Home, the app crashed.
Now fixed!

Can somebody help me please, people in comment report crashes, but I've got no problem on all my phones.

suppose you could use this for your home screen if you want to.

Sweet, question, is it possible to replace the crosshair in the 'where am i'-thingy with a picture or shape, so that I could use a pin like in G-maps f.e.?

I don't know exactly how to to do it, but you might be able to get it to work by removing the 2 progress bars that form the crosshairs, then adding in a bitmap of your choice, and meddling with the x/y offsets in advanced parameters to have its position based on #LLAT# and #LLONG#. Hope this helps.
Thomas

Thnx for the great work! Love the widgets you made!

What launcher do you use?

I alternate between nova and action launcher. I think the sweet spot for grid size on the nexus 10 is 7x9.

Hi all
This is my first "real" application. I done only CyanogenMod themes until now. For learning something about Android programming, I developed a small app, Commands Launcher.
It is very simple: you can define commands (only shortcuts actually) that you can use in a widget (homescreen and lockscreen).
I hope to add more features in the future, but as I'm an university student at the last year, I won't have much free time.
WIDGETS:
-Homescreen widget with a list of the commands defined (better than folders, it has an unlimited capacity and helps in saving space)
-Lockscreen widget [only from Android 4.2] that allows you to run commands directly from the lockscreen, without unlocking the device (note that this obviously won't work if you have a pin /password security for the lockscreen)
-1x1 minimum size
APP FEATURES:
-homescreen and lockscreen widgets
-three different text sizes for widgets (small, medium, big)
-side scrolling menù for helping app's navigation
-view of commands defined in a list
-backup and restore your commands in and from sd card
-three themes: light, dark, black (black is useful for amoled users, it will displays better and will save battery)
-four different transitions types between app's page
CHANGELOG
-1.5: now items of the list in the widget are centred
minimum widget size decreased from 2x2 to 1x1 (you may need to replace widgets)
-1.3: possibility to change widgets text size (small, medium, big)
small fixes
-1.2: other little fixes after first release
-1.1: little fixes after first releare
-1.0: initial release
DOWNLOAD:
Google Play
(if you like the app, rate it )
Enjoy

I love the concept of this widget. I've been looking for something like this. As a next step, I'd love to be able to create multiple different widgets that I can place on different homescreens. Also, font and size customization and the ability to link apps and not just shortcuts.
Great start!

Thanks!

I really like this theme, it's very well done, thanks for sharing! :good:
I can't seem to get the Media Utilities portion to work though. The album art, the music background, and the Play/Pause buttons are all always visible.

Yep, that would be it! I tried checking the MU thread before this to see if there was anything regarding Android L compatibility, but I couldn't find anything. Searches using one letter are rough.
