Home screen app drawer/dock/menu/carousel ???

I'm wondering if someone knows of a particular type of application and if they can point me in the right direction? I'll make a request in the appropriate app thread if this hasn't been developer yet.
I'm looking for a sliding app drawer/folder/carousel/dock (whatever you want to call it) that goes on the main home screen.
I guess it's best to illustrate what I'm wanting. Here's my current home screen:
{
"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"
}
I know my clock is big, but I figure whether it's a clock or a home screen filled with widgets, that give us very little room for shortcut icons.
Where my 4 icons are below the clock, I was wondering if there as an app (or widget) where you can put more shortcuts, then, kinda like the home screens slide left and right, you could run your finger over that drawer or dock and just the icons would slide left or right giving you more choices. I put the arrows there to kinda illustrate what I'm after.
I know about "Launcher Dock", but that popups a transparent dock of it's own, and although it's nice, it's not exactly what I'm after.
I've searched the market, but searching that thing turns up absolutely useless results. I've search for menu, slider, dock, drawer, folder, and lots of other terms to no avail.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Problem using Multi-picture LW with ADW EX Launcher

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.

Google Now Launcher Crash

The Google Now Launcher, which arrived with the latest update to Google Search, generates a weird error with Cal app from Any.do. I had a Cal widget on my homescreen previously with GEL which worked perfectly without a hitch.
{
"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 upgrading to latest version of Google Search, if I tap anywhere in the Cal widget, the launcher hangs and crashes in a moment and restarts itself. Unfortunately, after the restart it becomes completely unusable, tapping on any app icon will immediately result in Google Search crash.
Pulling down the notification bar and tapping on Settings will result in systemui crash!
At this point, I didn't have much of a choice other than rebooting the device to get it back into working condition. But I also pulled the logcat out of my device before rebooting it.

Did anyone else experience similar problems with the Google Now Launcher? I replicated the same error on my Nexus 4 under similar conditions as well. I want to find out if this is a particular problem with Cal widget or a bug on Google Now Launcher.

Bump!
Can anyone replicate the issue on his/her devices?

My first zooper widget and theming. What do you think?

Hey xda. This is my first time using zooper widget. I tried to go with a transparent black and orange theme. This 4x2 widget shows time, date, battery %, battery temp, battery voltage, current weather, current temp, and the days max and min temps. The clock shortcuts to the clock app. The battery shortcuts to the settings app, and the weather shortcuts to the weather channel app. Also in the top left corner of the widget, I put in a small transparent Z to shortcut straight to zooper widget. I am also running nova launcher, Gel app pack, and pie controls. I am really liking this setup and interested to see what everyone else thinks.

Thats really nice, I think it would be great if the color orange is replaced with white, but depend on the wallpaper
Would you want to share your work? I want to set your widget for my phone.

Decent workaround for 7.3.2.3 Custom Launcher block on Fire HD 8 2020

i found a pretty good workaround for 7.3.2.2 blocking custom launcher
install "Boot Apps." off of the Play store
{
"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"
}
set it to automatically run Nova Launcher( or any launcher )
it works so far on my 2020 edition fire HD 8 7.3.2.3 ( just updated)
Every time I turn on my fire, the FIRE launcher opens up for a few seconds( of course) but then once the Boot Apps program initiates...... opening Nova Launcher.......
So without having to click on ANYTHING..... My custom launcher automatically opens up for me!
Not perfect. but using this with a custom navigation bar with the home button set to ALSO open Nova Launcher IF you do a long press its better than nothing.
until Amazon fks this up on the next update, at least this DOES work.
Enjoy!

Can you tell me what you used to get the home button to long press onto nova launcher please?
