Question about Adw Ex launcher - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm using the Adw Ex launcher and was wondering if someone can tell me if it has the sense like screen preview ( the pinch feature to see all the screens) if it does have it, how do I activate it?
I know the regular Adw launcher has it but I'm having a difficult time finding the feature in Adw Ex launcher.
Thanks

Launcher is just the stock Android launcher and twlauncher is TouchWiz
I tried switching to launcher and it was taking too long so I cancled it, how long does your phone take to switch

It has to set it up for the first time mines took about 45 sec I believe. And the stock launcher is not all that bad. Really smooth as well!

Nova Launcher, Apex Launcher or Stock?

I'm wondering which launcher to use on my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747. So I'm considering either Nova or Apex. I like how Nova Is more customizable but Apex has more functions. I also like the stock Touchwiz theme. Which launcher should I use? Also can anyone suggest any other launchers besides GO Launcher EX.
I personally use nova and I love it. It's fast and smooth.
Nova

I also use Nova but have been trying Next Launcher for the past couple days and I like it so far for it being in the early stages.

You should try ADW Launcher.It's one of the first, and it's come a long way.

Nova prime mostly, but sometimes go back to apex they're both great

I have 3 launchers set up which I swap between depending what I'm doing. I use Nova occasionally whilst driving. The gestures make it very easy to quickly open apps with one hand. I use TouchWiz daily for the S-Planner widget, which only works on TouchWiz. When I feel creative or get an idea for a UI I use sslauncher, which gives gridless design possibilities, overlapping widgets and resizable icons and the ability to have different wallpapers on every page. I use "Home chooser pro" to swap.
+1 for ADW! I use the paid version personally, and I love it.
I used apex for the longest time but recently switched to nova and love it.

One of the first things I did was to install Nova Prime on my S3.
Nova. Nuff said.

I switched to Nova because ADW was dead. Now it's back. Not sure I'll switch back to it.

ADW EX, and nova are my favorite. I like ADW EX because you can scale the size of your icons.

I use Nova Launcher and I love it. From my experience it is much smoother than the stock launcher.

I used ADW Ex for the longest time and thought it was great but switched to Holo HD and have been super happy with it since.

Favorite Launcher?

What is everyone's favorite launcher? I am running Stock TW rooted. Tried Launcher Pro, wasn't too impressed. What do you guys like?
Holo Launcher HD Pro
Nova Launcher here.

Nova or apex. Ive noticed that Nova can be faster and less laggy but I think apex has a few more features.
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda premium
Paid for Apex Pro and tend to use it. Switch to Nova and Holo with some Roms. Always come back. Shut off all animations anyway.

Ran Apex for the longest time, as ADW had been all but abandoned since ICS launched. But, now that ADW EX was finally updated; I'm back to running it again.

[Q] Apex/Nova Launchers

Anyone know how to load the discover menu from these two launchers?
I use apex and have to launch the ouya launcher if I want the discover screen.
I just have a shortcut on the homescreen then go back into apex with a double click of the ouya button.

The dev for baxty(sp?) Launcher has been trying to code it in, but says that it is deliberately blocked.

Launchers.

So what kinds of Launcher's you guys using? My personal favorite has always been Holo Launcher Hd. Great launcher with tons of options. And I love the landscape home.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
I use nova.
I never tried anything else because I was always so happy with Holo. But I might try nova now. Great to hear other options.

Just in case you are still not sold.. lol. I am adding another vote for nova launcher. Always keep coming back to it.
Random q: anybody know if there is a separate flashable file or something to get transition animations like the *gulp* iLauncher

Buzz launcher is pretty slick if you want a totally different UI

Next Launcher. You can actually score it free on Facebook too cause they post betas before they do a new release.
SS launcher was on Nova launcher for years and switched to this cause the scrolling up and down instead of pages. But also has pages. Great launcher

I use TSF Shell. Best launcher ever if you can stomach the price.

I've bounced between Nova and Apex, but Nova mainly.
Both are pretty slick and both also put some effort into the notification side of things. I am accustomed to the bubble notifications and bothe Apex and Nova has them with support for Samsung Mail as well as Google Voice. Nova also supports MissedIt! which gives you bubble notifications for just about anything that puts a notification on the top status bar.
I wish more of these launchers would put more effort into the notification side.
Smart Launcher is where its at for me
Before they release an update the Go team releases a beta on Facebook that is fully functional. I purchased this launcher when it first was released but now you can pretty much get it for free. I think you will like it.
