Backing up nova settings

Quick question, if I use titanium to back up nova launcher, will it safe my desktop icon locations and groups. I find myself doing a ton of flashing, and even more will come once my first nightly builds start finish in my laptop.
I like my layout a very specific way, so hopefully this will work

You can save your layout in nova launcher settings under "backup and import"

You can do titanium or how ^^this guy said. I do with titanium the only thing it doesn't restore are the widgets

I use smart launcher. no widget, very fast and it will automatically split the app into categories. try it.

Why not just freeze it using Titanium Backup?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but two launchers can't simultaneously run together can they? I mean do they run some background service or something?

They can run simultaneously but each time you click the home button it will ask you to choose. And once you choose your main launcher it will ask you to close the other one.

Whats your favorite third party launcher

I was just trying to find a good third party launcher to start using. I'm on the collective ROM.

Try nova launcher. Its the fastest one I've used.

I agree with florad I use nova launcher and found it was the best and I've tried many other launcher. Lots of customization and love the ability to reduce the icon size because KitKat stock icons I find way to big and it feels light for a launcher and not power hungry! Give it a try

I'm using holo right now on the same ROM, I gave it a shot so I could change a few extra settings with xblast
