How to lock all current Icons and Widgets on Homescreen background? - Nova Launcher

It happened now a couple of times.
I put my Android 13 smartphone with Nova Launchcher into pants pocket or into bag.
Then the touch display detects accidentially some moves and move icons or widgets around to other positions.
I am searching a way to prevent this
Since I modify my HJomescreen background, icons and widgets very rarely the best solution would be if Nova would offer a special key combination which toggles the modifiability ON/OFF.
Is there such an option?
or can this be implemented?

Nova launcher has option to lock desktop from changes. You can find it on Nova settings desktop advanced settings.

Interactive wallpapers - No Icons

So this is the concept:
Instead of having a wallpaper with custom Icons, you have a custom wallpaper with the icons designed on the wallpaper itself and the icons set to an invisible icon (Simply save an icon with "Simple Text-Text Icon Creator" without any text). This way you can design complex wallpapers with shapes that have the functions in the painting itself.
Just an idea that came to mind recently, you still have to drop the icons on the correct grid part though. You can change the icon using Apex or Nova launcher.
All the best
Current wallpaper
I have an invisible folder with my most used apps on the left and the gallery at the top. You can also name the folders with a space so only a panel comes up.
At the bottom are phone, messages, app grid and two apps.

[Q] Multiple UI Questions

Hola, OGs of the keyboard slider,
I have a few questions to ask to improve my homescreen (the black minimalist screenshot).
CM9
Apex launcher
Advanced Clock Widget
Metrostation Icon Pack
1. Which 5-day weather forecast widget is shown in the other attached screenshot? Or a similar app. One that can show vertically would be great, too.
2. What app can display message/call/email notifications as a widget? Preferably one that hides until a message/call/email is received: i.e. doesn't show "0 new messages".
3. Is it possible to have two distinct layouts for the homescreen, one for portrait and one for landscape? Rather than deal with bunched icons or icons hidden offscreen, I currently have Apex lock the homescreen to portrait, even with keyboard slide. I'm okay with this as apps aren't affected but the app drawer is and I often slide the keyboard to unlock my PIN password on the lockscreen.
4. Can I style the PIN password lockscreen in CM9? Every cool lockscreen I've seen never has the PIN pad out.

Modify sense 6 launcher to work without softkeys?

HI guys,
When i hide my softkeys, the sense launcher becomes misaligned. The dock goes to the bottom of the screen as intended, but the widgets and apps on the homescreen(not in the dock) don't align themsleves properly, there is a massive gap between the dock and the last row of icons/widgets. However, nova launcher works fine.
Is there anyway to optimize/edit sense launcher so it alligns itself properly when the softkeys are hidden ?
thannks

Stock Launcher Icons

Just got my phone today and started loading my apps noticed that some icons are not taking the stock shape. Is there anyway to force this? It kind of bugs me lol I know I can use another launcher and icon pack but I enjoy the new pixel launcher.
Long-press an open area on the home screen and go into home settings. There's an option to change the shape of the icons.

Remove the apps bar from the home screen?

Is it possible to remove the apps bar from the bottom of the home screen? Instead, I would like to put a horizontal widget there.
You mean the dock where the phone/text and app drawer icons are? With nova launcher you can.
Great, thank you
