Home screen text on icons

[Guest mre15]

Is there anyway to change the text on icons in the home screens to look the same as in the dock.

The dock often gets 2 lines of text and the homepage as a max of about 12 characters.

I have several apps were only the last 2 letters are different and I cant see them.

Its not like there isnt enough space for the text.

Cheers.

Think you need to use a new launcher system to edit titles and layouts in the way you want. If you go to the Market and enter 'launcher' in the search box you will find several. Launcher PRO and ADW Launcher are two popular ones :mellow:

I don't think this is something you can change easily. You can't just "extend" the text box of an app label.

What I'd suggest is using an app that allows you to create and rename shortcuts, that way, you'd be able to name each app by their identifying characters?

eg

My-really-long-app-name-1

My-really-long-app-name-2

rename to :

MRLAN1

MRLAN2

So that it fits into the default space?
