How switch: Launcher Pro/TouchWiz?

---

I installed Launcher Pro. I read that you can switch between launchers with a selection. I thought you could do it by press on screen, like when adding a widget, and it would be there. But it isn't.

I have searched through the settings, and can't seem to find it.

Any thoughts?

download home switcher from the market or go here

settings/applications/manage applications/select your home screen program

I dont have an android phone yet so someone correct me if i'm wrong ^^

You can download HomeSwitcher from the Market

Without a switcher, you can go into Settings/Applications/Manage Applications/LauncherPro/Reset Defaults. Then next time you hit the Home button, it'll ask you again which one you want and if you want to set one as default again.

Cool, Thanks.

Uh, now how do you use it? So then I guess I just need to have an icon for it on the desktop.

I did think I saw somethign that brought up a list just by pressing on the screen. Maybe a different app, or settings. I'll continue to investigate that...but thanks again. I can do what I need!

What a great site this is. I hope to return the favor of helpful answers as time goes on.

Long press on the icon and you can change the shortcut options (which app to use, which icon to use, etc)

Whats the app need to be for the phone...
If I select "Phone" application... it doesnt' quite operate like the stock launcher...
When on a phone, the stock launcher when you click on the phone icon, goes to the dialer/call information... when you launch the phone application, it goes to the keypad but not the current call window...
you can get to the current call window by going to the status screen adn clicking on the little green phone during an active call though...
any ideas?

I installed launcher pro beta, but I can't figure out how to add a clock widget!

You can't use the "Samsung Widgets" outside of TouchWiz. Go to the market and search for clock widgets. There are dozens, free and otherwise.
