Just updated to April OTA, no update needed to the helper module. I will post an update with more color options to the substratum theme sometime this week. Hope everyone is staying safe!

flashed the first Pixel.2.3.Launcher.Helper.zip and now the pixel launcher crashes wont open???
Navigate to magisk via settings or third part launcher and disable the module. The zip posted is for the April/May ota if you are not on those then you will get FC. If you are on April/May ota make sure you flash the 10.9 zip

Update 07/01/2020.

Added requested feature. Made a slight modification to instructions to add new feature. I have attached instructions on bottom of this post as well.

Changelog
Pixel Launcher Editor v3.9
-Added ability to hide "At A Glance Widget" [Editor 3.9]**THIS WILL ONLY HIDE THE WIDGET. YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PUT ANYTHING IN ITS PLACE**

You must build the theme 3 times in order to have this theme working as intended

1. You must select a grid layout in Option 1
-must be the same option on all three builds​
2. Do not install Android System, it does absolutely nothing
-don't build at all​
3. Select a color option in Option 2 if applicable
-only needs to be built once​
4. If removing searchbar, Option 3 must match Option 1 (ex 6x7 in both options)
-must be the same on all builds​
5. Option 4, 5 , & 6 must have matching #'s (ex 1DrawerText Blue, 1Drawer BlackTrans, & 1Dock10)
-on first build use options starting with 1 (a drawer color option has to be built or other options will not work!)
-on second build use options starting with 2
-on third build use options starting with 3​
6. Repeat steps 1-6 two more times
7. If You would like to hide the At A Glance Widget repeat steps 1-4, go to option 6 (bottom option), scroll to the bottom of the list and select "4HideAtAGlance"
8. Reboot
9. In Substratum, go to manage, select the three or four overlays for pixel launcher and enable them
10. Reboot

Impressive work, tested on Pixel 3, rooted and on the latest July patch - absolutely flawless! :good: Thank you

Would it be possible to add the possibility to customize the Search bar colour? ?

PIxel 3a - launcher force close

I'm getting a force close on the launcher after installing v10.11 via Magisk and rebooting. I believe this is the relevant log:

Sorry for the late response, been messing with Android 11 beta all day. Yes you need to be on August or July security patch for v10.11 to function.

Ok guys, spent pretty much all day porting this over to Android 11. I had to completely rewrite the magisk module and the substratum theme. Installation is the same. Please let me know if you have any issues. I only got to test my usual setup. Enjoy!

Pixel Launcher Editor v4.0 & Pixel Launcher Helper v11.0.0.1
-Updated to Android 11 (DO NOT USE ON ANDROID 10) [Helper 11.0.0.1 & Editor v4.0]
-Editor v3.9 & Helper v10.11 are final versions for Android 10​

Would any of you guys be interested in being able to remove/hide 3 button navigation bar in order to use custom gesture app? I know with android 11 we dont have the overscan api anymore so i added a tweak to a personal release of my editor to be able to hide 3 button navigation bar via substratum. Added a poll to the Pixel 4XL thread. Please vote!
