Hello,

the launcher of cm11 only has two pages/panels and does not seem to support folders.
With Trebuchet launcher of cm9 this was still supported pretty fine. Or did I overlook anything?
Is there any tip from anybody how to configure that?...

Thank you very much.

Just drag an icon or widget to the right(from the rightmost page) to create a new page. And folders can be made by putting one app icon on another

Thank you very much. That's it.
My girl-friend found it out today also. I failed before after several tries. ;)

Anyway a little info text within the launcher would have helped here! Cause I suppose I am not the only one who has problems with that...

Do you also know?...
* where to set the order option of the icon overview screen? (there is NO settings -> personalization -> Homescreen option in my version!!) I cannot find how to set it to alphabetical order.
* how to move the icons order manually?
* how to set the HOME desktop panel? When I press Android Home button always the most left panel is selected instead of the middle one.

Thank you very much for your help.

I don't use the stock CM launcher, but I'm pretty sure pressing the menu button will get some options if they exist
