where is it located?

[mrkgoo]

Maybe it's just me, but I count six rows.

Five rows of apps + dock. So there are six rows total. (standard iPhone springboard is four rows + dock = five rows)

must be you I see 5x5

[zander271]

It's not showing up in cydia... :(

[Nanook]

Which repository? Not seeing it.

[zander271]

ya woulda helped had he told us. It's http://cydia.touch-mania.com add that source and it will show up.

[Night Spring]

BTW, you can use this together with Five Columns to get 25 icons on a page. Pretty crowded, but it looks ok if you hide the app names.

Sorry about that:( But I just have the Steffwiz "All Sources" program added and that way you don't have to add sources one by one:)

[map1978]

too cluttered IMO. five icon dock is definitely great though.

Rows are horizontal.
Columns are vertical.

There are 6 rows and 5 columns of icons in the first post.
There are 5 columns and 5 rows of icons in the second post.
Normally there are 4 columns and 5 rows of icons.

But the bottom row is the dock, which is why this app is called "Fivelrows" and described as giving you five rows.

[The General]

Hey, can you install 5 columns and 5 rows and have 5x5 above the dock? Then put the five icon dock on there and you'll have 30 icons on your screen at once instead of just 20!

I said you could up at post #11. :D

It doesn't look cluttered to me :D But with the 5 columns installed with this will make it look cluttery :P

Conventionally--yes, but not with computers. In Excel a row is vertical and a column is horizontal and when making tables in HTML a row is vertical and a column is horizontal.

Can't speak for HTML, but you are wrong on Excel.

woah that'd be ridiculous.. i wanna see a screen shot of that. with a 5 icon dock that would actually be 30 icons....

a bit overkill, but whatev ;)

false. that wouldn't make sense.

Not even Microsoft would do that.

Is this a joke? Didn't everyone install it then remove it after a cramped SpringBoard over a month ago?

No. The one that was released a while back made five *columns.* This new one makes five *rows.*

Except they did and it's a web standard. Try using colspan and rowspan when making a table in HTML and tell me what happens.

[Night Spring]

Try using colspan and rowspan when making a table in HTML and tell me what happens.

colspan = spans columns, therefore connects two or more horizontally aligned cells into one cell.

rowspan = spans rows, therefore connects two or more veritcally aligned cells into one cell.

[efice32]

Columns = vertical
Rows = horizontal

end of discussion on that.

-------------

This is pretty cool especially if you incorporate some blank icons...you could make some cool designs or patterns with your icons. Also if you have a background picture that you don't want the icons to completely cover up this would give you more freedom in the placement of the icons.

Like in this situation:
http://img300.imageshack.us/img300/1646/img0015yx9.png

You could easily fit another icon on the top row but with the standard 4x4 configuration it would cover up part of the building. However with 5x4 or 5x5 you could fit 3 icons on the top row without covering it up. Pretty cool stuff.

[Nanook]

This is strange. The first post in this thread shows a screen shot with 5 rows in the Springboard, and the second post shows one with 5 columns.

And since there seems to be some confusion over terminology:

3 ROWS:
- - - -
- - - -
- - - -

4 COLUMNS:
| | | |
| | | |
| | | |

S = SPRINGBOARD (swipeable) - D = DOCK (fixed in place):
S S S S
S S S S
S S S S
S S S S
D D D D

Anyway, I'd like to have 5 columns, but I think 5 rows would look too tight as I want to keep the app names underneath each icon. Which app are you guys talking about to accomplish 5 columns, and in which repository would I find it?

I have a feeling this app would do what I want, as it is named FiveIRows, which I believe stands for "Five Icon Rows" which is another, more confusing way, of saying "Five Columns." I'm just confused about the first two screen shots in this thread.

Whew.

The first screen shot was a demo of "FiveIRows."
The second one was a demo of "Five Colums."

Just search for "five" in cydia, and I think you should be able to find them.

Thanks!

Hmmm, my copy of Five Columns is from the SOS repository. (http://cy.sosiphone.com)

Wow, this is actually really cool. It has made me switch themes over from Bluebird to MobilePod...now to tweak everything..thanks for sharing!

What source should I use to get that 5 icon dock?

[Vandam500]

It's the Gruppled Theme

What source should I use to get that 5 icon dock?

Just add All Sources by Steffwhiz and type 5 icon dock in cydia.

[fuzion11]

so if i have steffwiz does that mean i have access to all sources/repositories??

[Dakotafan]

too cluttered IMO. five icon dock is definitely great though.

this is correct

[Gix1k]

Well I suppose so, at least the more popular ones. I haven't needed to add a source manually after adding it though.

But remember you have to add All Sources from Steffwiz, not just have the Steffwiz source.

[PatrickRolfsen]

is that icon set part of the fiverows software? I like it


** N/M i figured it out :D


.

[Night Spring]

Nope, fiverows just changes the way icons are arranged. People have been posting whatever themes they happen to be using. Mine is a mix of icons from Glass Orbs, Vivid, some Categories icons, and unchanged icons that came with the apps.

[Gix1k]

Way too close together. Plus you can see the name of some icons on the next screen on the current screen. I uninstalled it.

[ibuyufo]

It's the Gruppled Theme

Thanks for answering my question. I do have another one though. How did you do add the border to the clock? Is that a well known mod? Thanks.

[Night Spring]

That's just how the clock icon looks in that theme.

Thanks but I'm not talking about the clock icon. I'm asking about the clock on the status bar on top.

That is what the Gruppled theme does to the clock. It encloses it like that

That is so weird. When I have grappled activated through winterboard I don't see what you get in yours. I wonder if somehow I missed downloading something or I somehow messed it up.

[alphatectz]

this isnt working for me, i got it to add an extra row but i cant put 5 apps into one row only allows me to put 4 in a row not 5. what am i doing wrong?:confused:

You need to install Five Columns.

FiveIRows alone gives you five rows, four columns.
Five Columns alone gives you five columns, four rows.

If you install both, you get five rows and five columns.

I have no idea. I am no longer using the gruppled them but I just checked and it does do that to the time. That is weird. I don't see anything else installed that can be effecting it either.
