I suggest ...

Two lines for icon text like you get with ADW.

Two lines of text under an icon when there are two words instead of one line that fades out to ....... when it is too long.

ADW has the top line in a bigger font than the bottom and slightly overlapping. It looks pretty good.

        I think this is the same as what I'd like to see, multi-line icon label wrapping, only I'd like both lines to have the same font size. I'll vote for this one, since it's almost identical to one I was going submit.

        Absolutely, can we get a platform to for our folders like Nova! Only thing I miss...

        Great idea !!!!!!!

        2 lines of text would be nice. I noticed that in most android smartphones, there are a LOT of vertical & horizontal space between icons, and they are not used.

        At this moment, ADW is probably doing a better job than APEX, but it is far from good. Both launcher will crop even the bottom part of the first line of icon text (especially Asia characters) when you set a bigger font

        Having the option of making better use of screen space to show icon text is desirable.

        My first smart phone and I got a Galaxy S III which uses TouchWiz and it also wraps text of icons on the home screens. As Socheath Ly said, I'd just like to see the icon text on the home screens be the same as it is in the App Drawer.

        Just make it look like how it appears in the drawer. Thanks.

        +1 for two lines of text

        I would prefer it to look like it does in the app drawer rather than ADW's implementation since the overlap looks rubbish!

        The original ICS launcher does this with no problems.
