Is there any way to reduce the size of icons in Launchpad? They're ridiculously large on my iMac...
iMac 24-inch, MacBook Air 13", Mac Mini, Mac OS X (10.6.5), 2x iPhone 4, 2x iPod nano
Awesome! Thanks so much for posting the solution.
I've noticed with my launch pad icons, they got bigger when I made the dock icons get smaller. The second I made the dock icons larger again, the launch pad icons got smaller.
Ashka i love you. Not the solution i was hoping for, but at least its something more logical than the present state.
You are very welcome, have a great day.
Did you get it to work?
It worked for me on Mavericks 10.9.1, thank you very much @Lifesmacro!
I added "sudo" before first line:
> sudo defaults write com.apple.dock springboard-rows -int 10
Yup, did the trick for me on 10.9.1 also, so easy to do, glad I found this as many other places on the net either made it sound like a hassle to change, or not possible.
Thanks again...Ian
Thanks, this did the trick on 10.9.3😎
Absolute legend. Worked for me. This really should be a setting in system preferences.
Thank you very much Lifesmacro, but not work on 10.8.5 😟
defaults write com.apple.dock springboard-rows -int 10
defaults write com.apple.dock springboard-columns -int 10; killall Dock
Works for me on El Capitan 10.11.13. I found 8 rows and 8 columns seems to be an ideal size on my MBP 15".
