Idea for a simple plugin

this is a simple idea for a menu button plugin for pages in the menu. For example on the iphones home screen you can swipe between pages that are 4x4 of apps. This would be a cool plugin, it would be better if you could customize the amount of apps per page.

Good idea....added it to the list :-) Paging Controls like this are popular and we've done some work with them before. It's a delicate balance with the size of the icons and the position and layout stuff. I say this because Apple does't appreciate / approve screens that look too much like the iOS Springboard. It's a matter of getting creative with the button placement, thats all. On the list.

check out http://cocoacontrols.com/platforms/ios/controls i've seen a ton of interesting things on there I want to play with. browse thru there and i'll bet you'll find something that does exactly what you described. i snagged this recently to use in an app - not sure if TABS and PAGES are the same thing you have in mind.... http://cocoacontrols.com/platforms/ios/controls/altabsview
