The information found seems to only change the number of rows and columns, but no matter how it is changed, even under the analog resolution of 1710x1112 under MBA, it is very crowded, and the icons are large. Is there a way to only change the icon size without changing the current layout of 4X7?

Anonymous4557 May 6, 2025Macbook launch pad icon resizing method 1. Open the "Startup Pad" and find the "Terminal" icon, as follows: Terminal icon 2. Copy and execute the following 4 lines of command: Defaults write com.apple.dock springboard-columns-int 10 Defaults write com.apple.dock springboard-rows-int 5 Defaults write com.apple.dock ResetLaunchPad-bool TRUE killall Dock Then press Enter. The above meaning: Change the number of columns in the first line of code to 10 icons in 1 line; The second line of code changes the number of lines to 5 lines of icons; Line 3 of code resets Launchpad; The 4th line of code restarts the Dock. (If you like different quantities, modify the digital part yourself). Ways to restore the default settings: Copy and execute the following 4-line command: defaults write com.apple.dock springboard-rows Default defaults write com.apple.dock springboard-columns Default Defaults write com.apple.dock ResetLaunchPad-bool TRUE killall Dock Then press Enter.

Anonymous4557 May 6, 2025But it doesn't meet your requirements. You need to change the number of rows and columns to reduce them

Poster May 6, 2025@ Anonymous4557 # 11 Well, you can find this by looking it up. Increase the number of columns and make the icons smaller, but the spacing is still uncomfortable. I want to change the icon size separately. Now that I use the 6x4 layout, it's OK too.
