What customisation options are available for the new unity launcher?
I'm looking to understand what are the customisation options available for the unity launcher in 11.10.
Is it possible to modify?:
- size of launcher, (smaller than 32 px? bigger than 64?)
- position of the launcher
- color and opacity
- item organization, (move items freely anywhere in the launcher, as workspaces for ex.)
- any kind of other modification available.
What tools do I need to install to perform these changes?
