I'm wondering if anyone else is having this issue. When I enable five icon dock, it shifts them to the left, so they're skewed... instead of centered\spaced evenly.

Anyone figure out a way around this?
 
Infinidock works well.

Iconoclasm not so much (SB icons shoved too far left).

iPhone 6

Woot! Good call on Infinidock! Looks great. Yeah I just need to be able to shrink my icons down (looks silly on the 6 when the icons are so huge). Shrink and Bigify don't work. :-(
 
Home screen designer works well (and I've always liked it better than iconoclasm anyway). No resorting a needed either, multi page layouts, etc.

Using HideMe8 for my five icon dock now.
 
Five icon dock (ios7)

You might want to try Five Icon Dock (IOS7)
from weamdev.org/repo/
It gave me a good 5 icon dock on my 5s with no problems.

That, plus Dockshift which gave me a dock without page dots and a transparent background.

It didn't shift them to the left, but it spreads then out far and has the icons on the ends going past the screen a bit.

@iParis: You must have the 6+? Wonder if the icons would be cut in half if you used the "zoomed" effect?

No, iPhone 6. Eh, maybe not cut off, but if not then exactly on the edge of the screen with the right icon's bubble definitely off the edge.

I'm using HideMe8, you'll have to google the repo... The icons are closer together and not even close to the edge. The badges to touch the other icons a little though. I think it looks better. And it does hella more than the dock also!

Yeah, I installed that (had to do it from insanelyi because the repo was giving me issues) and it was cool and all at first, but then proceeded to give me a bunch of issues. I turned on no dock background, but wanted to turn it off to use ClassicDock. I resprang, rebooted, uninstalled, reinstalled, uninstalled again, deleted a .plist preference from iFile, resprang again, and after all that the dock background still missing each time. : \ Not too sure what to do and I couldn't really find another .plist..

I use five icon dock (ios7) from weamdev.org/repo. Works well.
 
I was using hideme8 which spaced then close together, other 5 icon dock has them touching the sides of the screens... This is perfectly spaced imo. Just check it out you'll be happy;)

*Even works in Zoomed mode!

Why is it better? Aside from working on 6+, which is irrelevant to most since most have 6's.

It works better on the 6 as well (at least without Springtomize being updated). The icons fit better on the 6 with betterFiveIconDock.
 
It looks like home screen designer has been updated for ios8, but I can't download it because I didn't previously purchase it? It says device not currently certified. iPhone 6.

I don't get it. Infinidock is 100% on my 6. Please point out how on a 6 betterFiveIconDock is superior.
 
I only use landscape while watching videos/movies, so most of the time lock my orientation. While in portrait mode HSD and infinidock seem to work fine, except they don't line up completely (if that bugs you).

Damn that looks gorgeous on a 6+ ... still waiting for Shrink\Bigify to update so I can shrink down my icons and have a similar look on my 6.
