Description

[Ed Morley [:emorley]]

>> Feature Request Summary:
Home screen settings say four columns, but only three are shown

>> Description of feature, or problem to be solved
Using the Z3C foxfooding device with the latest FOTA/OTA installed (build number: eng.naoki.20151007.074137, build identifier 20151023101519).

STR:
1) Switch to homescreen
2) Note how many columns of app icons are displayed
3) Open settings
4) Click "Home Screens"
5) Observe option selected for "Icon layout"

Expected:
The number of columns shown on the homescreen matches that chosen in settings.

Actual:
Three columns are displaying on the homescreen, but yet the "Icon Layout" setting has "Four columns" selected.

Note: I previously had the four column layout selected with the old homescreen.

Clicking the "icon layout" setting, seeing that "four columns" had a check-mark next to it, and pressing "ok" didn't help.

However choosing "three columns", pressing ok, then chooseing "four columns" and pressing ok again, did fix the issue.

It would be good to make sure existing users are transitioned to a consistent state :-)
