Paginate the Launcher

The conference badge ships without menu pagination, so the launcher hides any app past slot six. Swap in the paginated menu/__init__.py from the Tufty repo to unlock scrolling.

Prerequisites

Badger 2350 connected over USB (mounted as the badger volume)
Web browser and VS Code ready

Steps

Create an override copy of the menu app (first time only)
- Open the badger volume in Finder or File Explorer.
- Copy system/apps/menu and paste it into apps/ so you have apps/menu you can edit safely.
Back up the current launcher file
- In Finder or File Explorer, duplicate badger volume/apps/menu/__init__.py and rename the duplicate to __init__-backup.py in the same folder (or drag a copy to your desktop).
Grab the paginated source from GitHub
- In your browser, open badge/apps/menu/__init__.py.
- Click Raw, select all, and copy the contents.
Replace the launcher code in VS Code
- In VS Code, open badger volume/apps/menu/__init__.py.
- Select the existing contents, paste the code you copied from the Raw view, and save the file.
Eject the badger volume, tap Reset, and let the badge reboot into the updated launcher.

What Changed

The patched launcher keeps a moving window of six icons per page and wraps input between pages:

APPS_PER_PAGE = 6
current_page = 0
...
if active >= len(icons):
    if current_page < total_pages - 1:
        current_page += 1
        icons = load_page_icons(current_page)
        active = 0

See the upstream file for the full implementation: badge/apps/menu/init.py.

Verify

From the launcher, press C until selection moves off the grid—pagination should advance to the next set of apps.
Confirm the page indicator (e.g. 1/2) renders in the lower-right corner.

Rollback

Restore the backup if you need the stock launcher:

Open the backup you made in step 2 (either the duplicate file beside __init__.py or the copy on your desktop), paste its contents back into badger volume/apps/menu/__init__.py with VS Code, save, and reboot the badge.
