good idea add by default 3 or 4 columns ? this will work like folder and easy visualization.

u can identify i have favorites on top, tools bottom and by side games.

also u can do it unlimited each 8 icons it will grow. -like tools bottom example, i have 8 and add new 8 icons i will have 2x8 and not 16 single bar direction.

Well, this is an interestring idea and something I haven't considered yet 🤔

I am using the pie menu to quickly run my most used apps with muscle memory. For this to work well, the pie menu shouldn't have more than a handful icons because otherwise the movement requires too much precision to be executed without much care. If I want to run an app that I don't use very often, I would just tap and type some unique letters of its name. But of course, that's just what works for me 😉

When there are many icons in the menu, I can totally see that forming groups can be very helpful. I will think about how to support this. Thanks for bringing that up! 👍
