Folders at Home Screen

[manewinho]

Hi,

I'm new here and also new to Android devices. I've bought a brand new Galaxy Tab and after spending some time playing with it I have some doubts.

1. Is it possible to "pin to home screen" pdf files?
2. Can I "pin to home screen" a folder that was created by me on "My Files"?
3. After creating a new folder on the home screen how can I send files to that folder?

Sorry for this noob questions but I'm not used to work with Android systems and don't know how to do some (probably) basic things.

Cheers,

Yes to the first two. I do this with Astro File Manager. After installing astro, go to your home screen and select Menu --> Add --> Shortcuts --> Astro --> Navigate in Astro to the desired file or folder then Press-n-Hold it until you get the "Shortcut Name" pop-up dialog. Fix the name, select OK, and the new shortcut is on your desktop.

I haven't figured out how to do your #3.

Create the folder on your home screen, then create the shortcut on your home screen.

Once both are created, drag the shortcut to the folder.
