-====== Grid Layout Configuration ====== 
  
-The Grid Layout Configuration dialog in Total Launcher provides comprehensive options for adjusting the visual presentation and interactive behavior of grid-based object groups. Modifying spatial arrangements, icon styling, typography, and background properties enables the creation of a highly functional and custom interface. This configuration menu dictates exactly how items align within a structured grid, ensuring precise control over the final design before moving into animation behaviors.
