How to make an invisible (transparent/blank) app icon in Nova Launcher?
In Nova Launcher Prime 6.x, how does one make an app's icon invisible (completely transparent / blank)? I can try to find (or create) an icon pack that contains a blank icon (preferably on F-Droid), but I'm hoping there is a faster solution.

Is that just on my device, and i must have made an unintended theme change somehow?
**If not - how to get rid of the lines!**

Is it possible to use icon packs with the ASUS launcher?
I have a DigiLand tablet that I have downloaded and it runs the so-called "ASUS" launcher. I had downloaded many icon packs before my switch to this launcher. I am wondering, if it is possible to use icon packs, how do I do it? Thanks.

Do I need to keep the icon pack installed on my phone in order to keep using that icon in Nova Launcher? Or did Nova copy the icon to its data, and I can safely uninstall the pack?
The question's scope excludes workarounds, such as extracting individual icons from a pack. It's a good idea but for a different question.
