We have all seen this flip clock/weather widgetI found and loaded beautiful widgets, and the clock and weather are pretty nice but way too big on the PDN. Takes up about 1/3 of the top of the screen. Is there a way to size the widget? Or possibily a different one? I tried to DL and install the one from market but I don't have an androidID yet.

Not sure which one you are using there, but try this: RWBCS File RepositoryI like the Better Alarm Clock one the best so far...

THANKS, I'll check it out. The one I tried was 'beautiful widgits', something like that. It came with a wi-fi off, BT, and the flip clock widgit. It's nice but too big. I'll check yours out.

For a smaller version of the flip clock widget check out this app: Retro Clock Widget v1.6.3 Application for Android | ToolsI may download it and add it to my file repository when I get a chance...

I really like the flip clock, but the flip clock does not run as a widget. When you run it as an app, it takes over the buttons in the dock, that I don't like.

That looks like the HTC clock/weather widget from HTC Sense.

Yes, that is what I am trying to replicate on the PDN.

That one looks decent.

Thanks for the effort....but that one is too small..LOL.I know, I am a P.I.T.A. Thanks again though.

You can't adjust the size of a widget, correct?

For those of you using Launcher Pro on your phone, a new feature (in the paid version) is widget resizing. I first understood it was just for the widgets (e.g., contacts, calendar) built into Launcher Pro, but the option comes up on the free version I have if I do a long touch on other widgets (e.g., I have widgets for CPU, battery, and clock/weather). Of course, this may be a moot point for the PDN. Not clear at all whether it can run the latest version of Launcher Pro (which is awesome, btw).-Matt

Interesting...THANKS

Now I wonder...how does it resize the widget? Stretch? Center and fill? Let us know if you give it a try!-Matt

The version of LP I am using does not give you the option of resizing.

I haven't found any of the flip clock widget to work correctly on the Novel. I have tried Beautiful Widgets, Fancy Widget and Weather Widget Donate. So far the only thing that has worked correctly has been the flip clock in Home++ but that is similar to the one mentioned above.

I think you guys need to stop being so analog and just go for the digital clock!

But I likes me some flips!!!

The latest version of Launcher Pro Plus allows the Weather Widget flip clock to work correctly. Fancy Widget and Beautiful Widget still does not display correctly.
