Column question/observation/issue - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Something that happened in the ICS to JB upgrade in that I've seemed to lose the ability to have a 5 column widget. I use ADWLauncher EX and have had 5 colums on my Photon and ICS SG 3. I use a Sense-like clock widget and was able to have a 5x2 clock at the top of the screen. After the JB upgrade the height and width of the widget come from predetermined values and the ability to increase or decrease has been lost and a 5x2 option is not available. Am I missing something or is this just the nature of JB? A 4x2 clock on this screen is certainly usable, it's just not centered.

[Q] Multiple UI Questions

Hola, OGs of the keyboard slider,
I have a few questions to ask to improve my homescreen (the black minimalist screenshot).
CM9
Apex launcher
Advanced Clock Widget
Metrostation Icon Pack
1. Which 5-day weather forecast widget is shown in the other attached screenshot? Or a similar app. One that can show vertically would be great, too.
2. What app can display message/call/email notifications as a widget? Preferably one that hides until a message/call/email is received: i.e. doesn't show "0 new messages".
3. Is it possible to have two distinct layouts for the homescreen, one for portrait and one for landscape? Rather than deal with bunched icons or icons hidden offscreen, I currently have Apex lock the homescreen to portrait, even with keyboard slide. I'm okay with this as apps aren't affected but the app drawer is and I often slide the keyboard to unlock my PIN password on the lockscreen.
4. Can I style the PIN password lockscreen in CM9? Every cool lockscreen I've seen never has the PIN pad out.

[Q] Small date/time widget on lock screen

I'm looking for a date/time widget for lock screen smaller than default one present on n7.
I didn't found any way to resize it
The default would be great if it was 3x2 or 4x2 instead it is 4x3.
There are tons of date/time widgets on the store but not all are designed to be placed on lock screen (only on home screen), the few I've found are bigger than what I want
Any suggestion?

Great, the dimension is simply perfect but seems I don't like the weather and it seems can't be removed
Widgetsoid has a lockscreen clock with the date under it

Zooper lets you make your own lock screen widgets with different elements, including clock with date, and you can scale it to any size you want.

Resize 'canvas' ?

I have a widget that was originally a 4x2 (maybe 4x3), but I removed the top layer making it a 4x1 (or maybe a 4x2).
But the preview basically is showing a large empty section on the top half of the preview, and my work on the bottom. Is there a way to crop the 'canvas' size of this existing widget so that I can use it as a 4x1 on my home screen without scaling problems?

Widget Drawer Organizer?

is it possible to show widgets in the widget drawer as app style icons instead of large "widget" icons? i'd like to tidy up my widget drawer (to match the rest of my phone) but it's impossible with the different sized widget icons that hog a full page for just 6. heck, i would be perfectly happy to just list the widgets in a list, as text only, if that were possible. i'm using nova launcher and haven't found any settings that would allow me to alter the widget icons appearance. any thoughts?
