I'm currently using wp clock for my homescreen clock. Previously I used fancy widgets which allowed me to map the weather icon to weatherbug, and the battery percentage to settings. Because wp clock is a live wallpaper and not a widget, I can no longer do this.
Is there an app out there that would allow me to assign an invisible area in the 2 corners for functions like weather and settings?

the closest thing that I can think of is circle launcher. you can configure each individual widget to only have one icon/app plus you can make the circle widget completely transparent.
an alternative would be to use a 3rd party launcher (ie apex or nova) that allows you to change icons for any given homescreen icon. than just use a transparent icon or pic.

I'm already using apex, I may try your custom icon idea. Would be nice to be able to resize area to 2x2 though.

use desktop visualizer and add a 2x2 widget...then use a transparent/blank icon
That worked beautifully, thanks!

Is there a widget that allows multiple cities which you can scroll through on on the widget and not have to go into the app to change cities?
I don't like having to click multiple times just to change a city to see what the temperature is like there.
there should be one built into tw it's one of the tw widget but it only allows 2 cities
I'm fond of weather eye. Once you set up all the cities you'd like all you have to do is click the top bar to choose between them from a drop down menu. If you're fond of widgets you can even have several 1x1 widgets each displaying a different area, different color schemes, and etc.

Thanks I'll try that next, one of the other ones didn't have some of the cities I needed.
Go weather does. You can change cities directly from the widget

1weather is the best I've used. Gorgeous interface and you can add a nice customizable widget per city.
I have my home city as a widget all the time but when I travel intl I add the other city Widgets.
I can't think of anything they could add to this to make it better.
I've seen some pretty slick weather Widgets screenshots but can't for the life of me find the damn thread. I'm looking for something that doesn't look like sense. Big and pretty is what I'm going after.
I have beautiful Widgets and a few others but nothing appeals to me or doesn't resize to use screen space. Any suggestions?
Also where in the hell is the "Show me your Setup" thread? I've looked in Apps, General, and Q/A
Update:
Found Weather Widgets suitable for now. Still open to suggestions. Links or screenshots preferred.

Try HD Weather Widget. It is HIGHLY customizable and you can make it look as close or as different from Sense as you like.
Here's the show me your screen thread.

There's also Beautiful widgets. It's a bit less complex. I get lost in HD widgets.
i am using asus weather
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1713975
like the clean and simple look
i like palmary weather i bought the pro one. 4x4 is biggest you can go so it doesnt fill screen but the 15 day forecast is nice.
Asus weather? Nice and big...:laugh:
Weather Eye has awesome widgets that are resizable & customizable.
This is the weather app I've been waiting for.

I love be weather and the options
Yea Asus Weather is great and I used it on my N7 before but I came from a Transformer so looking for something different. Ill probably give HD Widgets a go.
Whatever I'm using now is already getting boring.
HD Widgets was what I was looking for. The 4x4 weather widget. They didn't have it in the screenshots so I passed over it. Its OK.

Jorte doesnt allow me to resize the widget....
I use "business calendar" and used Jellybean OS to force resize their largest widget.
I just use the clock on my home screen to launch my calendar app. It's just as fast as swyping to a widget screen. Go launcher lets you resize any widgets.
I use pure grid calendar widget. Its the beat calendar widget hands down! So many options to choose from and themes

Another vote for the Pure calendar and/or the pure grid calendar widgets.
I have the pure calendar widget, but it doesn't have full screen calendar for the N7 (Tablet UI), even if I try to reside it.

pure calendar works full screen for me, i am using Nova launcher though, it allows me to resize.
But currently I am using Android Pro Widgets. It has the size- all resizable, and looks very good. It also has themes like pure calendar.
You should try it, the free version has no themes. I eventually bought the pro version. The facebook widget is also the best one I've seen.
Wizz Widgets ftw. I swear by it!.

i did use pure grid calendar and used the free size widget and set the pixels to 1000 x 1200 and it looks great....
Android pro widgets, love it. Especially if your a former htc sense user, has widgets for just about everything

How do you set up your GS6? Share it here and show off your homescreens!
Here is my setup, screen #3 is my main homescreen (which is why it's in the middle).
