About the settings of widgets.
I use Calengoo calendar and this has a widget, on the widget settings you can alter the transparency.
You can change these settings when adding the widget to a screen but on my previous htc one I could alter them after the widget was put on a screen.
Long pressing the widget gave me the opportunity to delete or edit it.
On the xperia z1c I can only see the garbage can when long pressing the widget, I do not have the opportunity to change the widget.
Is this normal or is there a possibility to edit the widget after installation?

Does anyone know if there are 3x1 or 2x1 sized Google search bar widget?
Thanks.
Not sure, but with ADW.launcher it is possible to resize widgets.
Just enable greater than 4x4 grid on the homescreen and when adding a widget you will have an option to set the size manualy.
It may be a different option in ADW settings, I use LauncherPro personaly.
Yes ADW launcher does it, tested right now.
maybe not what your looking for but if you longpress the menubutton you get the search-inteface directly
I realize that with the latest Launcherpro, we can now resize widgets including this Google search bar.
Why do you need a google search widget?
Just hold downt the left touch key to bring up google search. its excatcly the same as pressing the google widget..
Having flagrantly stolen (been inspired by?) this Hubs UI, I'm now extremely close to having my Nexus 7 look and work exactly the way I want it. I'm using a combination of ADW, Minimalistic Text, Simple Text, and MultiPicture Live Wallpaper.
However, I find myself confounded by one small piece:
The icons along the center bar are tied to custom App Groups. My problem is that clicking on them causes the app group to open directly over the center bar. I'd like it to open above the center bar.
Any ideas? Thanks!!!
There's a roundabout way to do what you want. With an app called Popup Widget, you can created a shortcut that, when clicked, makes a widget appear. You can control where it appears; one choice is above the shortcut, which is what you want. Now you need to make a widget with icons for each of the apps in your group. I do this with Elixir Widget, but I'm sure there are other programs that will work.
So: there's a shortcut on the black bar, when you click it a widget appears above the bar, and the widget shows the apps in your group. Of course, this all assumes you can put shortcuts in the black bar.
Got the OTA update yesterday, on totally stock E980 phone. Everything seems to be working, including MMS and Exchange mail.
New KK lockscreen....can I change the style of the clock? I used to have the clock along with weather. Cannot find any way to change clocks.
If I swipe along the top of the lockscreen (only to the right), I get additional screens, which I've put a few widgets on. Can I make one of them the default lockscreen? I'd prefer to have the weather app on the lockscreen (which also has a clock showing). Can't figure out a way.
At the bottom of the "swiped" lockscreens there is a large arrow. If I click on this, my battery status and "owner info" pops up. Is this arrow usable for something else? What if I wanted the owner info, or appointments, battery status, etc...to always be in the popped-up position?
Also, can multiple lockscreen widgets be placed on the same page? For example, I'd like to place the calendar (agenda) widget on the same page as the weather widget.
Can any of this be done?
Oh and BTW, I did notice that when asking "OK Google" to play any of the music I have stored on Google Play, it finds and starts it now 100% of the time.
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?
I accidentally removed the official clock widget from the LockScreen (the widget on the picture attached).
I can't find a way to add this circle clock widget back onto my lockscreen. How can I add it back?
Hmm... Add the widget again? I tried looking for it now but I don't see it either.
Remove all widget from your lockscreen. All of them. Then press the lock button and press it again now you should see it.
