I was wondering. Is there any way to resize the live space widget? In my opinion it's just too small. I know it gets bigger when you change the display size for the whole system in settings but that's not really what I want.
You mean like this using Nova Launcher Prime (or other custom launcher, I assume - the outline is just from me taking a screenshot while in process of resizing it):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

That's the old at a glance widget. I mean the new live space widget in the upper left corner.

I don't think I've met any widget that I couldn't resize in Nova. That's another thing I like about Google Pixels. All their widgets are regular Android widgets, not OEM-specific, so easily useable on other than the stock launcher. I'm not running 12L (or 13), so I can't answer specifically.
I assume you're using the stock Pixel Launcher?
Hopefully, someone on 12L using Nova or another custom launcher can tell you, but if you're committed to using the stock launcher, then there probably isn't any alternative unless someone creates a flashable mod for it, but that's probably not a long-term viable solution either.
Disregard.

I'm on 12L Nova and I don't have that new widget.
Checked on Pixel Launcher and I have it but can't resize.

I was suspecting maybe it's a launcher-specific feature. I'll be upset if I can't have that on any launcher I want - I'm going to keep using Nova Launcher Prime no matter which way it goes. Maybe they'll turn it into an actual proper widget eventually?

I know, right? When I switched over to Pixel launcher I saw all these new At A Glance (Live Space) features and the widget looked really nice and I was like, "Oh, maybe I'll stay with Pixel Launcher. This is nice."
30 seconds later I went back to Nova
Hopefully Nova will add this

Title is supposed to say: Why is it impossible to have LauncherPro icons at the bottom and the Sense Clock/Weather widget on top?
At least, I think it's impossible.
Because I've seen some pictures where people have both. But I'm not sure if that's just a photoshopped pic or what.
Does anybody know if it's possible?
And if not, why not??
My guess is it's NOT the sense clock. It's beautiful widgets' clock running on launcher pro.
like above, you are either seeing beautiful widgets or the discontinued fancy widget. Technically the sense theme is part of the rosie/sense launcher. Launcher pro replaces your stock launcher which only the sense widgets seem to be compatible with.
Thanks for the quick answers guys.
I'm talking about this one:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"

How is this done?
Because the 'Beautiful Widget's' one isn't like this.
Yes that is fancy widget you're seeing.

Well hello Mr. Dsl.
Any idea on where I can get that fancy widget? Since the 3rd poster said it's discontinued now?
Can you possibly send me a copy of it (if it's not a paid version?)

Actually, I think that's the Sense weather. The dock at the bottom is a modified version of the Sense dock, so it's not LauncherPro anyway.

I'm trying to understand why no one has hacked the htc weather widget to work outside of the sense UI. Is this just not possible? All I want is the stock widget with adw launcher. I use beautiful widgets and Fancy Widget, and I don't like either as much as the sense version. Can someone enlighten me on this matter? Thanks.

Just not possible. It's tied too deeply into Rosie, the launcher for Sense, which is in turn, tied too deeply into the Sense framework. There's no way to port it, at least not without *HUGE* issues, if it works at all. Sorry
I found an old version of FancyWidget that looks exactly like the Sense weather/clock.
I use weather toggle, its fantastic

are you just looking for the sense animations?
those are part of beautiful widgets as well (separate download that will fire off once you select weather animations)

Thanks for the info. I appreciate that. I would even use a Sense-based ROM if I could just use ADWlauncher EX, but that won't even work

I might give that a shot. Although, I wanted the animations that sense provides, by far the best IMO.

I'm currently using beautiful widgets and the animations seem to cause a pretty hefty battery drain. It might be other things though which I should probably look into.
Thanks to everyone's responses. I can't believe no one can rip this widget out of sense, but if it can't be done, it can't be done

I just installed K-9 email client and like it a lot. The only problem is that it doesn't seem possible to put it's unread count widget into the dock. I can put other widgets in the dock, but not this one. Is there any way around that or another widget I could use of that sort that would go in the dock?
I'm not rooted, stock, no launcher. If there is a launcher that would accomplish this, I'd consider it, but otherwise the stock works for me.
You could definitely try Apex launcher.
Okay, I've installed Apex Launcher, purchased Apex Pro, installed Apex notifications, but still can't figure out how to get an icon for K-9 unread mail into the dock.
I see that I can have the K-9 unread count show on either the email icon or the Gmail one, but then tapping on the icon opens those apps not K-9. I have missed something?
Please explain how to do this.
TIA
Okay, I've found the Apex setting to allow widgets in the dock and have put the K-9 unread email widget there. That works; but the icon is so ugly and smaller than the other ones in the dock. Long press doesn't give any edit settings for it. Any way I can get this working with a nicer icon?
Nova prime had the feature and you can change your icon to anything you want.

Long press the app.
Click edit and itll bring up this.
Tap on the icon next to the name. After that it'll have choices. I do have a icon pack i use.

That works for other icons, but the K9 icon doesn't have the choice of edit on a long press.
Which is your favourite launcher right now?
Nova launcher

I'm actually using IN Launcher N or the stock Pixel Launcher. I like Nova also, but I hate it still doesn't have a basic features like A-Z sorting with visible letters. What I mean looks like this:

Yes, this shot is made on MM with Xposed, that's why the statur bar looks a lot different. Honesty I didn't yet tried to install Ampere after the Nougat update.

Free and refreshing unlike Nova

And main thing about Eevie launcher is its features available even though if we are'nt PRIME members

i will test using another launcher a whole day, then report back

Thank you, when I created this thread I was looking for informations on how to get best from this phone while changing launcher and decreasing battery drain

I also switched from Nova to Eevie.
Fast, nice customization, free and not overloaded.
Nova. There's little competition.

Also it is battery friendly.

Nova Launcher Prime, and Wallpaper Changer by XDA's @j4velin (not still around? "Last seen Jul 16, 2020" "Inactive Recognized Developer" ) to change wallpapers every time I unlock, and I can double-tap in an empty spot to manually change to the next random wallpaper (of my selected album full of them). Nova Launcher Prime Even restored data via Google in this v7. Most of my wallpapers are fantasy/sci-fi paintings by Jim Burns. I have my camera "app" set to open Google Photos if I swipe down on it, and open the camera folder if I swipe up on it to show all my camera-related apps. Similarly for "Phone", "GPS"/Google Maps, "Messaging", and "Internet". I have Nova set to lock the screen using Accessibility permissions when I swipe down with two fingers. Works great! Swipe left, I still have it go to Google Discover/News.
^like your Weawow weather widget which I use on my OnePlus devices. Still waiting on Pixel delivery to start rocking... Cheers
