Layout format and Duplicate widgets
I would like to request for 2 features .
New layout format
Currently the layout format is somewhat cumbersome to deal with, widgets arent of same size by default. In some widgets height/width are configurable , in some they are not . getting a widget to an exact position is also somewhat painful and it also doesnt translate well among displays of different resolution.
I would propose if we can do it akin to a tiling manager. Every empty space can either be divided horizontally or vertically or can be assigned a widget instead.
Or simply make every widget resizable and draggable.
- multiple instances of widgets
would be nice to have ability to add multiple instance of same widget. For example. for quick links, i could add social media sites in one group, and my current project in another, switching tab groups is kinda cumbersome , its far more better having it out there visually.
Hello @Iss-in !
Multiple instances of widgets is not possible because they are not reusable components, but "baked-in" the code. That means we would need to rewrite the whole codebase to add a feature like this!
I am currently working on improving the usability of the layout feature. I'll see what it would take to replace it like a tiling manager. It might be easier to implement than what we currently have 🤔
Being able to resize all widgets individually would be a great addition, if we find a simple way to integrate it!
Thank you for your thoughts 👍
