thescooby001 Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 I have been using Konfabulator for some time now and am happy with it, however I dislike the fact that to load a widget that you don’t use often you have to go to the widget folder and get it. My question is… has anyone seen a “good” widget (or the like) that will organize your other widgets? I am looking for something along the lines of this. I know that’s a lot to ask for being this is an actual SS from Tiger and all… but what can I say, I have OCD. Thanks in advance for any and all help! Link to comment
S@m Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 i saw that before but its with desktop x.. i dont know where it is now... Link to comment
Sranshaft Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 It is still around and available herePlease be avised that as stated in the previous comment it is for DesktopX and your screen resolution MUST be 1280 x 1024 for it to work properly. I am currently without a computer but have plans on updating the theme to be resolution independent in the future. As a side note: I am sure if Konfabulator widgets can call programs then it shouldn't be too hard to code it to call widgets as well seeing as they are program-like in application. Link to comment
Laertis Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 There is one called widgetdock , it might be usefull .http://www.widgetgallery.com/view.php?widget=36466 Link to comment
thescooby001 Posted April 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2005 OMG!!! I can’t believe I didn’t think about this before… I was getting pissed off @ the widget dock that Laertis mentioned and I couldn’t dissect the Desktop X theme enough to just get the part I wanted. So I start reading peoples comments for the widget dock to see if I could just change some code or something to make it work better for my needs, then it dawns on me… I’m running OD with the Dashboard icon pointing to widget_dock.widget, why not get another dock app. (e.g. RKLauncher) and point my master dock to a slave dock w/ just widgets on it!::duh:: So I just slapped a skin on it and icons to finish the effect and presto… my new dashboard! PEOPLE, I am SO glad that I could have my biggest brain fart yet this year on aqua-soft forums! Link to comment
XanthraX Posted April 14, 2005 Report Share Posted April 14, 2005 If somebody of yours has DesktopX Enteprise and can make independent widgets and widgets dock, the problem will be solved. Link to comment

Ghostwalker Posted April 17, 2005 Report Share Posted April 17, 2005 I was kind of hoping someone would send me the real images just getting it ready for then but if I do decide to release it I will get ahold of you for permission and approval of the widget first.

amitsaraf32 Posted April 20, 2005 Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 Oh dear ! Not again !! This is the third forum I've been to which has been spammed to Thy Kingdom Come with this !!! You're asking for a ban, m8 ! Please be careful in future !! Link to comment
Saladin Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 so... anything happening on this? OSX-e.com is spouting up with lots of Tiger resources (some members got their copies of tiger shipped early and are ripping resources out like no tomorrow). A good quality, big screenshot can be found at: http://www.osx-e.com/gallery/files/0/mac_desktop_10_4.jpg Shows the dock really nicely. Sure you could rip em off the screenshot and they'll still look nice Link to comment
Ghostwalker Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 Had to put it to the side for now, until I port all the widgets I can then I will get back to the dock.screenies:http://img237.echo.cx/img237/1351/capture242004163ia.jpghttp://img237.echo.cx/img237/7447/untitled9pb.jpgeverything on the back of the stickie will work Im down to making the dropdown menus now and the are the hardest to do in konfab(and make them work and look right) Im looking at the Queries widget for code because it has the best os x menu.p.s. If anyone has the images for the dock ghostwalkers(dot)ghost@gmail(dot)comalso I need that little round x,which I assume is for closing the widget Link to comment
Saladin Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 looking nice so far. Anything that you can distribute yet, or are you planning to put it all in one big packet? Link to comment
Unbeliever Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 this thread's title is beyond stupidity :slant:whoever started it made it sound he was looking for a Dashboard clone, not the widgets Link to comment
