Thanks for making this, it's great!
Well the bugs I'm getting:
-Preferences dialog automatically comes back up after exit Konspose and open.
-Stickies name changed to by itself (stickies widget was open).
-Weather deleted itself from dock after I set path and image (did this while weather widget was open).
-Sometimes choppy animation and stuck images like PDidee.

please redownload the release, i got the preference dialog bug myself and forgot to activate the workaround for this konfab problem. should work now
about the stickie problem: solved with the konspose-pref dialog problem workaround
choppy animation and stuck images issue:
it is promised that the next konfab has a image animation engine build in, until then, i can only do animations (fading, moving, etc.) by using a timer, and therefore sometimes the animations are choppy or didn't end right. i will try make them better for the 1st official release.
one more thing: big resolutions and slow machines will make the animations even worse
about the weather unload? hm, what exactely did you do?

The newest version fixes the widget dialog reappearing after a konspose exit and re-enter.
New bug found: when I skip to the next page of widgets, I cant switch back to the first because the counter ( supposed to be 1 of 2) goes crazy and keeps counting up. same goes for when you exit konspose, it shows the 1 of 2 but the 2nd page keeps counting down ie. -45 of 2, -46 of 2 etc..
Great update!

Tried the new version, the bug with the stickies rename fixed, but the weather still dissappeared (widget was open), along with world clock (widget wasn't open).
About the weather, all I did was set the path and then the image and it dissappeared before I could press done. This is while trying to set the path and image while I have the weather widget open, I haven't tried with it closed.
EDIT: Well tried adding weather and world clock again manually and it worked.

Great news! I'm glad I don't have 500+ pages of widgets or my RAM would be done for
Works like a charm now.

Mine still counts up... last time I looked it was at 3058 :slant: and the dock isn't noticing that I set it to konspose only.

Just wondering, would it be possible to make an option for widgets launced by the widget dock to be set to konspose mode by default?

Did you make sure to replace all the folders and files? Also if you move the filename.widget after they've been launched this can happen. It's bestto launch them from within the my widgets folder.

Binary is right, the image suggests, that you haven't the newest recources folder in your WidgetDock folder
(i hope, the whole resource folder wont be necessary anymore after the next konfab release)

Excellent I guess I got here just in time I had no problems with the transition all works well although when trying to add a kon file it will not dislay the file type, allowed file type .widget. Great job so far though.

@Binary
without interacting with them it wont be possible i think
@sean.fletcher
did you download the newest version? please try again
@Pooky
about the daily dose widget: hm, dont know why, maybe i'll take a look at that widget and maybe it is because of the whole currentdirectory bug in konfab (the reason why there is a resouces folder in the widgetdock dir)
tomorrow i will reactivate the spawning checkbox in the preference dialog, there you can disable the spawning for such widgets and they should load normaly.

Great fast Update!! Close cross is much better! Animation is a little choppy for me and sometimes the dock comes up like this.
YAY! someone uses the hula girl.
