The Widgets Widget

A cross-platform Widget set launcher.

Assign Widgets to up to 8 groups and then open and close them with a single button click. This version is compatible with Y!WE 3 and tested with Mac OS X 10.3 and 10.4 and Windows XP Pro.

The original version was done by Andreas Baumann.
Current Version: 2.38

    Not sure what the problem could be. Perhaps the widget is off your screen somehow or the preferences file is corrupted. Did you change your screen resolution or your display settings in any way? Try renaming the widget to "The Widgets Widget 2.widget" and opening that. That should give you fresh preferences. I don't know how to delete widget preferences on Windows but there may be something in the forums about it.

    If that still doesn't work then go into log mode and start More

    I downloaded the newest version but when I try to open the Widget it doesn't do anything. I look in task manager and it's there running. I am running XP Pro SP2. The prior version 2.37 I had running fine.

    I've uploaded version 2.38. This version makes a change in the mechanism used on Windows to determine the list of running widgets. I'm hoping it will improve compatibility with different Windows versions, allowing a single click to close a group of Widgets. The shift-click method is still in place in case an unshifted click fails to close the widgets.

    Regards.
