Widgets

[Crusader]

Does anyone here know anything about Mac/Apple Widgets?

 

I'm working on one and will need some testers.

[hum-an-ole]

By "know", do you mean use? If so, I wouldn't mind volunteering to be a tester. I've got an Emac and a Powerbook and use widgets on a daily basis.

widgets are awesomesauce, yet I only know how to add them/remove them from my dashboard

[hum-an-ole]

As opposed to what? Using them?

When I read this thread, I was reminded of word problems. If you have 39 parts total and 17 widgets worth $50 each, how many screws do you have if you have $447 worth of parts and each screw is worth $2?

[hum-an-ole]

What you just said made absolutely no sense to me. Do I just need to smoke another one or can anyone else make that out?

widgets kinda sound like white midgets that are trying to be black.

 

i'm just saying.

I have a Mac. You can test it out on me.

 

I have an eMac.

[hum-an-ole]

Don't you love your Emac Jarrod? Mine has never done me wrong. They seem to be last of the generation of solid Macs. I've heard several stories of the more recent computers freezing. An Apple?? Freezing?! That's what I said.

She never makes sense. Ignore it.

Yeah, I love my eMac. I want it to come with me to Calgary with me, but it's too friggin heavy to ship out though... so my mom is going to buy me a laptop.

 

My sister also has an iBook. It's AWESOME! I love using it.

 

Apples are the best. I will not go back to Windows.

No. I just felt like making a widget one day though lmao.

[mrs jesus]

anton is that a beer in your hand?

[ToadMan]

Well they are basically javascript, css, and html. This back end is usually pretty simple java. There are a couple of special functions that you can define that tell the widget what to do on hide and on wake.

 

That's really about it. If you don't have a mac though, it's going to be pretty tough to develop a decent widget (since you don't have a sandbox).

[Crusader]

Thus the reason for this post lol.

[ToadMan]

Yeah, but you're not really making any sense... I mean you can't test it, so are you wanting people here to test it for you?

[hum-an-ole]

Dude, this thread is not that long; read the first post! Anton clearly stated that he's looking for testers...lol
