I just had to recreate the same widget multiple times.... =(

Would be awesome if you can create design templates. (just like being able to create scripts)

Function is already there ... see following post for exporting Instance Settings:

Great work!

I believe you are right, but since the beginning I did not find much feedback and interest about QBW ... proof is still no karma and feedback in QA testing queue

I'm trying to keep this main thread in order and see if Wiki is really needed...

Thank you. Now I can at least export the settings.
But would be awesome if it was integrated into the widget's settings screen. :)

IMO, QBW is a far more superior widget the the DCEW.
All the things DCEW lacks, you've added into QBW.
Amazing amount of work. Awesome set of instructions.
I'm no longer using DCEW as this is like DCEW version 3.0 and some. lol :p

btw, I cannot get output to word wrap within the snippet mode.
Is this possible for big text outputs? (so output doesn't go outside of the box)

Sorry ... could you please explain what you'd like to do? I'm not sure I understand your request.

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget: Customizable and flexible monitoring tool.
 
Hi all.
I have done a script to one of those widgets, but it is freezing my device, hildon desktop stop works, and other strange things.
I've tried to uninstall it, but when re-install, the configurations are there too.
I cand access the configuration to modifiy the script, phone hangs up.
I can acess the x-terminal and filesystem over ssh.
So..what file and where is it, that stores the script code so i can 'edit' it other way then the default one ?
Or, anyway to remove\uninstall with the defenitions too ..

help please
