@No!No!No!Yes! I have setup widgets on my desktop to update at specific intervals of time.The problem is, that I noticed they are updating even when the phone is locked! I do not want widgets to be updating their content while the device is locked & its obvious I am not looking at them This ought to be having some impact on battery life right? This is probably exhibited by all types of widgets so it may be a requirement (or a feature?) of hildon so i will not claim this to be a bug, but can you please consider this as a feature request and provide an option to toggle content updating when device is locked. If this is not possible can somebody please give me the code for checking if device is locked.I will put this at the start of my script and have it exit accordingly.
