Make lots of stuff bigger and you would have to scroll down. Include some battery data as well
Markus
Rather than scrolling, why not have pages, ala the four Maemo homepages on the device. NewLC has a symbian application called Phone Info that displays on one screen
- IMEI,
- MAC address,
- Bluetooth address,
- Machine id
- Model Name
- Platform
- Firmware version
- Device on for hh:mm:ss
the various drives
On another screen it displays
- CPU Speed
- CPU type
- Total RAM
- Screen Resolution (L x W in pixels)
- Application area size (L x W in pixels)
On yet another screen it displays the available type fonts using a
1234, Lorem ipsum ... text sample to display the font.
Having Conky display it's current information plus whatever is mentioned above that is not in Conky right now would turn it into a one stop shopping device information tool. Healthcheck displays some of the information available in Conky and uses a scrolling interface.
The classic black background with vibrant colors for the information is, to me, very appealing as a look for a system widget. Moving the information to several pages will certainly provide additional space for increasing the displayed size of the information.

By the way, when I built the package, I configured it without support for the weather stuff, primarily because I'm lazy and the dependencies weren't trivially solved. As there's the OmWeather widget already, I figured we could live with that.

I thought I'd request support for a Conky desktop overlay, that would be awesome. Perhaps a interested coder can ask the developer of Live Wallpaper how you make a widget that is beneath icons and above the background.
