Hi guys,
Is it possible to resize a widget?
I have weather pro and the widget size is 4x2 or 4x3 but I like it more when it's 5x2 or 5x3. I am on the rayglobe 3.2 Rom.
Thanks.

Depends on the launcher you're using.
I know Go Launcher, Nova and Apex supports it.
I don't know which launcher your rom is using, but you can try holding your finger on a widget (like if you wanted to move it, but don't move, just hold, release). Most launchers that support rezising has a menu that pops up with an option to do it there.

Pretty much I'm asking. Is there a launcher that is like adw and launcher pro but is compatible with sense widgets.
I've been looking but not finding.

There isn't one. Sense, including the widgets, is proprietary to HTC and they are very quick to sue when it comes to their property. There are some skins available that make use of the google apps, calendar and music, that work well with LauncherPro. I've used Pure Music Widget by francois Deslanders and it has a nice transparent 4x4 widget.
Sad face...
Hmm I see the issue. No one would wanna do that work for free. Thx for quick response.

I've seen and tried some of the things you pointed out. But I guess I'm really just trying to make use of my sense rom. I'm using launcher pro and I love it but not being able to you the weather widget has always bugged me.

Beautiful Widgets has almost the exact same weather/clock widget as HTC, plus hundred of others to choose from. Only problem I ever had with it is it gets my location wrong sometimes.
Thx I've looked into beautiful widgets but I'm talking about the full screen weather widget the one with the forcast.
The reason I was asking was mainly because of the resizing of widgets in these launchers.

GO Weather maybe?

Yeah it only has a 4x1 weather widget which kind of sucks. Launcher Pro does allow resizing but it just keeps the same 4x1 widget and enlarges it to about 4x2 and it doesn't look good.
Cool so I just got done trying out the go weather app. Its not bad but I only really like it because of the live wallpaper.
But for that same reason It's not what I'm looking for. I do appreciate the idea. Oh well still looking.
I guess what I'm really looking for is that sense 4x4 forcast widget on one of my launcher pro screens. (I know not possible lol)

Hopefully they release their Sense SDK soon like they said they would.
Palmary Weather Pro is very close. I think it's a buck or 2 in the market. I love it.

Fancy Widgets from Android Market.
Also install LauncherPro and change number of columns to 4 to centre the widget.

Beautiful Widgets is also great and it gives you a wide assortment of clock and weather skins along with other toggle widgets.

I used to be a beautiful widgets user for the customization, but now I find that fancy widgets has more customization, better skin quality and all around better function that BW. (I own both)
Thank you everybody

Good luck then.
Fancy Widgets is the best Sense Clock widget I have found in 2 months of looking.
I'll wait until someone makes a. Thank you
I find that very few apps/widgets that I have offer a 5x1 or more size.
I can only name HD Widgets as one. Which ones d'you have installed on your Note?
Can anyone recommend a good weather/forecast widget with tablet size available?
I find that using ADW Launcher Ex's widget/icon resizing helps but sometimes makes poor resolution or such more noticeable. Unfortunate. Also, resizing doesn't offer more information to be included. So native support is still the most useful!

Android Pro Widgets and Jorte both have nice 5x5 widgets.
No luck yet for weather, though...
Give "3D Flip Clock and World Weather" a try. I've been using it since I got my note.
I use beautiful widgets and the weather widget on there is pretty nice.

I'm digging 'Snowstorm Weather' although it's only 4x1 - I am using Go Launcher so just resize it to 5x1 and it still looks great.
I am using " beautiful widgets ", works very well with Note. See my screen shot.

I'm using beautiful widgets as well, it has a 5x2 superclock widget.
@skyhew, what skin are you using and which widget gives you the controls on the screen?
Edit nevermind Skyhew. I think you are using HD widgets and I found the settings for those
I use 3D Flip Clock and World Weather. 5x2

Does anyone have the 5x6 launcher for tis S4 ???
Check out Nova Launcher - it will do 5x6 and much more.......
Most 3rd party launchers allow custom grid sizes in both the home screen and app drawer. But I agree, a version of TW which increases the grid size in the homescreen would be nice. It would effect widgets though, as there would be no resize option.

Nova allows resizing of widgets - it's a really good, snappy launcher that isn't a battery hog.

Again, the majority of 3rd party launchers allow widget resizing. The problem with a hacked version of TW to allow changes in homescreen gridsize is that it there is no widget resize option natively, which will cause widgets to sit off center or simply look wrong.

+1 for me. Similar to this mod for S3: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1848582.
Love to fit more icons in 5" screen. Some apps provide widgets in different sizes (1x1, 2x1, 3x1, etc).
