Widgets are narrower than app icons

[GRA0007]

Describe the bug

In the stock pixel launcher app, I have the grid size set to 5x5, and I have a 1x1 widget built with KWGT to replicate an app icon. The same widget on Lawnchair 14 (beta 3) is too narrow and cannot display the whole icon at the same size as other icons without being clipped.

Steps to reproduce

1. Set your grid size to 5x5
2. Place any widget
3. Notice that it appears narrower on Lawnchair vs the stock pixel launcher
4. Use a ruler and notice that the app icons are actually bigger than the width of a 1x1 widget

Expected behavior

The width of the widgets placed in Lawnchair should match the stock pixel launcher. Or, there should be an option to customise the gap size/padding between and around widgets on the home screen.

Bit off track. What's the app name for this widget? Thanks.

[GRA0007]

As I mentioned above the app I'm using in my example is KWGT, however it's not an issue with just that app, the problem is that all widgets have too much spacing in between them horizontally.

I wrote off track because I want that widget 😃 Can you share the kwgt widget?

[GRA0007]

Ah I see, yes I can, it's for my bank Up and relies on a variable that's sent from Tasker, but feel free to take a look/modify it.

I believe I'm seeing the same widget-sizing problem on my Pixel 3a running Android 12 for two different widgets:

• Google Clock: Digital, 3x2 (resized to 3x1)
• WeatherCAN: 2x1 (not resized)

These both looked good prior to the 14 beta 3 update.

After the update, the digital clock display in the Clock widget had its font size greatly reduced. Obviously the widget detected the smaller space available but has only a few discrete font sizes to choose from.

The WeatherCAN widget used to show a timestamp on a single line along its bottom, beneath the larger current temperature reading. Now it's behind the temperature because the smaller available space has caused it to wrap onto two lines.
