Widget Overlap Layers #351

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
As I was looking for a way to overlap widgets, EX solves this, however of my 
two widgets each will swap which one is on top periodically, defeating the 
purpose I had set for them. This could be happening when the launcher redraws 
the desktop, and selecting the different widgets seems to bring them back up to 
the top layer.
I want the widget with a background behind another widget with only text, and 
not the other way around. I am referring to two Minimalistic Text widgets 
specifically. 
If there could be a way to keep the two widgets' layers static, or an option to 
set which one is above, that would be fantastic.

Seconded. From testing I guess ADW puts widgets in load order, with he first 
loaded on top. I'm using Desktop Visualizer to put background images behind my 
widgets and shortcuts and when the launcher reloads all widgets after the "D" 
in the alphabet get loaded behind the Desktop Visualizer widgets.

My attempts to rename Desktop Visualizer to "ZZ Desktop Visualizer" (using APK 
Manager 4.9) just made the app crash.

Overlapping widgets was the main reason I was considering switching to ADW EX, 
but this kind of ruins it. Is it still buggy like this? Seems like ADW should 
either give you an option to change the vertical order of widgets; or just keep 
them in the order you placed them, rather than the order in which they load.
