Dear google guys, the widget framework (or the Home app) has a pretty bad bug: - install ApiDemo - long press screen/widget/ApiDemo - *CHANGE ORIENTATION* - then without changing orientation back, click ok to create the widget
the widget will not show up, did some debugging it looks like the widget is added to the widget service but it's just not shown on the Home screen, so if a widget has a config activity and the user happens to change orientation during widget config time (very common if widget has text boxes), the widget will become a garbage that just take up resources until user uninstall the widget app. even worse, if the widget does heavy background service to update, it will be wasting time updating a widget that is not visible Does anyone know a work around? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
