Hi Alberto The consensus appears to favour abandoning backward compatibility -- especially as the functionality of several of the widgets have to some extent been duplicated with action widgets in the core.
I think I shall update the widgets 'as is' to be compatible with version 5.1.x -- then, as deficiencies in the functionality of action widgets become apparent, I can modify them accordingly to cover any needed functionality. There is always more than one way to skin a cat :-) regards On Tuesday, November 4, 2014 12:30:38 PM UTC+2, Alberto Molina wrote: > > Hi Danielo and Matabele, > > I've been out of TW for the last weeks because I had no time.
