A slim top bar: date and time centered, weather, wifi, volume and battery at the right
- Date and time centered, weather and system status right, and the bar clicks through to the desktop
- Live weather for a city you choose, in Celsius or Fahrenheit
- Wifi, volume, and battery readouts that each hide when there is nothing to show, and a volume slider flyout
- Round the bottom, the top, or every corner, so the bar docks to either screen edge or floats free
- Pick a 12 or 24 hour clock, bar heights, which icons show, a logo or weather left side, and the panel style



About this widget
A thin bar for the edge of the screen, with the date and time held dead-center and weather plus system status pushed to the right. Weather covers a city you set, next to wifi strength, volume, and battery; each segment hides itself when its source has nothing to report (no adapter, no battery, or turned off). Clicking the volume icon opens a small slider flyout, while the rest of the bar lets clicks fall through to the desktop behind it.
Rounded corners decide which edge it belongs to: keep the curve at the bottom to sit flush with the top of the screen, at the top to sit flush with the bottom, or round every corner for a bar that floats free.
You can set the weather city, Celsius or Fahrenheit, the refresh interval, a 12 or 24 hour clock, one of three bar heights, which corners stay rounded, which status icons appear, what the left side shows (the logo, the weather, or nothing), and the panel background style.
