Kudos to you for an incredibly powerful platform!

I’m about a week into fumbling around in LL, and I see TONS of potential here, but I have to admit, editing (at least for now) feels very awkward and counterintuitive.

With that said, given the abilities of the platform, I’m totally willing to deal with the large learning curve, in order to ‘grow’ into being able to take advantage of LL’s abilities.

One question for the community, at this point:

I’m using a Kustom (1×1) widget (battery monitor) as an app drawer button. I’ve incorporated a background square with rounded corners, so it looks like any other icon, but gives real-time battery information (Bottom-Center in screenshot).

Is there a way to enable ‘reflection’ on this widget, like on an icon? Maybe I’m approaching this the wrong way, but reflection settings don’t seem to be available.

Thanks!

  1. Sorry, no reflection for widgets. I think this might be because widgets are redrawn often, and computing the reflection is rather heavy (I’m not sure though).

    By the way – Lightning has the ability for you to get rid of widgets completely (use scripts, custom views and Bindings instead). This will increase your battery life.

    Thanks, brother. That makes sense.

    I’m still a bit overwhelmed by LL (as my REALLY rough screenshot, no doubt, shows)…but I’ll get there.

    I truly appreciate the suggestion.

    That widget was borrowed from a KLWP preset I designed and reformatted as a KWGT widget, as an interim solution, while I figure out the LL environment. 😮

    also, if you want to see some more action from other users, join the beta community. It is far more active, especially when it comes to scripts.

    WHERE is the beta community?

    I also saw reference to a ‘closed’ community. If this exists, how can I join or apply?

    Good place for it! Sorry to overlook the obvious, and thanks.
