It would be nice if the “add widget” list had a way to preview widgets, and also if it showed a more complete description.

I’ll use the (linked) app/widget set, “DIGI Clock Widget” as an illustrative example.

Only one of the widgets (the 4×1) has a view showing seconds, which is what I want. With Trebuchet (Cyanogenmod) as well as Touchwiz (Samsung) I can see previews, so it’s easy to find the widget I want.

With LL I had to try installing all the different widgets in order to find the one I wanted, as the LL “add widget” list descriptions did not show the full descriptions including dimensions, and no preview was shown either.
