How to rearrange your dashboard

Edit Mode active, widgets wiggling mid-drag

Every widget on the dashboard is independent: it can sit anywhere, and nothing about its position is fixed. Edit Mode is the one state that lets you touch that arrangement.

Entering Edit Mode

Press E, or click the edit button in the dock at the bottom of the screen. Every widget starts to wiggle, an iOS-style cue that it can now be picked up.

  1. 1Press E (or the dock's edit button) to enter Edit Mode.
  2. 2Drag any widget by its body to move it elsewhere on the grid.
  3. 3Click the X on a widget to remove it. It stays recoverable from a toast's Undo button for a few seconds before it's actually gone.
  4. 4Press E again when the layout looks right. The wiggle stops and positions lock in.

Resizing a widget

This is the one place Edit Mode surprises people: there's no corner handle to drag, resizing isn't free-form. Widgets that support more than one size, Stocks, Sports, Clock, Calendar, Agenda, Job Tracker, and Entertainment among them, offer a Small, Medium, or Large option inside that widget's own settings, opened from its settings icon. A stock chart and a to-do list need different things at each size, so the choice lives with the widget, not the grid. Widgets without a size option, like Prayer or Tab Audio, only come in one size.

Smart Layout

Move to a different monitor, resize the browser window, or plug into a projector, and Weft notices. Once the screen width shifts by more than roughly 150 pixels, a prompt offers to re-optimize the layout for the new width. If the result isn't what you wanted, there's an undo button right there in the same prompt.

Honest limits

Resizing is opt-in per widget, not universal, and even where it exists it snaps to that widget's fixed presets rather than any pixel size you want. Layouts are saved locally to this browser. If Google Drive backup is turned on, it can restore your layout on another device, but there's no live sync between two browsers open at once.

The rest of it

Edit Mode only ever moves, resizes, or removes what's already on the dashboard. Adding something new is a separate flow, covered in its own guide.
