The UI can be tweaked for maximum efficiency & bigger widgets

Suggestion for Here and now

The current UI is not the best, and can be improved a lot.

1. The number counter - 1/2 - at the top of the widget can be moved in the space between the left & right arrows at the bottom. That is not only the proper position for the number counter, but would also free up some space.

2. For the weather widget, the arrows can be placed a little lower than they currently are.

Once these two tweaks are implemented, the size of the widget can be increased. Eventhough its cool, its a bit cramped up right now.

Now you are talking my language... I was hoping for a comment like this and I totally agree. This is definitely something to improve and it seems that we can maximize the size with some simple adjustments much like you suggested. Absolutely one of the top items for the next release. Thanks!

Nice work redreky. Nice to see you actively going through the forum and also agreeing with the user suggestions.
I am sure the widget can be tweaked for a much better presentation than the current way.

yes to continue try using the auto rotate for the n85 on the weather page, a slight amount of the second page will be revealed.

Update: for get i mentioned it. Just realized its been said in the forum.
