Minimalist text is great, so many options and it's not just a time widget.it's battery and date too...

Ohshi I never realized that...but that requires using a custom layout and I haven't the slightest clue how to do that hence why I just use the pre-defined layouts let lol

Default Semi sorta how to on Minimalistic Text

Minimalistic Text:



Where it says Predefined layout, choose Custom and then click on Custom layout.



Once you're in the Custom layout, you can drag those boxes in the top down to the dumpster.



Now the 3 icons that are to the right of the layout on top are from top to bottom :

Add Type > Which shows at the Bottom (Date, Battery, Clock, Weather, Misc.)
Add Row > Allows you to add another row (example Top row Clock, Bottom row Date)
Delete Row > Allows you to delete a row.

So, whatever type you choose, there are a lot of options. You just drag those boxes up to the top of row.

In the 1st screenshot under Custom layout is Text Style, you can play with those to set the different text styles and at the bottom you can preview your Widget.

Hope this helps a little bit!
