Configure Your Widgets

Configure Your Widgets

Every widget in UniDeck is designed to be flexible, not only in how it looks, but also in how it behaves. Whether you’re setting up a Focus Timer or an Advanced Table, you can fine-tune each widget to better suit your personal workflow.

This guide shows you how to use the right-click context menu and the configuration modals available in select widgets.

Right-Click Context Menu

Right-clicking on any widget opens a context menu, which may include up to three sections depending on the widget’s features.

Context Menu Example from Time Widget

1. Widget-Specific Settings (🟩 Top Section)

Used for widgets that support filters, visual and sound customization, and etc.

• Example: In the Clock widget, you can choose to “Show Seconds” or switch between display types like "Simple", "Scrolling", or "Binary".

• Some widgets may let you choose data views, styles, or filtering preferences here.

2. Size & Configure (🟥 Middle Section)

Resize or customize the behavior of your widget:

• Size: Choose from preset grid sizes such as 1x1, 2x1, or 2x2 depending on how much screen space you want to dedicate.

• Configure: Launches a detailed configuration modal (if available) where you can fine-tune settings.

3. Misc Options (🩷 Bottom Section)

Additional actions include:

• Learn More: Opens help or documentation about this widget

• Delete: Remove the widget from your dashboard

Not all widgets have all three sections, simpler widgets may only offer size and delete options.

Configuration Modals

Widgets with more advanced functionality offer a dedicated Configuration modal for deeper customization. These appear when selecting “Configure” from the context menu.

Time Widget Configuration Example

The Time widget lets you:

• Choose a Display Style (Simple / Scrolling / Binary)

• Select a Timezone for that clock (great for remote teams!)

This makes it easy to keep multiple clocks in different styles and zones on one dashboard.

📄 Advanced Table Widget Configuration Example

The Advanced Table widget offers an intuitive table editor to what you're used to from tools like Google Sheets and MS Excel integrated within your UniDeck dashboard for showcasing custom structured data.

This is one of our most advanced widgets so don't worry about it at this point. This is only a showcase here.

• Table view

• Column data formatting

• Column view and look customization

• Automatic and manual data array selection from response

Tips

• Use configuration to adapt widgets to your routine, not the other way around.

• Want different versions of the same widget? You can duplicate and configure each one independently.

• Resize widgets after configuring them to make your layout cleaner and more useful.
