When I first got my SGS, I could change the size of the widgets.For example,Sky News I could increase the size,and get the photo that went with the top story.
Now it is a fixed size.
How do I change this?

Another thing.Im running Launcer Pro.Before, I could use scrollable widgets.Now they do not scroll, and yes I have enabled it in Preferences.

I could be wrong here but I thought the widget size is dependant on the widget itself having different sizes/orientation. I don't have the SKY News Widget but I'm guessing if you remove the sky news widget and re-add it, you may be able to choose from multiple Sky News Widgets that are different sizes?

Yeah, I have a few widgets and all the different sizes are listed.
But definitely worked with SkyNews and YouTube widgets.Dont know if it was official, it was like two boxes on screen,one for columns ,one for rows with the +/- keys above/below.

Have you try re-add or reinstall the widget?

Sussed it.I was using ADW Launcher at time.Just installed it and it does let you change the size of any widget
