load widget without garmin connect

... I checked! I actually see it as an APP!!! How do I "transform" it into a widget?
On my old 1030 it was seen as a widget ...

If the manifest says "widget" all you have to do is add a glance view.  It will then show up in both places.

In your AppBase, you need something like

	(:glance)
	function getGlanceView() {
        return [ new WUWGView() ];
    }	

With what you want to see in the view returned

See https://developer.garmin.com/connect-iq/core-topics/glances/

(:glance)
function getGlanceView() {
return [ new WUWGView() ];
}

... I'm trying to understand the "glance" argument ... but it's not clear to me ... what is WUWGView() ?

The (:glance) annotation is so it's available for glances, and WUWGView is the view class I wrote to display the glance

Here's a screen shot of what I see when I start that app in the sim for the 1040.  What you see is done by my glance view.

if I tap on the glance the widget opens in full screen mode.

Here's another one of my apps you can try on your 1040 to see how it looks.

You need to get your own (free) APIKEY from the OWM site.

...thanks a lot...I'll do some tests...

Here's an ultra simple glance view I use in another widget.  All it does is display the app name.

using Toybox.Graphics as Gfx;
using Toybox.WatchUi as Ui;

(:glance)
class PiGdGView extends Ui.GlanceView
{
    var appname="";

    function initialize() {
        GlanceView.initialize();
        appname=Ui.loadResource(Rez.Strings.AppName);
    }   
    
    function onUpdate(dc) {
		dc.setColor(Gfx.COLOR_WHITE,Gfx.COLOR_TRANSPARENT);
		dc.drawText(0, dc.getHeight()/2, Gfx.FONT_GLANCE,appname, Gfx.TEXT_JUSTIFY_LEFT|Gfx.TEXT_JUSTIFY_VCENTER);
    } 
}
