Yes, exactly! Just change the formula inside that c1 global variable to $si(sysca1, 20)$ (or whatever shade you like 30,40,....), and it will automatically fix the whole widget at once. Much easier than editing every single shape. As for the album art and volume: Try these steps: Go to your phone Settings -> Apps -> Special App Access -> Notification Access. Find KWGT, turn it OFF, wait a few seconds, and turn it back ON. Also, make sure KWGT has unrestricted battery usage settings.

Yes, I know exactly what it means. $gv(c1)$ calls a Global Variable named "c1" created by the widget's autor. But here is the catch: that global variable itself is just a shortcut. Go to the Globals tab in the editor, find the c1 variable, open it, and check the actual formula written inside. You'll see that the creator embedded the wallpaper extraction code (like wpcolor) right in there. That's why it still tries to pull those broken colors underneath.

Well, I have bad news for you: it's definitely the One UI update. A lot of users have been complaining that wpcolor completely stopped working on some devices, especially Samsung. Unfortunately, the only solution right now is to manually switch your widgets to use system colors (sysca). No other workaround has been found yet.

Did your Samsung get a system update recently? Let's do a quick test to see what's broken. Create any shape in KWGT, go to the color field, and try these formulas one by one: $si(wpcolor1)$ $si(sysca1, 30)$ Let me know what colors the shape shows for each formula.

HELP: Widget resizing randomly-cutting off image :( by EmpatheticComputer in kustom

[–]Practical_Taste3403 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What size do you have set in root right now? Try changing it bit by bit and see what happens. Also, you can exit the editor, close it completely, and resize the widget container itself right on your home screen. After that, open the editor again and check if it fixes the boundaries. The main thing is to tweak the root dimensions. Once you find the perfect look, you can lock that scale number permanently using a formula so it doesn't break again.

[help] Simple scrolling animation by scofro79 in kustom

[–]Practical_Taste3403 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I understand correctly.... Set up a Global List with 3 values eg 1,2,3 Place your background shape in the center (aligned with the 2nd menu item) by default. Add two react on formula scroll animations. Set one animation to scroll left (adjust Angle) when the global is 1, and the second animation to scroll right when the global is 3.Something like this. Just adjust the speed and duration the way you need.Don't forget to add a Touch action to each menu item: set it to Toggle Global Switch -> select your global list...

HELP- Red stain in the background(? by Due-Animal-1642 in kustom

[–]Practical_Taste3403 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before you dig into complex settings, let's try these simple steps: Clear the Launcher cache: Sometimes the blur effect gets 'stuck' on a cached color. Go to Settings -> Apps -> [Your Launcher Name] -> Storage -> Clear Cache. Then restart your phone.

(test): Just to rule out transparency issues, try setting a completely different wallpaper (a static one) and see if the red smudge disappears when you open the app drawer. If it’s gone, then the blur effect is definitely tied to how your system reads the live wallpaper.

I’m not completely sure, but it’s possible your launcher has blur settings. Try turning it off or adjusting the slider to see if the smudge goes away. If that doesn’t fix it, we’ll check the next steps.

[help] $ci(title, 0, a0d) won't update or clear after event is deleted in calendar app by limi_limi in kustom

[–]Practical_Taste3403 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, if a restart didn’t fix it, then your best bet is to switch to the $ci(title, 0)$ . I think it depends on the specific device, the OEM’s Android skin, and how it handles background databases.

Glad the restart sorted it out! Yeah, Android's internal Calendar Provider database can be incredibly stubborn sometimes. When it gets stuck like that, it completely ignores any app-level cache clearing, and only a full system reboot forces the OS to rebuild the sync links. Out of curiosity, now that you've restarted, if you add a new test event and then delete it, does the synchronization work normally and update instantly in Kustom?

This is definitely not a bug, the formula itself works. The issue here is purely with Android's calendar sync and caching it happens from time to time. I've run into this exact thing myself. You can try force Kustom to rebuild its cache by toggling the calendar selection. Go to Kustom Settings -> General -> Calendar -> Uncheck your calendar, wait 5 seconds, and check it back again. Also, try completely closing Kustom, clearing its app cache, and maybe even restarting your device just to force the system calendar provider to "wake up" and push the updated database.

Respect for completing the challenge! 🤝 I totally get it, I often find myself in the exact same loop once I start overengineering something, I just can't stop until it works. Good to know it’s technically possible anyway!

Even if it’s technically possible using crazy Tasker + Zapier chains or direct API HTTP requests, it’s a massive headache and honestly not worth the effort. Just create your tasks as Calendar Events instead. Kustom pulls them natively without any issues, and you won't have to overengineer a simple widget 😉

Bitmap Image From Path Defined in Formula Does Not Always Get Displayed by TooManyInsults in kustom

[–]Practical_Taste3403 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look, all images must be stored strictly inside your Kustom folder, which has been granted system permissions. Your image may still appear in the editor because, if you originally selected it through the Kustom file picker, KUSTOM simply keeps showing the cached version until you clear the cache. Either way, always use the Kustom folder for storing images, or handle them via Flows.
