What's new in this version:

Putting the .5 in Yahoo! Widgets 4.5
So, what exactly is it that we've been cooking up here in Widgetland these last few months? In this version, we've got more detailed security disclosures to give users a better sense of what a Widget can do before it runs, a rearchitected core along with a full W3C-compliant Document Object Model (DOM), as well as support for Flash and HTML. What does all this mean? Basically, we're extending the platform to enable Widget authors to create richer and more powerful desktop Widgets (like ones that run video, w00t!). And at the same time, we're also making it even easier for people to use their existing skills (and maybe even some code) to create a desktop Widget on Yahoo!.

New Widgets to Love
We've also got a few cool new and improved Widgets, like our very own Yahoo! Finance Widget and Widgets from our friends at the NBA and RockYou. You will find these Widgets in our Widget Spotlight on the front page of the new Yahoo! Widget Gallery over the next few weeks. These partners share our vision of delivering compelling experiences to their audiences on the desktop, and we're very happy they've chosen our platform to do so.

Sharing the Widget Platform Love
We're also very pleased to announce integration with several leading Widget creation and distribution platforms. As announced at the Widget Summit a few weeks ago, the thousands of Widgets built using the Netvibes UWA will now be available on your desktop as Yahoo! Widgets from the Netvibes Ecosystem. Additionally, Clearspring is now including the option to add the many web Widgets they power, from partners like NBC Universal and Time, to your desktop as Yahoo! Widgets. And by the end of this year, MuseStorm will be supporting output to Yahoo! Widgets for their partners, like CBS and Universal Music Group, as part of their forthcoming platform release.

What's new in this version:

Widget Dock
- First and foremost is the shiny new Widget Dock. Finally there's a way to manage your Widgets in a neatly organized fashion. This was always an area we knew we needed to work on, and in this release we were able to spend the time and get a really polished UI in place for it (and make it dock to any corner or edge of multiple monitors). Does it do everything we wanted it to? No, but it's pretty darned close. It'll be changed and enhanced as we move forward and get feedback from you, the home viewer. Use that Provide Feedback& link - we really do listen.
- Not only can you manage your Widgets with the Dock, but Widgets can now show you what we call 'vitality', i.e. live info. Basically, it's a mini Widget. So the Weather Widget can show the temperature, etc. in a smaller, more organized form factor. As more Widgets get updated to work on Version 4, you'll see more and more information in the Dock.

Updates and Widget Discovery
- We now support automatic Widget updates. When an update is available for one of your running Widgets, you'll get an indicator in the Dock. Click it and you'll be running the update in seconds. While this magic only exists for our Yahoo!-built Widgets right now, we plan to make similar functionality available to third-party Widget authors as well in the near future.
- If you ever get bored with the Widgets you have on your machine, there's now a much easier way to get new ones - the new Gallery Widget. With it, you can browse the Widget Gallery's 4300+ Widgets and get new ones with one click, all without ever opening a web browser. The Gallery Widget will ship with every copy of Yahoo! Widgets 4.

Improved User Experience
- We've simplified a lot of our interface features based on user feedback and testing. For example, we used to have a series of window levels a Widget could use, but each Window level tied on extra features. In this version, we've broken them out into separate preferences. So now the level of the window is separate from whether the Widget is clickable, for example. It should make a lot more sense now.
- To further simplify things, there's also a new hidden state for Widgets. The hidden state allows the user to run a Widget without displaying its full interface on the screen. Widgets running in hidden mode continue to display live updates (or vitality) in their tile in the Dock. To display the full Widget again, just select the show control on the miniaturized Dock tile or click the tile. This feature replaces the old 'Heads-Up Display Only' window level for Widgets. Just hide a Widget and if you want to see it, bring up the Heads-Up Display mode or click its tile in the dock. It's much more intuitive and straightforward now.

Improved Performance
- Even with all those features packed in there, we've managed to reduce our memory consumption by about 40%. This number is based on what Task Manager shows as 'VM Size' or the Mac (under top) shows as 'RPRIV'. This is real, allocated memory by a process. It's the one true number an application can really make a dent in. I'll post a tome on how measuring memory usage is not as simple as adding up 'Mem Usage' in Task Manager some other time.

A Powerful Flickr Widget
- Another new Widget is our Flickr Widget. Not only will it stream your favorite Flickr photos right to your desktop, the Flickr Widget also has powerful drag-and-drop upload which allows you to do highly customized batch uploads without having to open a browser. You will love browsing pictures in this Widget. I can personally attest that the manner in which it allows you to browse the Interestingness category is just plain awesome. This is by far the most full-featured Widget we've ever created. The Flickr Widget is just one example of what this latest Konfabulator engine can do, as well as the direction we are heading.

Developer Features
- For the Widget developers out there, we've added cool features like SQLite support, canvas support (the old puzzle blog post was done via the canvas feature), submenus, rotation of pretty much anything, and DOM-like traversal. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. If you want the full list of new features, check out our release notes. A lot of what we've added is based on feedback from the current developer base. So by all means, keep posting in the forums.
- And how will you get this new information into your brains? Well, along with the usual reference guide in PDF, we now have online docs for the first time in our history. It's our first cut at it, and we will be adding certain features that you might have come to love about other online docs solutions, but at least you now have it on the web as well as in PDF. Choice is good.

What's new in this version:

General

* Fixed problem where readFile() wouldn't locate a local file in a flat-file widget.
* Fix problem where about boxes were affected by the master opacity.
* Fix Korean localization.
* Be more tolerant in string file whitespace parsing.
* Allow .kon files to access localized resources properly.
* Fix problem where we weren't loading images properly for custom scroll bars in flattened Widgets.

Windows

* Attempt to fix problems where non-English font names with "Regular" in them (localized) didn't work.
* Fix problem where debug window was not remembering its size/location.
* Initialize COM on secondary web request threads so we can use text encoding stuff (which is COM-based).
* Fixed problem which caused Personal radioTuner to crash when opening preferences.
* Filter out all font names that start with @
* Fixed problem on Win2K where preference OK/Cancel buttons were blank.
* We no longer localize our shortcut name. It was leading to multiple shortcuts in the startup folder if you changed languages.
* Make sure to return null as documented from chooseFolder. Also make sure to return forward-slashed paths.

Macintosh

* Fixed problem which caused zipped Widgets to recreate their Widget Data Folder on each run (thus losing any saved data).
* Fixed ugly memory allocator diagnostic message in Converter.
* Fixed several instances in which international characters were handled incorrectly.
* Prevent multiple clicks on gear menu while a dialog is open.
* Fixed a crash when a Widget requested login and the Purple Box was already displayed.
* Fixed problem where UTF-8 file encodings were sometimes misinterpreted.
* Addressed a minor memory leak in animated GIFs.
* Fixed a problem where filesystems.volumes would report random results for volumes that aren't really there (Mac OS X 10.3.9 sometimes continues to report the presence of USB drives which have been ejected). The engine now double-checks (on 10.3.9) to make sure a volume really is there before reporting it.

Widgets

* Added satellite views to Yahoo! Maps Widget.
* Fixed Korean localization of Purple Box (Yahoo! Login) Widget.
