      1 Open the Widgets panel by clicking the Widgets icon on the taskbar.

      2 You can change the size of widget. Select the See Options menu located in the upper right corner of the widget. You can choose from Small, Medium, or Large. In Figure 2-21, all the widgets are set to Small.

      3 To change the size of the widget, just select the size you want from the See Options menu. Widgets do not have to be same size. For example, in Figure 2-22, the Weather widget is set to Large and the Traffic widget is set to Medium. The other widgets are set to Small. Larger widgets typically display more information. Consider making your most important widgets larger and keep the less important widgets smaller.

      4 You can also customize the data you see on each widget. The customization options vary based on the widget and what the widget does. For example, add the Traffic widget to your widgets (if it’s not already added). Then select See Options and choose Customize Widget, as shown in Figure 2-23.

      5 On the customization window, you can specify a location, such as a city and state, or you can choose to detect your location, shown in Figure 2-24. The second option is helpful if you travel frequently; that way, the widget is always accurate wherever you’re located. Make your selection and choose Save.
