1. Are widgets modified or touched in any way when converted by Amnesty Singles?

2. Do all Dashboard widgets work with Amnesty Singles?

3. How is Amnesty Singles different from Dashboard's "dev mode"?

1. Are widgets modified or touched in any way when loaded by Amnesty Singles?

Widget files (.wdgt bundles) are read and parsed by Amnesty Singles, but absolutely no files are modified within. If you choose to build a widget application with a bundled widget, a copy of the widget will be created inside the widget application package, but it will not be modified.

2. Do all Dashboard widgets work with Amnesty Singles?

On Tiger, all Dashboard widgets should work with Amnesty Singles. On Panther, all Dashboard widgets that don't require specific technologies on Tiger should work in Amnesty Singles. If you find a widget that doesn't run correctly and hasn't been entered into our Known Issues list, then please let us know about it.

3. How is Amnesty Singles different from Dashboard's "dev mode"?

The "dev mode" is simply a trick to move Dashboard's widgets onto the desktop, where they remain floating over all your windows. You still have to go to the Dashboard to open and close new widgets. Widget applications that have been created by Amnesty Singles are completely standard and don't interact with Dashboard at all. Ths means widget applications appear in your Dock and live on your desktop just like Apple Mail or TextEdit. You can Quit or Hide them just like regular apps. Best of all, widget applications built by Amnesty Singles include a Widget menu where you can set the window level to floating, standard or desktop.
