    BRYAN GOLDSTEIN  Due to the recent switch to universal binary there are still a few bugs I will need to Iron out this version fixes a bit of them but there are many more. If you find a bug and would like to help tell me about it, bryan@widgetfactor.com. I apologize for the inconvenience and hope that I can address all the bugs .

    Bugs I know of:

    - When you open a widget from in wcode it doesn't open right to get around it you can close wcode and open the widget with wcode from finder.

    -Problems with having multiple documents open

    JON  it'll get you started, but you still need to do coding and graphics work, so it doesn't make it much easier.

    more importantly, i didn't see the plugin creator/manager anywhere. either it doesn't exist or it's not intuitive, and there is no help or directions.

    my 2ยข, it's not worth more than $5.

    ANONYMOUS  It's full of features, but a lil' on the expensive side.. It makes the widget making process 100% less painful.
