Move it to where-ever you want on your screen and it's there, running, fully functional, without the rest of Dashboard around!You'll notice that it lives above everything else on your screen (at least, I don't know how to push it behind other app windows) so I think you'll have the best results with small widgets that can be tucked into a corner or lined up neatly on an edge.To move the widget back into the Dashboard world, reverse the trick: begin dragging the widget, then, while still keeping the mouse button down, press f12 or F4, then let go of the mouse button. While you're still dragging it around (that's critical: keep that mouse button down!) press f12 or F4 again.Poof! Your Dashboard vanishes, but the widget's still visible. Open the terminal and type in the following, exactly as you see here:defaults write devmode YESYou'll get another regular system prompt within Terminal if it works, there's no other output to the defaults program.Now log out of your account by choosing Apple -> Log Out, and log in again (You need to restart Dashboard).Ready for the fun now? Press f12 or F4 to bring Dashboard up, then drag one of your Dashboard widgets around. ![]()
