Description

With some widgets (here, the issue was reproduced with Blokada's widget), it can be very difficult if not impossible to get the widget in the mode where user can move it or get the menu to remove it.
I couldn't reproduce it with other widgets I tried, but it's specific to OpenLauncher: couldn't reproduce it either with the same widget with Pixel's native Launcher.

Instead of getting to move the widget, or getting its menu, OpenLauncher enter in its global edit mode, as visible in this screenshot:

Problem also occurs with Weather widgets (/e/ os). But not music player widget. The only way I found to get rid of the weather widgets was to remove the whole page

Closing in favor of the Meta issue for Widgets #645 . Please have all discussion at that issue, including crashes, feature requests and more. I also lock this issue as there is nobody that wants to continue to reply on ~100+ mostly duplicate issues.

Currently nobody is working on OpenLauncher Widgets code, so why YOU who reads this message, not steps up? 😉
