Now that I have a laptop I have found using activities + selected programs to be a great way of working.
However there are times when it's useful to jump out of an activity to check on a specific widget rather than have to add it to every activity - and the perfect place for this is the dashboard. The dashboard is marked to use it's own set of widgets in System settings.
However it appears it is still not possible to put widgets on the dashboard. I found a blog by Aaron Siego which explained how to do this by linking the dashboard to an activity of it's own. The article is some years old so I followed as best I could but without success.
Am I missing something glaringly obvious or is this option still not available.
Thanks
