adding widgets is painful
-
Every time I want to add a widget, I cringe at the pain of it. If the widget’s name starts with an A or B its ok, but add “Recent Comments” and its a 5 minute ordeal. I scroll down, grab the widget and then have to jiggle it near the top of the page to get the page to scroll back up so that I can paste it to its proper place. Certainly there must be an easier way? It would be nice if I could just drag it to the right and let go and it would magically appear near the top. Or better yet, why drag it at all? How about a box and you add a check mark for the widgets you want. Sometimes a little “friendly” technology slows you down instead of making your life easier.
Anyone else experience “pain” adding widgets?

Have you tried turning on the accessibility mode? You can just click the add link next to the widget you want.

May be better the accessible mode as default mode. The current default mode is really uncomfortable.

I thing this is browser and/or OS related, because in FF and Safari on Mac, when I grab a widget and move it to the top of the browser window, the browser window scrolls up very quickly, even if I’m coming from the “inactive widgets area clear at the very bottom of the screen.

@Richard,
I agree that this seems to be an issue related to the browser (from questions about this issue posted in these forums, IE browsers in many versions do seem to be troublesome).
But trying not to beat a dead horse, the use of the accessibility mode usually seems to help.
even in the case of whatever OS. ^_^ -
1tess, I followed the directions on your link and added the accessability mode, much better, thanks! :-)
