This tutorial walks you through using Dashcode to create a Dashboard widget.
Completing this tutorial is a quick and easy way to get started building Dashboard widgets in Dashcode. The remainder of the document delves more deeply into the Dashcode development environment, describing how it supports both widget and web application development. In this tutorial, you build a Dashboard widget that counts down to your birthday, similar to the widget shown in Figure To start, double-click the Dashcode icon to open it.
Templates are handy starting points for creating common types of widgets. To make the Birthday widget, this tutorial uses the Countdown template. Select its icon and click Choose. A project window opens with a new widget based on the Countdown template, as shown in Figure At the bottom of the navigator in Figure you can see the Workflow Steps list, which guides you through the widget development process. Each step is a milestone in creating a widget, telling you what to do and where to do it. When you complete a step, mark it as done and move on to the next step.
Set the Target Date. The Countdown template gives you a Dashboard widget with all the elements and code needed to count down to an event. All you need to do is tell the widget the target date. To set the target date, select Widget Attributes in the navigator. The canvas is replaced by the widget attributes pane, in which you specify important values that your widget needs.
In the Properties section of the widget attributes pane, choose Date and Time in the Target Kind pop-up menu and enter the date of your next birthday, as shown in Figure Your new Dashboard widget is already fully functional. Dashcode can run a widget without opening it in Dashboard, making it a handy place to test your widget and fix any problems you encounter. After the widget loads, it starts counting down towards your next birthday.
Now is a good time to save your widget project. Give your project a name and select a location to save it in. Your widget is saved in a widget project that encapsulates the widget and information Dashcode needs to create the widget for you. Select the widget item in the navigator it should display the name you gave it when you saved the project.
The widget attributes pane is replaced with the canvas. Click the color well and choose a new color in the Colors window that appears. Try different fill styles until you find a combination that you like. If you want to try changing other effects, such as the glass appearance, click the Effects tab to reveal these values, as shown in Figure Your iPhoto library is available from the Library window.
Find a photo and drag it to your widget on the canvas. Resize it by dragging any of the resize handles on the photo.
Now that you have a personalized Dashboard widget that counts down to your birthday, add a button that, when clicked, shows the Apple Store so your friends and family can buy you a birthday present! To add a button to your widget, use a button part. You can use the search field at the bottom of the window to help you find a particular part or type of part.

The quickest way to adjust the Dock's size is to click and hold your cursor on the bars between Stacks and your apps. Move the mouse up or down. Keep an update of your disk space on the Desktop. Is there an app, file or folder you use regularly?
