Below that, you'll find a bunch of lines similar to each other, each beginning with Courier New. Find the line that says, (should be about line 40). Now, open (from the same folder) Stickies.html in an HTML editor (TextWrangler works). Then, change it so it looks like this: fontArray = 8 Save and close this file.
You want to copy the last one of those (American Typewriter), and paste it back below itself. You'll see below that line a bunch of lines similar to each other, saying something like fontArray = 1. Now, use the editor to find the line var fontArray = new Array (should be around line 407). In the new window that appears, right-click on the Stickies.js file and open it with your favorite JavaScript editor (if you don't have one, TextWrangler is great and free). Now, go to the myStickies.wdgt version you copied and right-click it. Copy it to ~/Library/Widgets and name it myStickies (or something else). Here's how:įirst, go to /Library/Widgets and find the Stickies one.
This is possible, because widgets are HTML, CSS, and JavaScript based.
