I tried to add Babelfish to the sidebar of my blog with the width on display settings changed to 220px instead of 320px, but Babelfish nevertheless ended up loading at 320px width, jutting out over the sidebar. Harrumph.
ReplyDeleteI have also had trouble changing the scale of the gadgets. I tried to include several games on my webpage, but could not make the box they appeared in large enough, scroll bars kept coming up making the games unplayable. I tried changing the dimensions in the google gadget editor and the .xml itself, no dice.
