Next alarm in widgets

[ltguillaume]

1. (Material) Digital clock widget: I think it would be very useful to add a line at the bottom that shows the alarm's title. If there isn't a title, the widget would be exactly as it is now. It could be added as optional if others wouldn't see the use of this like I do.
2. Next alarm widget: I feel that if you add this widget, you already know where the next alarm will be placed on your desktop, so why add the string "Next alarm" at the top at all? It just clutters without adding anything useful. Could perhaps be made optional, though.
   Edit: Ah never mind, I can make this line's text color fully transparent, that'll do.

Hi,

Point 1:

Why does this proposal only concern the Material widget?
It would be inconsistent to be able to display the alarm title on the Material widget but not on the standard widget. 🤔

Furthermore, I would find the layout strange if the alarm title were displayed below, knowing that it is also possible to display cities...

Finally, some users use very long titles for their alarms; should the number of characters be limited? But what would that number be, given that some devices can display more characters than others due to their screen resolution?
Should it therefore be limited to a maximum of 2 lines?

There seem to be a lot of limitations, especially since that is not the primary purpose of this widget.

Improving the Next Alarm widget with the idea from #406 would be more appropriate.

Point 2:

If other users complain about it, I will remove it.

It doesn't, that's why I put "Material" between "(...)".

I wouldn't know why

The title of the alarm

would look strange. I don't see an option to display cities, what do you mean exactly?

Just a single ellipsized line, limited by the horizontal space minus padding? Doesn't seem to be difficult from what I remember about Android layout XML'ing.

Improving the Next Alarm widget with the idea from #406 would be more appropriate.

Why is that related? Showing a list of upcoming alarms, that's a completely different type of widget.

Okay.

You must select cities in the Clock tab.

What I meant was that this widget may not be appropriate for displaying this kind of detail, given that the Next Alarm widget already exists.

But making it optional, as you said, why not...
