Wallpaper issue - Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers

Why is my wallpaper 90% of the times half cropped/cut on the right side? I only get it by chance after several attempts to display correctly.

A wild guess:
Maybe one of these widget does force this? As it aligns very nice with the agenda template.
BTW, what kind of widgets do you use here?

Larger photo frame widget?

Does anyone know of a larger photo frame widget available? The stock photo frame is ok for most things but sometimes I want a larger one since I don't have all that many shortcuts on my home screen. I haven't found any yet and searching for photo or widget throws up too many results to sort through without a lot of effort. If there isn't one perhaps someone can tell me how to change the default widget to cover more than the 2x2 space it does currently.
I've also been searching/waiting for such a widget.
I've seen it in Rodriguez stiles screens
I have asked numerous times and have yet got a response
use ADW as your launcher, it will resize any widget.
*i'm at work and can't test whether or not it will fill the space you expand with the picture. it's worth a try, and if you weren't using ADW, you should be. =P
there was one called photoframe deluxe. however it seems the dev has stopped work on it and has removed it from the market. it was a paid for app but wasnt too bad. be good if someone could do something similar. the benefit of it was that it didnt ask you to resize the photos. it kept them original size and shrank them to fit if need be.
What about this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=784791&highlight=frameme
The widget is only 2x2 but you get full screen when you click it.
Also like jamesd86 said if you are using adw as your launcher you can resize it to anything you want.

live wallpaper on lockscreen

my question is...
i am pretty sure that gnote can have two different live wallpapers,
one on lockscreen and the other on homescreen.
with LA4 (DBT) i think i was able to assign two different live wallpapers. (wp clock on lockscreen/other picture on homescreen).
then, i haven't really paid attention to it lately, but i figured since the recent OTA upgrade to LB1, if i try to assign wp clock on lockscreen, homescreen wallpaper also automatically changes to wp clock. when i change homescreen, Lockscreen goes along with it.
i can put 2 different jpeg file but apparently no two live-wallpapers..
does anyone know the reason and/or solution to this ?

if you want you can try using WidgetLocker. Aside from the possibility of using a live wallpaper on the lockscreen, it also allows you to put widgets on the lockscreen. HTH

I actually tried them long time ago.. i did not like them cuz it caused so many bugs at that time..
Im sure it's gotten better since then but i prefer original lock screen.
thanks a lot anyways!
I'm using Multipicture Live Wallpaper right now, and I have no problem configuring two different sets.

Wallpapers APK + Workout

I know a lot of us are irked by the widget addition of the watch styler to Nova because it doesn't cover the whole screen. One suggestions was to use the same color background, which would work nice. I wanted to see if anybody had an APK that had all of those exact colors?
Second, does anybody workout with their Gear? When I lift (or bike), I tend to sweat quite a bit, which worries me. I often have to wear long sleeves to put the Gear over my sleeve so it doesn't get any of the sweat. Is there reason to worry if the sweat comes in contact?
Anyone?

there were already threads about wallpaper and working out...
i use pure black wallpaper so i can't help you with it.
as for working out, i wear my gear and it works just fine.
I use Nova Launcher with a live wallpaper clock, that way the whole screen is the clock, and I have immediate access to all the other widgets and shortcuts on my second home screen.

[Q] Clouds floating above home screen after unlock - what are they?

Picture attached
I'm running Gummy's AOSP nightlies (wonderful rom) and after I unlock (knock), I have clouds floating above all the other layers. They appear for 3-4 seconds and then disappear on their own OR I have to touch I have to touch the screen to get rid of them before I can interact with the 'desktop'.
I can't figure out for the life of me what the heck is controlling this or how to turn it off. It's on any static or live wallpaper, or theme I try and even across home apps (I use Nova Prime, but it happens on Google Now and Trebuchet).
I removed all weather apps and it still happens. I've got tons of other apps, but I'm hoping someone knows what this is before I start from scratch and build up.
Anyone know what this annoying cloud is? I swear I've searched for days and can't find a mention of it.

By chance do you have Beautiful Widgets? There is an unlock animation option in it that reflects the current weather.

Wallpaper Set Issue

Some of you may be familiar with my typical home screen layout and custom wallpapers that I make on my PC. Well, I'm now experiencing issues with applying wallpapers to my home screen. Everything is slightly off, and not aligned properly. It appears that the phone is "zooming in" the wallpaper as it sets. Like, I'll have a border separating the notification bar area and my home screen but when applying the wallpaper that border is moved further up into the notification area. Like I said, the wallpaper seems to be "zooming in" as I set the wallpaper to my home screen.
I'm using Nova Launcher Prime. 12x12 grid. No dock.
I tried using Apex Launcher and ran into the exact same issue.
I've restarted the launcher. Restarted the phone. Used different photo apps to apply the wallpaper to the home screen. Nothing has fixed this. I'm not sure what else to try. If anyone here has any idea on why wallpapers are distorted (zoomed in a bit) as I apply them to my home screen, please help. Thanks!
ETA: Added two screen shots with a specific wallpaper that I found online to help show you what I'm talking about. When I see the preview of what setting the wallpaper will look like, it doesn't apply that way after setting the wallpaper.
Sweet, baby Jesus! I found the solution!
Please let this be a PSA for everyone who may run into this issue. The culprit was that stupid "Motion Effect" option while using the One UI launcher. You have to make sure when switching back to it from a third party launcher like Nova that you choose the "always" option so that it's your default launcher (stock launcher). Then when you do that and choose to apply a wallpaper, you'll see the "Motion Effect" option right under the image. Uncheck that stupid thing and your wallpapers will not longer "zoom in" like they did before.
Now, everything is lined up as it should!
