This is a complete hack. When I started with this, I knew nothing about python, or widgets, or how to program them. Anyone who knows anything about programming in python will probably turn in their grave when they see this. However, I'm quite pleased with the outcome. It's yet another news theme, but it slides in and out from the side of the screen. There are other themes that do similar, although, they just appear, and disappear. This one SLIIIDES.
Hope you like it

0.2 The handles now slide in and out. They slide in when first extended; slide out when the widget is extended and the mouse is over the handle; slide in when the widget is extended and the theme is updated (currently set at a minute).
This is completely pointless eyecandy, but I thought, as I've done it, I'd share it.

Howto?
I've changed pretty much every variable i can see, and the graphics and text move, but nothing is visible outside of the little box the slider makes for itself in the top left corner of the screen...
In your screenshot you have multiple Sliders running, how are you changing the location???!!!???
Oh, and great work, this is loooovely.
:-D

For some reason I find that this file can interfere with the operation of the theme if you change its position. Once you delete it and restart, often the problems go away.

Since v0.25 there is no more need to manually enter the coordinates into the *.theme file.

You'll need to change the y values in the .py file in the mouseClicked and mouseMoved callbacks relating to the moveWidget function. If I recall correctly it is the only fixed numerical value in that function call.
You'll also need to change the y position of the theme in the .theme file to the same value.
You shouldn't need to change any other values (AFAICR).
