The Scaled Boxes widget works in a similar way as the Scaled Icon widget but the sizes of the indicator values are shown using boxes instead of icons.

The section below describes specific settings for the Scaled Boxes widget. Note that generic widget settings are described on the Widget Generic Settings page, so if you cannot find the setting you are looking for check there too.

Palette

Choose a color palette for the boxes. You can edit the active palette by clicking the x buttons to remove colors or the + button to add colors. There are also buttons to change to a different palette completely, to copy/paste color codes to/from the clipboard and to toggle the direct edit view that allows you to type in color codes delimited by spaces or commas e.g. #a6cee3 #b2df8a #fb9a99 #fdbf6f #cab2d6 #ffff99 #1f78b4 #33a02c #e31a1c #ff7f00.
