Desktop Widget Management

Yellow Sticky Notes (Xiao Huang Tiao) provides several types of desktop widgets that you can add, remove, and customize freely.

List-Type Widgets (switchable between lists):

  • Desktop Todo List
  • Desktop Sticky Notes List
  • Desktop Schedule List
  • Desktop Date Countdown List

Standalone Widgets:

  • Desktop Calendar (month/week/day views)
  • Desktop Weather & Time

Path: Right-click the system tray icon → SettingsApp Settings (left sidebar menu)

In the App Settings page, you control widgets via:

  • Todo / Sticky Notes / Schedule / Countdown widgets — Use the number slider to control how many instances appear. Set to 0 to close. You can place multiple instances, each bound to a different list.
  • Calendar widget — Toggle on/off via the switch
  • Weather & Time widget — Toggle on/off via the switch

All changes take effect immediately — no restart required.


Hover your mouse over a desktop widget → a list-switching button appears in the top-left corner → click to switch to another list.

💡 You can freely switch between Todo, Sticky Notes, Schedule, and Countdown lists on any list-type widget.
