Steps

  1. 1
    In a previous tutorial, I installed the Weather widget
    .
    This widget came out in default 2X3 grid. To resize this widget, I can press and hold it.

    You notice that as I'm moving it around, it displaces other icons
    .
    It will move the icons, so that they are out of the way of the widget.
