# Widget Options Constants

There are several option types that can be specified in the widget options table, which are exposed to the user via the Widget Settings menu.\
\
For example:

```
-- Create a table with default options
-- Options can be changed by the user from the Widget Settings menu
-- Notice that each line is a table inside { }
local options = {
  { "Source", SOURCE, 1 },
  -- BOOL is actually not a boolean, but toggles between 0 and 1
  { "Boolean", BOOL, 1 },
  { "Value", VALUE, 1, 0, 10},
  { "Color", COLOR, ORANGE },
  { "Text", STRING, "Max8chrs" }
}

```
