2. When you are setting up the widget limit, you get a list with the numbers, and then a number pad. This creates problems because the numpad retains some numbers regardless of what you select from the list. For instance, if you select "fifty", and then none, because of the numpad it will remain at fifty, and so on. IMO, one of these should be removed.

If you are the latest git of skin shortcuts and the skin dev branch you should not see this list of numbers. This list was my original approach to the limit and was commented out of the code so it should not display. (FYI the shortcuts folder contains the code that was commented out in the overrides.xml) If you are on the latest git just make sure you have not done a copy and paste over your existing install and have also updated the shortcut folder not just the 1080 folder.

3. In the Extended Mixed widget layout, some panels ignore the settings that were given to them. I haven't researched it enough to know what precisely happens at which times, but the most common occurrence in my case has been when the posters layout is converted to square posters. I presume that this is by design, to ensure the correct amount of space is occupied, but the consequence is that 9 times out of 10 the widget ends up looking differently than it was set up during config. As I said, I presume it's a feature rather than a bug, but it would be nice if it were explained in some future gallery/update, since novice users will get confused. As an alternative (though a complex one), some layout options could become unavailable depending on what you select as a first widget. So if the first is a fanart layout, the skin would know that there isn't enough room for another one, and would disable them for the other three widget choices, etc...

If you change the widget type the artwork will be reset to a predefined value. Music/addons will revert to square and Movies/tvshows will revert to poster. What I have noticed is the artwork label does itself does not change to the default value the first time you change the type. If you try a second time the label will update. This might be what your seeing. So everytime you change the widget type you need to change the artwork if you do not want the default value.

Another thing is the 2nd and 4th panel only show the top part of the poster for poster layout. (just not enough room to make it fit) I could make it smaller but the aspect of the poster would be out.
