Skin menu has 8 widgets only this widget has the option to select its viewtype . You cannot select any other widget  and I have not hacked any code to accept different view types.
Do you mean to say that only the Last Widget on the whole home screen  ( I have Home / TV Shows / Movies/Music as  the Main nodes  & each menu item I have utilized the 8 widgets & every 8th widget I used as Landcsape Mode . This is just normal skin setup for its given parameters . No xml's modified.
I understand what's happening on a very basic level. Poser viewtype in a widget demands its Particular Height & wodth. When you introduce a different size ( landscape  widget) in between  there will be discrepancy . But can we adjust that somehow so the next wodget spacing is so to enable this difference in size ?
As you say its a known bug , but can we think around this ? could this be tackled or not ?  We can take Inspiration from the main Netflix UI . They have poster & landscape widgets & then a top10 .. these are all different sizes & then they also play trailer from wthin these widgets as well. So if we are trying to be faithful then should we not try & accomodate this ? 
I can understand that time to do this is a factor. No one here is being paid , just using our own free time & believe me I and everyone here really Appreciates this. But We can have a To Do / Wish List... 
I will give an example. Around a Six month to an year ago I had suggested to Achille'sPunk regards the Netflix style screen saver. But at that time it wasnt possible. Now Matke .. you yourself have achieved this ...

Then there is something wrong with your skin installation. Maybe there is something left from the previous version if you haven't done the installation from scratch.
You edited the post in the meantime. That's right, only the latest widget can be different. I am working on a new function to make one widget in the middle bigger, to play a trailer ...Like in netflix. But it is a very demanding job.
This is still just kodi after all. Some things cannot be fully implemented.

Thanks. 
Yes I read Achille's description and thats Why i updated the post to clearly define.
Believe me when I say its really appreciated .. wahtever you and Achille'sPunks do here is commendable as its just of of love of Kodi ...
