Looks like when the applet is on the desktop, the date string doesn't wrap. It probably should. My digital clock widget is at the top center of my screen. No wrapping is necessary. When I configure the widget for long date format, the long date is too tiny. I would like it to be the same size as the clock digits. When the date is displayed below the time, using a smaller font size is intentional, to de-emphasize it compared to the time. So that's gotta stay the same. However it shouldn't be that much smaller; the bug I identified is that when it can't wrap and there's not enough width, it becomes quite small. But when there is a lot of space, it shouldn't be too much smaller. Can you attach a screenshot that shows the problem on your setup? I'm so sorry for this bug report. I didn't realize I could simply resize the widget on the Desktop and get a larger date. You can indeed. :) Nonetheless, the date should wrap. I'll see about fixing it.

Digital Clock default size with long date
As you can see from this .png file, the long date is quite small if user doesn't resize the widget.
I am willling to resize the widget to make long date readable on my screen.
