-You can find the Widget List ingame under Settings/Misc 'Widget List' with simple settings disabled. By default it is bound to Alt+F11, you can change the hotkey from here. The widget menu contains many active widgets important to the default UI. Your custom widgets should be at the top, in a group called User local, from which you can activate them.
