<![CDATA[Calendar and Slideshow capabilites]]>Hello, I have just discovered MMM and I am considering a calendar project. My question is very basic but I guess I have to start somewhere. I would like to have a slideshow from a google photo album playing in the background and a full screen 30-45 day google calendar & weather “semi transparent” in the foreground. I have a 19" monitor in portrait orientation. I believe from the literature this is doable but I wanted to confirm before getting stuck into this project.
Thanks in advance !

I think I will begin the project and my education on MM if MMM_CalendarExt2 is the ‘best’ for a full screen calendar is the is there an alternative if I can’t quit cut it with the ‘best’.
Best regards

or one of the ones that loads from dropbox or google drive…

the calendar is more troublesome

the ‘best’ full page is MMM-CalendarExt2, but the author has left MM and no one has picked up support…
it is very complex to customize… (and u can customize everything)
