MMM-CalendarExt3

[techlady]

Hi
I would like to know how to make the calendar smaller. As you can see in the picture, my tv is in portrait, and the calendar takes up a lot of space. Where and what changes in custom css could I make to make it smaller and more rectangular? Thank you.

@techlady
Adjust ‘maxEventLines’ and ‘eventHeight’. The heighr of day cell would be calculated by maxEventLines x eventHeight.

Hi Guys,

Just installed a brand new MM instance and downloaded the latest MMM-CalendarExt3 but for some reason i get no entries from my google calendars…

I get entries if i setup MMM-CalendarExt2 or the default calendar but not on MMM-CalendarExt3…

Here is my Config

{
  module: "MMM-CalendarExt3",
  position: "bottom_center",
  config: {
    mode: "month",
    instanceId: "basicCalendar",
    locale: 'en-UK',
	fontSize: '25px',
	refreshInterval: 10000,
    maxEventLines: 5,
    firstDayOfWeek: 1,
    calendarSet: ["KD", "Tini"],
		}
	},
	{
  module: "calendar",
  config: {
    broadcastPastEvents: true, 
    calendars: [
	{
			name: "KD",
			className: "KD",
			url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/basic.ics",
			color: "green"
		},
		{
			name: "Tini",
			className: "tini",
			url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/basic.ics",
			color: "pink"
		},
	]
	}
      },

@KD if you use the calendar url in a browser, it should download a file, just text. you an edit that to see if there are events

@sdetweil Hi there - i can download the file by putting the URL in the browser and open it in Outlook and see the events…

Also, I use both URL’s in another 2 magic mirrors I have in the house… I’m confident it’s not the URL’s

@KD ok, this looks like the bug I introduced in 2.20. fixed in 2.21, October 1

broadcastPastEvents loads up the past events then the new, and the bug cuts off after the 1st maximumEntries

so u have to increase maximum entries

@sdetweil Thanks Sam - do you mean “maxEventLines”?

If yes I have set them up to 10 now and still nothing

  module: "MMM-CalendarExt3",
  position: "bottom_center",
  config: {
    mode: "month",
    instanceId: "basicCalendar",
    locale: 'en-UK',
	fontSize: '25px',
	refreshInterval: 10000,
    maxEventLines: 10,
    firstDayOfWeek: 1,
    calendarSet: ["KD", "Tini"],
		}
	},

@KD no in the base calendar module. default
maximumEntries defaults to 10,
that is where you have broadcastPastEvents:true

@sdetweil Thank you Sam, i tried that and still nothing…

Here is my config now:

{
  module: "MMM-CalendarExt3",
  position: "bottom_center",
  config: {
    mode: "month",
    instanceId: "basicCalendar",
    locale: 'en-UK',
	fontSize: '25px',
	refreshInterval: 10000,
    maxEventLines: 10,
    firstDayOfWeek: 1,
    calendarSet: ["KD", "Tini"],
		}
	},
	{
  module: "calendar",
  config: {
    broadcastPastEvents: true, 
    maximumEntries: 100,
    calendars: [
	{
			name: "KD",
			className: "KD",
			url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/basic.ics",
			color: "green"
		},
		{
			name: "Tini",
			className: "tini",
			url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/basic.ics",
			color: "pink"
		},
	]
	}
      },

@KD for the short term add

position: “top_left”,

to the calendar module location

let’s make sure it is working
