MMM-CalendarExt3

I probably don’t understand enough about how this system works to help much, but isn’t every calendar entry a separate event, which is why the eventTransformer works to change the individual icons? How is it that this icon spills over into the Legend entry, and not just the specific calendar entries?

In any case, what about adding a new config option to hideLegendIcons that forcibly removes the CSS tag, or something like that?

You can simply append this code to your css/custom.css

.CX3 .legend.useSymbol .symbol {
  display: none;
}

Recently I noticed my Calendars disappear after a few hours. I’m not sure when it started. If I VNC into my mirror and refresh or restart the mirror they come back only to stop appearing a few hours later. I see no errors in the log.

I’m using
MMM-CalendarExt3 and MMM-CalendarExt3Agenda in conjunction with MMM-Scenes, the instances that are only on specific scenes are the ones that disappear. I have another instance of MMM-CalendarExt3Agenda that is on all the scenes and that one seems to stay, so I’m wondering if it’s an MMM-Scenes issue.

Edit: I’m also using MMM-Pir. I’m wondering if that might be doing something.

@gonzonia mmm-pir is supposed to put the mirror to sleep if there is no movement

And Scenes make logical pages. Like MMM-pages, or carousel

So you have multiple things making content hide

@sdetweil I know. It used to all work great. I don’t think Scenes has updated in a while.
MMM-CalendarExt3 and MMM-pir have both had updates though.

To clarify, when I say disappear, I mean that they are no longer on the screen.Not just that the data is empty. The headers, dates, etc. All not visible. I’ve just restarted recently, I’ll try to look at the page source next time it happens.

Also, I’m using the xrandr mode for mmm-pir since I’m in Raspbian 11 and when I use dpms it doesn’t wake the screen for some reason.

@gonzonia when a module is hidden , nothing shows

My wife takes appointments for her business, so she has a lot of events each day she works. I want to be able to merge back-to-back events and show the start time of the first event and the end time of the last event to reduce the number of entries on the calendar.

Ideally, I would like something that could account for gaps between appointments as well since she will still be at work. Ie) I can set the transformer to combine all events that are <= 2 hours apart, and it will show me the start time of the first event and the end time of the last event. I know it’s asking for a lot, and it’s probably not even possible, but I wanted to ask.

@Ragged4310
Could you show me the example of the events?

I would like to consolidate the events with the little yellow massage person if its possible since she is gone for the whole time and it hogs up the event space. I tried using chatgpt and perplexity, but everytime they gave me something the calendar would not load.

For Dec 11 she has 3 appointments back to back, instead of it taking up 3 lines I would prefer if I could get it to show 2:00PM - 7:00PM for one event.

For Dec 23, she currently only has 2 appointments and there’s a small gap. Since the gap is < 2 hours I would like if I could consolidate that as well so it would show 10:00AM - 2:00PM.

I don’t know the event transformer too well, so I’m not sure if it can handle something like that.

Edit- Another thing I thought of… if it is possible to merge…
Is there a way to store how many events were merged? I’ll use the Dec 11 for the example again. If I can merge all 3 events into one, could I have it stored in a variable where I can display (3) at the end of the event to indicate there were 3 events?
