@Sean - it was sent. Thank you!

Result of Inspection.

It seems

Turtle’s Calendar - Personal Public calendars
Other 3 Calendars - Has only access allowed to Your G Suite Group.

In this case; the other 3 Calendars’ ical addresses will not be accessible from externs.

For example; Open the browser and put the URL of your “Work calendar” in the address form. It will show 404 error
In your Google Calendar settings, you can see warns.

Warning: The address won’t work unless this calendar is public.

This weekend I’m going to be working some more on the MM especially the CSS to get the calendars the way I want. So, I’m going to be making the “custom.css” file. Which of the current “.css” file am I going to us to fill the “custom.css” file? Also, on the next updating of MM am I going to lose the “custom.css” file?

Turtle

sdetweil

@Turtle no. Custom.css is no longer tracked, so u won’t lose it. The updater script also saves it.

Custom.css starts out empty, so u add whatever u need.

BKeyport

@Turtle find what you want to modify in the existing css files, then copy them over to custom.css - example:


/* Bottom Bar Adjustments */
.region.bottom.bar {
	background-color:rgba(0,0,0,.90);
}

/* Left adjustments */
.region.left {
	text-align: center;
}

Turtle

Thank you @sdetweil and @BKeyport for the information.

@Sean Is there a way to center the title for “daily” view? Normally, I’d just use .css for the region, but that doesn’t work with your module.

Thanks!

@BKeyport
what kind of title? event title like this?

.CX2 .daily .eventTitle {
  text-align:center;
}

Hi,
i’m looking for a daily view with 5 days in one row/line. The default for the daily-view seems to be one day per row.
Is there a possibility to show the days in one row?

I also tried the week-vie

Thanks,
Marcel

views: [
  {
    mode: "daily",
    type: "row",
    position:"bottom_bar",
    slotCount: 5,
    ...

Maybe some additional CSS adjusting might be needed for your environment, but basic concept is that.

BKeyport

@Sean No… I can’t post screen shots, but the overall title at the top of the view referenced here:

views: [
		{
			mode: "daily",
			**title: "Upcoming Events",**
			...

@BKeyport

As you can see in the bottom region, module header will respect the region align itself by default.
Usually, if you want to override the align of module header of a specific module, you can just do like this;

.MMM-CalendarExt2 header.module-header {
  text-align:center;
}

This CalendarExt2 is using a trick of fake-module for each view, so above CSS rule would make module header of all views to text-align:center;

If you want to specify the view in some region, Check this. (See the red titled view on the top right corner)

.region.top.right .MMM-CalendarExt2 header.module-header {
  text-align:left;
  color:#F00;
  font-weight:bold;
}

Be careful about white-space between CSS selectors.

BKeyport

@Sean Odd - I originally had it for both left and right regions (I like centered headers on a display) as

.region.right {
  text-align:center;
}

.region.left {
  text-align:center;
}

and it didn’t work. Now, once I put that back in, it works.

Okay then, Moving on…

@Sean

Thank you :slightly_smiling_face:
That’s what i was looking for…

I think the “type”-property is missing on your documentation, or I haven’ seen it…
Thank you.

Re: MMM-CalendarExt2
Hi,
Need some assistance to identify the reason and possible fix to my issue please, very new to this and a steep learning curve.
I have the calendar working and displaying correctly with other modules but i must leave the Daily view (7 day view) set to Bottom-bar.
When I change the region to any other region the Daily view (7 day view) disapears and will not display in any other region.
I want to move the daily view to the upper-third region to keep all the calendar elements together if possible.
Any guidance will be appreciated, have included the entire code.

@JHermann
If possible, can you send me configuration with real ical url? eouia0819@gmail.com

JHermann

This post is deleted!

BKeyport

@JHermann Bit of testing here - I took your config, modified it for my URLs rather than your stub urls, removed my custom.css and found an interesting layout.

I’m using a 1920x1080 monitor.

In landscape mode (wide monitor) - the daily view is interfering with the upcoming view in either position.
in portrait mode (Tall monitor) - the daily view does show for me in upper_third, but clashes with upcoming view. If daily view is in bottom_bar, it shows clean, but upcoming and parts of Minical and your weather app is hidden behind the NOAA picture.

I suspect what’s happening is the NOAA picture is covering up your view in the config that you have.

Do you have custom.css in place at all?
Have you tried commenting out the NOAA picture and seeing if it works in upper-third then?

– B

Edit: while @Sean likes to test with the normal URLs, I figure if they’re showing in one position, they should show with all of them, unless there’s something else wrong - some of my URLs are still google.

JHermann

@BKeyport Hi Mate, I have res set to 1920x1080 and am using portrait mode via screen layout editor and choosing orientation of right.
Am using a LED TV as the display, I have been emailing Sean and he has the same thoughts that other modules are interfering and he could can get daily view to display in other regions with only the calendar Ext2 module.
custom.css has only the below in it to reduce margins:

body {
margin: 20px;
position: absolute;
height: calc(100% - 40px);
width: calc(100% - 40px);
}
I have deleted all other modules from the Config file and still cant display the daily view in other regions at all…weird.
There must be something I am doing wrong but as as I am inexperienced I am struggling.
The new Config is below and have emailed Sean a screenshot (havent been able to upload a picture to this forum) and this config as well:
Any assistance is appreciated.

@JHermann
Have you done something on css/custom.css or main.css or any other css file?

JHermann

@Sean Only the Custom.css per below to reduce margins. No other changes to any ,css file as far as i recolect.

body {
margin: 20px;
position: absolute;
height: calc(100% - 40px);
width: calc(100% - 40px);
}

Maybe i should uninstall and start over?
