MMM-CalendarExt2

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?

A Former User

@JHermann
Well , this kind of problem is not related to installation. Reinstall might solve the issue, but we don’t know why and how. And there is still possibility of not-solving.

The most common pitfall might be mistyping.

position: "top- right",

This is not a proper symbol of top_right region.

JHermann

@Sean Good point, that was a definite typo.

Multiple Icon in upcoming View

Please confirm how I can add more then one Icon in the upcoming view, I used the Transform event in "Views"but I can only get one icon to show…

A Former User

@Hram2008
Not possible. Why do you need? By the case, I could consider that feature, but normally, why is it needed?
You can transform the title to use emoji instead icon.

Hram2008

@Sean
Sorry, I am not not able attach an image. What i am trying to do is is the Transform event with specific text to add an emoji to the upcoming view… i.e Calendar event with “Birthday” in name would add a Birthday cake emoji to the event… I want to do this for other text… " Christmas" = x-mas Tree emoji…where other text would display other emoji…

A Former User

@Hram2008
First, I’m not sure emoji could be displayable on Electron(Chromium) of Raspbian without any additional things(font?). I have no RPI at this moment, so can’t test.
But I believe it could, And at least, on my other SBCs, it works.

Frankly says, How to transform exists already in the wiki of github repository, Anyway, I’ll show it again with another sample.

Before

Add transform into your target View. (Or you can apply it globally by defaultSet

transform: (event) => {
  event.title = event.title.replace(/FC/g, "⚽")
  event.title = event.title.replace(" - ", " VS. ")
  event.title = event.title.replace("(T.B.A.)", "")
  event.title = event.title.replace("Bayern München", `< img src='https://logodix.com/logo/337534.jpg' height='20px' width='100px' >`)
  return event
}

Then It will show like this;

@Sean
Thank you for taking the time to respond, not quite what i was looking to do but it did point me in the right direction.

Are they known issues on raspberry pi 2? I’m working on configs without success. Black screen, nothing, but other modules, appears.
Thanks

A Former User

@CharlesDS
Without log I cannot tell anything. More detailed info be needed. And Of course, on RPI2, it works.

Zinkeler

Hello,
everything works fine in landscape-mode. If i change to portrait-mode (display_rotate=1
avoid_warnings=1 in /boot/config.txt) my calender is not shown. All other modules are on my mirror.
Can someone give me a hint?
thx

@Zinkeler
Nothing suspicious.
Which view are you using? show me your config about this module.

Zinkeler

@Sean
{ module: ‘MMM-CalendarExt2’,
config: {
scenes:[
{
name: “DEFAULT”,
views: [“upcoming”,“weeks”],
},
],

{
name: “upcoming”,
mode: “upcoming”,
position: “top_left”,

@Zinkeler
Well, nothing suspicious in configuration.
What log says? open dev-tools on MM screen and see what log says.

Zinkeler

@Sean
sorry, I’ve never done that. how can i do that?
thx

A Former User

@Zinkeler
Ctrl + Shift + i (Or different per environment) on MM Screen.

@Sean
Hello,
I just went from MMM-Calendarext to MMM-calendarExt2
By following your advice: link text
And I have a few questions:

alt text

12/04 Dim. - Pâques
It says ‘Tommorow’
Why ?
How else to translate into (french) ‘Demain’

-16/04 and 17/04
The deadline for the period is indicated: 4/19
How to modify in 19/04

-Is it possible to delete the description of the day: “lundi”, “mardi”
but leave if there is an end date on another day (period)

Thanks

@Doudy
Hi,

Thanks
