MMM-CalendarExt2

@jerrylein @Sean how did you get your event cells larger to display an event that has a long description to the line below as well? I’ve tried using wrap & flex in my custom.css file & no dice.

Any help would be appreciated.

I couldn’t post a screenshot of what I’m talking about, but I was able to post it in the link below:

@dj6step Sean has left the forums due to family issues. no one has taken over this module.

@sdetweil I’m sorry to hear that about Sean. I guess I’ll keep my fingers crossed to see if @Jerrylein or anyone can point me in the right direction. This is the last piece I need to complete my MM.

Appreciate the quick response on this. This calendar module is the best out there.

To have different calendars on different pages MMM-Pages uses:

    notifications: {
      "PAGE_INCREMENT" : {
            exec: "sceneNext",
      },
      "PAGE_DECREMENT" : {
             exec: "scenePrevious",
       },
    } }

What would the equivalent be for MMM-Carousel, where the notification is constant and the payload changes?

    notification: "REMOTE_ACTION",
    payload: { action: "CAROUSEL_NEXT" }

    notification: "REMOTE_ACTION",
    payload: { action: "CAROUSEL_PREVIOUS" }

This sort of works:

notifications: {  
    "REMOTE_ACTION" : {
         payload: "CAROUSEL_NEXT",
         exec: "sceneNext",
    }
 },

Except in the view config, for page 2 only one scene is listed instead of both as it is with MMM-Pages (otherwise both are shown). However, when I switch to page 2: the calendar from page 1 is drawn for a few milliseconds, then the correct calendar is drawn, but then is immediately redrawn.

Hi all! Newbie here to all this… I’m building out my first smart display and the wife is hoping to have a 2 month calendar view - current and next month. Having a hard time figuring out on my own if that’s possible.

Got CalendarExt2 up and running without a hitch. Hoping there’s a way to show a second month right next to it. Any ideas?

@mrjdar No, it would be one on top of the other and probably too crammed to do much with. To paraphrase the dev from awhile back…the intent of MM is to have a snapshot of your life, smartphones/tablets are better suited to go beyond that.

For me, I put one month on a page, then the next month on another page. Here’s a guide on how to do that…but for it to work on mine, I only put 1 view per scene. In other words, don’t stack them views:[“VIEW1”, “VIEW2”], just views:[“VIEW2”] and the same for other pages. Then I use MMM-Pages and MMM-KeyBindings to move from page to page.

@nitewing76 Perfect thanks for the info! Sounds like that should make her happy and let me keep this up in the house :grinning_face_with_sweat:

I set mine up to display weekly format, 6 weeks, starting with the current week. So, 50% of the time it will actually display more “future” days than what you are wanting to do. Would that help?

mrjdar

@rmcelwee Yep that’s what I ended up going with after messing around with it some
