Does anyone know how to increase the event cells? So it will display on the line below? I’ve included a screenshot, you can see that my event doesn’t fit on one line & I’ve been able to wrap the text & it shows the overflow text below, but the cell is too small. I’ve looked online into wrap & flex styles for the custom.css file.
Let me know if anyone has ran into this issue & what the fix is.
Cheers,

@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?

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

Hi again all. I was messing around with this and reading more of the documentation and came across a nice solution for my previous post (kind of on accident). I have this:
views: [ { position: "bottom_left", mode: "month", }, { position: "bottom_right", mode: "month", fromNow: "1", }, ],In short it shows you the current month on the left, and the next month on the right. Works perfect for our needs!

Anyone know the transform function rather well?
I want to change the name on my calendar items from the actual title, to a generic “Appointment”.
I’m pretty sure it’s a transform, I’m just not sure how to do it.
Thanks!

I’m trying to have a ‘daily’ view where in the morning it shows all of the items for today, and in the evening it shows all of the items for tomorrow. I know i have to make two different ‘views’ and two different ‘scenes’, but what i am struggling with is how to actually change them. I saw in the github that you can do this either on a set period with the ‘rotateInterval’ command but also with a notification or other trigger. How would i go about doing so with the notification or other trigger? Any documentation out there about that?
Thanks,

Well i ended up figuring out how to do this a couple hours after this post, so i figured I would share in case anyone else wanted to do the same. I used MMM-ModuleScheduler. Basically you can set certain times to send out a notification that MMM-CalendarExt2 recognizes. Heres my config:
{ module: "MMM-ModuleScheduler", config: { notification_schedule: [ { notification: "CALEXT2_SCENE_CHANGE", schedule: "0 12 * * *", //Schedule time based on crontab.guru payload: { type: "name", key: "Afternoon Scene" } }, { notification: "CALEXT2_SCENE_CHANGE", schedule: "0 0 * * *", //Schedule time based on crontab.guru payload: { type: "name", key: "Morning Scene" } } ] } }You can set up as many scheduled notifications as you’d like. You can see here that, based on crontab scheduling, I am set up to change the scene at Midnight and at noon. The payload key value is the name of the scene you’d like to switch to. You can see other options on CalExt2 notifications here.

I’d like to see a picture of what this looks like.

Hi, i have a problem with my scanInterval I want it to update every 2 hours but it keeps updating every minute. (disappears for one second)
I already tried different time formats but it didn’t work.
Thanks,
Lukemodule: 'MMM-CalendarExt2', config: { calendars : [ { name: „Ich", url: „***********“, scanInterval: 7200000, (already tried: 1000*60*60*2, 2*60*60*1000, ) }, { name: "Feiertage", url: „***********", scanInterval: 7200000, (already tried: 1000*60*60*2, 2*60*60*1000, ) }, { name: "Uni", url: „**********" scanInterval: 7200000, (already tried: 1000*60*60*2, 2*60*60*1000, ) }, ], views: [ { name: "view1", mode: "week", calendars: [], hideOverflow: false, position: "bottom_bar", slotCount: 3, filterPassedEvent: true, locale: "de-DE", }, { name: "upcoming", mode: "upcoming", position: "top_left", maxItems: 5, maxDays: 7, locale: "de-DE", hideOverflow: false, filterPassedEvent: true, }, ], scenes: [ { name: "DEFAULT", }, ], }, }, -

@luke1 I believe it refreshes every minute anyway, but don’t ping the servers for the time you specify. If you want it to stop animating as a stopgap, you can use this:
/* Stop animating */ .CX2.hidden { display: block; opacity: 1; animation-name: none; animation-iteration-count: 0; animation-timing-function: none; animation-duration: 0s; } .CX2.shown { display: block; opacity: 1; animation-name: none; animation-iteration-count: 0; animation-timing-function: none; animation-duration: 0s; } -
@bkeyport Thanks a lot! :)
