I am grateful for your enlightening message and the added link,

That’s going to be very helpful and intereresting.

Many thanks.

@plainbroke the other thing is positioning

there are two modes relative and absolute

a web page is layed out with 0 in the top left corner (0,0) (or right in rtl languages)

in relative mode, content is positioned RELATIVE to the containing element it is in

text in a div , if centered, is in the center of the div space, wherever it is.

there are different measurement types
pixels, physical (absolute)
els(element size), content relative (size of text)
%, shape relative. (size of div)
vh/vw% - size of the visible page h= height w= width

pixels is easy but if the screen size changes, the pixels don’t.

in absolute mode, everything is relative to the 0,0 corner.

by default content is top down , FIFO.
first in, first out.

but you can use flex to change the preference from vertical to horizontal. and which end is the start or end.

and then there is grid. yikes!

fonts and colors and shadings and animations (fade and zoom and transparency!)

@sdetweil

Thank you sdetweil for your message.

I have tried several timezones for the system upper right on the pi desktop.

It has no effect on the times displayed on my calendar on Magic Mirror, still GMT+0 instead of GMT+2 on my Google Calendar.

I have also tried different timezones in Google Calendar.
It has no effect either on my calendar on Magic Mirror.
It seems that Google Calendar uses UTC time in .ics files.

Now the timezone is set correctly on my system.
The problem should be in my configuration of the module MMM-CalendarExt2.

I have just put the line forceLocalTZ to false, and at last, both calendars on Google Calendar and on MMM_CalendarExt2 are synchronized !

It’s a bit strange as I thought forceLocalTZ:true should force the time to my local timezone and the contrary happens ?!

But the problem is solved.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Cordial greetings.

Thank you so much BKeyport for your help and for sharing your ineresting working example.
Using it, I have just got the connection with my google calendar in Magic Mirror at last !.
I have still plenty of things to understand and options to adjust as I would like to see the month template like my google agenda.
But I am very grateful for your decisive help at this crucial step and for offering me a good basis to go further !

Cordial greetings.

I’ve just got my background picture in MagicMirror.

Thank you very much MMRIZE for your reply and explanation !

Good to know that youTubeID has this priority and the way to drop out its default value.

Cordial greetings.
