    • RE: Looking for feedback and advice

      Posting this for any newcomers like me that weren’t really pointed in any direction, and don’t know the terminology in which to search for answers.

      1. Advice (right or wrong) on current setup
        A: I don’t really have answer for this, I know what I did to correct my issues, but don’t fully understand the why of it all.
      2. Extend the event name for less wrap-around
        A: maxTitleLength, maxLocationTitleLength & maxLocationEvents (look at the Config details on the github of the module) is what worked for me.
      3. Show Location (if any) of event? (line below possible?)
        A: showLocation: true,
      4. Extend EXT3 to bottom of screen in this position
        A: this took a lot longer to figure out, but using Dev mode is what made me figure it out. I was trying to use a height: XXXXXpx; (in the .css module content) which was making the screen jump up like half a page…in Dev mode, found the body module was way oversized, changed the height parameter to 100% and that fixed the jumping issue, then figured out in the EXT3 module, I could increase the maxEventLines to expand the module to the bottom of the screen (look at the Config details on the github of the module), works perfect now.
      5. Reconfigure EXT3 module correctly?
        Answered in #4 above.

      ***I still don’t know what the body is or does, but I now know it should match your screensize (i believe) There is also something in the EXT3 module that makes the height parameter not work which is probably by design, because stretching a module would probably make it look weird, thankfully adding event lines is builtin. Going back and reading all the modules on github made me figure everything out. Uploading the final result. ***

    • MMM-CalendarExt3 Resize module

      I’ve been searching and either I’m not using the right search parameters or it can’t be done. Right now I have the calendar in the top_bar region, but I’m looking to resize it to fill up the right side 3/4 of the screen.

      I’m guessing it could be done with a custom.css…and if so, can you point me in the direction of some parameters I might look for while learning to use the .css file?

      Maybe it just can’t be done.

      (2nd question not that I’m thinking of it, how to I get the symbols that I designated in the regular calendar module to show in the CX3 module?)
