Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

Yes, I only have allday events.

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

I can also confirm this problem. Widget is not showing todays all-day events. It worked fine before :)

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

Ok, found the reason for this. But it may take a bit more time to fix
this.

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

Version 0.9.7.
Ok, today-allday events are back again. (Not only today allday
events were missing, but all current events starting somewhere in the
past.)

Nicolai

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

Nice one Nicolai. Seems to be working fine now. Keep up the good work fella.

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

Hello!

Something odd is going on my phone ... Current (0.9.7) and previous version doesn't display future day names properly -- as on screenshot:

http://img577.imageshack.us/img577/1620/calendarprb.png

Have no idea what & when happened, it's like this for about 2 weeks and since is not so much annoying I totaly forgot to report :)

And some suggestion/request -- Conversations widget (on right) change color when pressed -- is something like that possible with calendar widget?

Thanks for your effort,
b.

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

What do you mean by "not displayed properly"? Do you mean the font? In that case, the check this post: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=309

HTH.

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

Where can I find the png files which make up the widget (the ones that seperate each event)? I want to replace them with transparent files to make the widget transparent. I know theme customiser does this but I uninstalled that because I was having an issue with it.

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

Do you mean the background? The background is in opt/usr/share/themes/YOUR THEME/images, look for CalendarAppletBackground.png.

The top left corner icon is the calendar_applet.png, which will be in the 64/hildon folder of the icon pack or hicolor set you're using,

Kind Regards,

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

I have never looked up, whether gtk supports a tablelike layout.
But it has!

And, hopefully, I fixed the timezone bug now.

Please test and give feedback. At least this bug with events
in different timezones (after syncing with google calendar)
is difficult to test for one alone.

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

Just updated to the last version, 0.9.8 and the new table layout shows some strange side effects: Some long entries in appointments and tasks make the description column so big that the date column vanishes completely. When I restrict the number of rows to a smaller values and only some tasks with short descriptions are displayed, the date column reappears.

I guess calculating the size for the date column and then using the remaining widget breadth as fixed size for the description column could do the trick.

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

Fixed in version 0.9.9

Thank you for testing.

Nicolai

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

Nicolai, usually I only use the "Thanks" button for this. But this time I deserves an extra post: Thanks for the quick fix in 0.9.9. :)

I confirm that the table works now, even with long texts, and also the weekday names look fine now.

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

Unfortunately, the Birthdays are still displayed a day before with 0.9.9 version.

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

Hi rajil.s
it seems your birthdays are somehow special.
From where are this entries?
I guess this aren't smart calendar birthdays?

Nicolai

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

Hi Nicolai,

Actually, they are indeed Smart calendar birthdays. Is there any way i can export the calendar entry so i could paste here the details?

Thanks

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

This command will export all smart calendar birthdays to a file
"bbday.txt" in your MyDocs folder.
sqlite3 -header ~/.calendar/calendardb 'select * from components where componenttype = 4' > ~/MyDocs/bbday.txt

The entry in the seventh column is the name of your contact, you may
want to delete this entry before posting your data here. (No need to
paste the full file here, one or two lines should be enough.)

Nicolai

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

Thanks! Much prettier now :)

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

Thanks, was not aware of this. Guess I cant' hide I don't read forum on daily basis :P

Cheers,
b.

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

@Nicolai,
This contact bday is on 15th Dec but shows up on 14th Dec in the widget.

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

Love the new font, thanks!

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

@rajil.s

Have you ever tried to delete the birthdays smart calendar and then create a new one? That worked for me after traveling to another time zone. I think it's not a bug in the Calendar Home Widget.

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

@Nicolai:

I have 2 widgets, one only for calendar entries and the other only for tasks. After update to 0.9.9 the task widgets also shows calendar entries. I switched through the options and tied to replace the widget but nothing worked.

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

@phil!
Yes, I noticed this too :-)
Fix is on its way.

Nicolai

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

Version 0.9.11
- setting view mode to Events, Tasks, or Events & Tasks works again
- weekday names are shown for tasks as well
- and maybe the bug with rajil.s birthdays is fixed.

nicolai

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

No more bugs?

Time for extras-testing.

Nicolai

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

What is the expected behavior when the "Update when switch to the desktop" is not selected? My understanding was that when not selected the widget would update periodically or when a change in the calendar was signaled on dbus.

I had always have it unselected and the widget was showing the events correctly. Events would get out of the list once finished.

Some time ago I was forced to select it because finished events would still show on the widget. I thought it was related to this problem I mention here http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=259, but now this problem seems to be fixed and I still need "Updated when switch to the desktop" selected in order to get the widget updated whenever an event finishes.

Is this a bug or a misunderstanding of the meaning of the option?

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

Just found a bug :( I have a task due 1 January 2012 but it shows in the widget already....with a date of 12/31... and a Day of Saturday, which is the day of Dec 31st in 2012. (widget is set to show 2 weeks)

Thanks for the app its great and keeps getting better!

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

@nicolai,
Any hints how to log/test/debug specific widgets for memory leaks in long run? Some bullet points on what process/service to watch and what specific memory consumption to monitor?

This is probably one tool to look for when doing this kind of analyze.
http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/...5/sp-endurance

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

The intended behavior is to update whenever
- dbus signaled a change in the calendar
- the day changed
- for one of the displayed events the end time passed by.

I added "Update when switch to the desktop" option for
those users who use programs which changes the
calendardb directly (no dbus signals are emitted -
erminig for example).

It may be that I broke the automatic update. I made quite huge
changes and must admit I didn't test the automatic update.

Thank you for reporting this.

Nicolai

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

Two bugs here, first the widget should show only tasks for the
next 2 weeks and second the timezone offset isn't
recognized. I fixed this behavrior for birthdays and other
allday events. But it seems I missed this fix for tasks.

Thank you for reporting this.

Nicolai

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

I have the bug which results in birthdays being shown a day earlier. I have deleted the smart calendar and re-added but has not changed it.

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

unbelieveable. This shouldn't happen anymore.
can you post which locale and timezonesetting you use.

nicolai

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

I am in the UK, GMT +0. The device is a US version though. Not sure if that affects anything. Noticed that it was showing the wrong date for an anniversary in the blue smart calendar (think that is called N900 calendar). Or rather it was showing the same event on two dates - the correct date and the day before.

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

Hi! Is this the same Calendar widget as the one that came pre-installed on the N900? It looked the same but somehow I could not get the nice calendar entry colors. Also, how do you change the widget size?

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

No, it is not the same as the pre-installed.

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

New version 1.0 in extras-devel:
* auto updating the view works again.
* tasks doesn't ignores the timezone
* shows only the tasks for the selected
time interval

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

Works great now, thanks for the quick fix!

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

I need two more votes in extras-testing for promoting, please.

edit: that was fast, thank you.


Nicolai

Re: Calendar Home Widget replacement
 

I'm receiving a notification about an update for the Cal Home Widget, is there anything new in new version or is it just a fix for a few bugs that people have reported?
