[Q] Need help restricting text length, Margins in Rich Text aren't working

Firstly, I *love* ZWP and have been using it religiously.
With my new Nexus 5, however, I decided to make a new widget to match the current phone instead of my previous setup. I like having my next 3-4 calendar appointments shown in a list with dates and times and the heading, in the #C0SEEE dd - HH:mm# #C0TITLE# format. Some appointments though have longer titles and interfere with other items I have entered into the widget.
I tried using the new Rich Text feature and setting margins to various lengths and setting lines to 1, but a long appointment title still bleeds over into the next portion of my layout.
What am I missing?

You should consider using the [tr]-tags to limit your field to a certain amount of characters. Usage example in your case would be
Code:
#C0SEEE dd - HH:mm# [tr=30]#C0TITLE#[/tr]
This would limit the output of the title to 30 characters and put three dots at the end to indicate the string is longer than what is displayed. You'll have to play around a bit to find the right limit for your particular setup though.
For future references, you can find all the available tags for Rich Text Modules here.
Hope this helps you out

Link am/pm marker to event calendar time

Hi,
I remember reading once how to link to am/pm marker to a calendar event. So that if you are in the AM and looking at a calendar event in the PM, the calendar event time will display correctly.
I know it is some combination of #C0Sh:mm# and #Da# but for some reason when I write #C0Sh:mm Da# I get "3:00 350PM" and when I type #C0Sh:mm da# I get "3:00 16PM"
I have done this is the past successfully, anyone know the correct format?
Also, is there a way to force the AM/PM markers to lowercase
Any help is much appreciated
Thanks,
Brad

The D is used to identify a date tag and the a is the AM/PM marker. If you want do use it in a calendar event tag, you have to omit the D and use just the a. In your case that would read:
Code:
#C0Sh:mm a#
Now, if you want to force it to small caps, you'll have to use a Rich Text Module with the [tl][/tl](to lowercase) BBCode and split up the tags so it looks like this:
Code:
#C0Sh:mm# [tl]#C0Sa#[/tl]
Hope this helps you out

I need to write this down, second time I had to ask for help on this. Some kind of mental block with it heh.

[Q] Calendar code questions - calendar event lookahead time

My current calendar code is the following:
Code:
#C0SEEE#: $#C0D#=1?All Day:#C0SHH.mm#$ | [tr=17]#C0TITLE#[/tr]
Is there a way to set calendar event lookahead time for seven days? I mean that if the next event is within the next 7 days, show it. If not, don't show it.
Also another question. Is it possible to show the event date if the event is not today and hide the date if event is today?

This can be done with Tasker. If you want, i can upload the profile that i use on my tab

Sure, that would be nice. Can't it be done without Tasker?

If you write this code in Advanded Parameters
[c]$#C0STd#>7?#00000000$[/c]
text will be hided if it is more than seven days from now

Sorry for replying late. Was busy :cyclops:
Anyways, please find attached the profile I use.
A few things to note:
1) %caldays variable is set to value 0:6 currently. And that will show calendar entries for next 7 days. Change it to 0:13, for example, if you want to show the entries for next 14 days. Customize as per your need
2) In line 6, you can set the zooper variable as per your need. One very important thing here is that you need to add " °" next to %lup otherwise it wont work as expected
3) Create a Zooper richtext widget, click "edit text manually" and set it to
$#Tcalx#$
4)Dont set the tasker profile to update at 12:00 midnight, it doesnt work porperly. Just add a minute or 2 for it to work as expected
I hope its not too confusing. :silly: Just give it a shot.
It would be nice if someone can post a better solution

[Q] the use of buttons?

Is it possoble to get me to press a bitmap and male ot shrink while making a different one grow?

Yes this can be achieved. With any type of toggle input you will need to create a Tasker task which will toggle a variable on or off. You can then output this variable to Zooper and use a conditional to act upon the variable state (in this case you would want to use the bitmap scaling function on each of the bitmaps) then set the module on tap element of both bitmaps to the task shortcut in order to activate it.
The speed at which this works would be dependant on your phone/tablet so it might not work particularly fast.

Is there a video for this? Im kinda confused but im understanding it a little more.

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner.
This isn't a video but should help you to create the toggle in Tasker: http://www.pocketables.com/2013/03/how-to-create-a-toggleable-task-in-tasker.html
After you have got that working you just need to add another action so press + in your task then select plugin, and then Zooper Widget Pro.
In configuration enter the Tasker variable in ZW Text (remember the %) and enter a name in ZW Variable which you want to use in zooper, this can be anything you want. The convention is to use all capitals for Zooper variables buy it is not necessary.
Once you have saved this you will see that Tasker has added #T to the start of your variable and another # at the end, this is what you will be using in zooper.
Exit from the task with the < icon in the top left corner until you are back at the task page. This is important as it saves your task and also you will not be able to access the task shortcut from Zooper (or any other app for that matter) as Tasker will still be in edit mode.
Right, in your zooper widget call up one of your Bitmaps and go to advanced parameters. Enter this code , changing the variable name to what you have chosen
PHP:
$#TTASK#=1?[s]50[/s]:[s]100[/s]$
This tells Zooper to display bitmap at 50% if #TTASK# is set to 1 or 100% otherwise
Go to module on tap, select the Task Shortcut from the shortcuts menu, then select your task from the list - It will probably prompt you to select an icon. Do that and you have finished that bitmap. Now repeat the parameters in the other bitmap but change =1 to =0 so it is reversed then you are done.
Hopefully I haven't missed anything but let me know if you encounter any problems.

You've misunderstood me a little there, probably my fault.
In Zooper configuration enter %Toggle as the ZWText. It need to be the variable you have already defined in tasker, otherwise you are telling tasker to output a variable that you are not setting.
Also, you can just put one zooper plugin activity after the End If instead of having two separate statements as Tasker will read this last and update then.

Dude the man it works now
When I'm done with the widget I'll tell you so u can see what I shud improve, ATM I have 2 five nights at Freddy's widgets posted if u wanna check them out

Yo, the doors work for the toggle, but I'm trying to make chika and bonnie pop up on screen after a certain time that they show up at the doors
So basically, can I make a timer that that is triggered by one bitmap showing up and when it goes to zero a different bitmap pops up?

Zooper all day event start time

I really need help in two issues:
1. I want to use ":" as a text but not variable. Eg. : #C1SMMM# #C1Sd# |$#C1D#=0? #C1SHH:mm#$ #C1TITLE# #C1LOC#. Zooper parses ":" between hour and minute as "THEN" variable inside the formula. How can I make it appear just as text?
2. Time of all day events is 00-00 but Zooper. Eg. Today is 11 of June and I have all day event on 12-th of June, and I'm using +#C0STd# to show days left till next event, so that event is shown as +0 instead of +1. How can I fix it?
Thanks.

Anyone?
