Is there a conditional that can return a "positive negative" if there is no data to retrieve for a text module? Here's my example:
I have a text module where I'm using Calendar content to fetch the day, time, and title of my next calendar appointment. The tap-on for this module opens the Calendar app. However, if there are no upcoming appointments, the module is not tappable, and therefore won't open the Calendar app (such as if I need to ADD an appointment). So what I would like to do is have it display something (custom text would be best, but anything would work) if I have no upcoming appointments.
Any thoughts?

This is a more general question about the mobile Gmail app versus the browser version. My current implementation of an "Unread" email inbox consists of a saved search for "is:unread" kept as a QuickLink named "Unread." Unfortunately, the mobile Gmail app doesn't see QuickLinks as Labels, so I can't open just that label to read just unread messages.
What I essentially want is to be able to choose a label in the Gmail widget so the widget shows just unread mail. Then, when I read the mail, it'd disappear automatically from the widget (preferably staying in the inbox).
The only thing I've figured out so far is manually moving things out of inbox and use that as the unread place, but this is cumbersome to my workflow and how I generally think of inbox (read, but unprocessed, tasks and information).
Let me know what you think about the possibility of this, thanks!
Hey all,
Is there a way to set the default calendar for new events you create on your phone using the default HTC calendar app?
Back on the ICS when I created a new event I selected the right calendar while creating the event (on the top-left) and after creating one event it would remember which calendar I used and use that as the default one for new events.
Now on JB that doesn't seem to work anymore, so now I keep having to select the right calendar, which I often forget.
Also is there a way to change the color of a calendar? Now it just randomly assigns a color to all the events from a single calendar, but I would like to set it myself.
Thanks in advance.
Hey there.
I'm experiencing the same issue as I'm using the google calendar, but new events get created in the pcsync-calendar every time.
Did you find a solution yet?
[@ colors: If you're using google calendar, you can set the colors over the web at https://www.google.com/calendar ]
Greetings!

The same issue. With every new entry in calendar I always have to change the calendar from default PCSync calendar to gmail.com calendar (PCSync does not sync to google account) even if the PCSync calendar is not selected in visible calendars.
I did not find any solution yet.

The default Google Calendar app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.calendar) remembers last calendar used.
But it's not a solution if you want to use stock HTC calendar.
How can I change in S Planner a calendar entry who was created in Exchange / Outlook? S-Planner show only the possibility Copy, Delete and Send. If I create the entry directly on S Planner , it is also possible to change the calendar entries.
Any idea?
I checked and I'm have the same features for events I've created in Exchange, I'm just restricted regarding other people's events.
I have also lost the ability to edit exchange 2007 calendar events after upgrading from ICS to JB (both stock rooted)
This is even tho the events are "organized" by me. As I set them up on Outlook.
EDIT: It appears S-Planner does not think it's organized by me, even tho it's under my name WTF?
How can I tell S-Planner who is "me"?
found the issue:
turns out the new S-Planner observes the default email used in Outlook to associate the "organizer".
So if you have multiple email accounts on Outlook, and the Calendar event you create is created when your default email is set to anything else other than your Exchange email, S-Planner will deem it organized by someone else.
How to fix this?
So far the only thing I can think of is using Macros to install a button, one for meeting, one for appointment, that will default the Meeting Organizer field to the Exchange Account even if the email default is set to the GMAIL account.

btw, if you have recently used added the registry code:
NewItemsUseDefaultSendingAccount = 1

Source: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/outlook-2010/multiple-accounts-and-the-default-account/
And your Default Email is set to something OTHER than your Exchange account, then your "Meeting Organizer" will be incorrect (as it will be set to another Email address) and uneditable in S-Planner.
Ok, im having a fun problem with a custom calendar widget.
If i have a rich text layer that also contains a conditional, zooper throws an error when calendar items have $ in them.
Ive tested it pretty heavily, and this breaks the widget every time, and ive tried every formatting option i can find for the conditional...
Calendar item title: "calendar test $10"
Rich text: $2>1?yes:no$ #C1TITLE#
Alternate test: $(1+1)$ #C1TITLE#
This is the simplest conditional i can find.
Even with the conditional on a separate line, it still breaks.
If i remove the conditional, the variable displays properly
Is there a way to escape an entire variable so that the $ is ignored, or am i doing something wrong with the conditional itself?
Thanks in advance.
Instead of using a rich text module use a regular text module and see if that works.
As long as your rich text module contains a conditional there's no way to escape a dollar sign. However it looks like a regular text module doesn't have the problem with dollar signs in variables that rich text modules do.
Thanks for confirming that its not just my system.
Unfortunately, not being able to color code the calendar widget makes it almost completely useless.
On the plus side, apparently adding a conditional like this also causes zooper to process Bbcode passed in from tasker variables. So i can use tasker to process out/escape the offending characters, and generate the widget text there.
Its turning into a really ugly workaround though, since tasker doesnt handle calendar data well.
Is there an official place to make requests/bug reports, or should i just send the zooper devs an email?
so i have read tonnes of tutorials on creating zooper unread message/ email, counters. i also i know how to turn sms/email text (and specify subject, sender, content) to speech or flash in Tasker.
so i feel like i should be able to make sms or email notifications appear on zooper widget, but can't figure it out. i dobt just want a plus 1 variable for a counfer, i want the text from the message.
does any one know how to do this.?
