Calendar

Calculation is based on a table of 1x7. You will need a horizontal stack group containing 7 overlap groups, indexed 0 to 6.

Global Formulas

To have the days reflect the first day of the week selected in the settings, create a global text with this formula:

gv(weekday)

$df(E,r+df(e,r+(si(mindex,1)+1)+d)+d)$

Making the Table

• Make a horizontal stack group;

• in it create an overlap group;

• inside add a regular text with $gv(weekday)$ as text formula.

Just copy and paste the overlap group 6 more times and the days will be generated automatically.

Additionally, you can highlight the current day text by using this formula to show a different text color:

$if(gv(weekday)=df(E), COLOR0, COLOR1)$

Calculation is based on a table of 6x7, so you will have a vertical stack group containing 6 horizontal stack groups, each will have 7 overlap groups. Therefore a total of 42 overlap groups indexed 0 to 41.

Global Formulas

To find the index position of the day 1 of this month based on the settings (index 0 - 6), create a global text with this formula:

gv(first)

$df(e,r+df(d)+d)$

To find the index position of the current day of this month, create a global text with this formula:

gv(current)

$gv(first)+df(d)-1$

To get the index position of each cell, create a global text with this formula:

gv(index)

$si(mindex,1)+si(mindex,2)*7$

To get the number for each day of the calendar, create a global text with this formula:

gv(day)

$if(gv(index) < gv(current), df(d, r+(gv(current)-gv(index))+d),

gv(index) > gv(current), df(d, a+(gv(index)-gv(current))+d),

df(d))$

Making the Calendar Table

• Make a vertical stack group;

• in it create a horizontal stack group;

• in it create an overlap group;

• inside add a text item with $gv(day)$ as text formula.

Just copy and paste the overlap group 6 times and then copy and paste the horizontal stack group 5 times. The days will be generated automatically.

Additionally, you can highlight the current day text by using this formula to show a different text color:

$if(gv(index) = gv(current), COLOR0, COLOR1)$

You can also use that formula to show an indicator for the current day.

We need another global for the position of the last day, to compare the days' positions according to it.

Global Formula

To find the index position of the last day of this month based on the settings, create a global text with this formula:

gv(last)

$gv(first)+df(o)-1$

Assigning a Different Color to the Numbers

To make the numbers of the previous month and next month a different color, use this formula:

color formula

$if(gv(index) = gv(current), COLOR0,

gv(index) < gv(first), COLOR2,

gv(index) > gv(last), COLOR2,

COLOR1)$

Hiding the Groups

It's easy to display the monthly progress (by changing the color of the past days). We need a simple switch and to change the color formula for the day.

Global Switch

For the user-controllable switch, create a simple global switch called Progress.

gv(progress)

Changing the Color formula for the Numbers

We already know the day of each cell. To calculate the number of events on each day we also need the month (different in the first and last rows) and year (can change if the calendar is displaying December or January) of that day. We will also add a full date global for convenience.

Global Formulas

To get the month of each cell, create a global text with this formula:

gv(daymonth)

$if(gv(index) < gv(first), df(M,r1M),

gv(index) > gv(last), df(M,a1M),

df(M))$

To get the year of each cell, create a global text with this formula:

gv(dayyear)

$if(gv(index) < gv(first) & df(M)=1, df(y,r1y),

gv(index) > gv(last) & df(M)=12, df(y,a1y),

df(y))$

To get the date of each cell, create a global text with this formula:

gv(daydate)

$dp(gv(dayyear)+y+gv(daymonth)+M+gv(day)+d0h0m0s)$

To calculate the number of events on each day, create a global text with this formula:

gv(dayevent)

$ci(ecount, gv(daydate)) + ci(acount, gv(daydate))$

Making the Indicator

We will need more globals, more specifically globals from the Events blueprint. First a blank text global for the chosen date, a global that calculates the number of events on that date and another global for a chosen event. Then we also need globals for events' info.

Global Formulas

To hold the chosen date, add a text global:

gv(date)

To calculate the number of events on the chosen date, add a text global:

gv(events)

$ci(ecount, gv(date)) + ci(acount, gv(date))$

To hold the index number of the chosen event, add a text global:

gv(event)

To pick the chosen date you could simply use gv(daydate), but then that date will remain set until you pick another one, even when the day changes (displayed events in agenda will be from past days). So I suggest you go one step further and make it reset every time you tap on today's group. For that add a text global:

gv(touchday)

$if(df(D, gv(daydate)) = df(D), "$dp()$", gv(daydate))$

Events' Globals

Their code has pretty much the same structure, so this example will contain just the title of the event.

gv(title)

$ci(title, gv(event), gv(date))$

Adding Touch Actions

Make sure the base of the Day group has the same index as the other data and add a touch action to it:

• Action = Toggle Globlal Switch

• Switch = gv(date)

• Text = $gv(touchday)$

Add another touch action to reset gv(event) to 0 every time you switch dates:

• Action = Toggle Global Switch

• Switch = gv(event)

• Text = 0

NOTE: The touch area must have the same index as the day number, events indicators and forecast info.

Making the Event Group

This part is the same as before with a few key differences.

Global Formulas

The Event global is not blank:

gv(event)

$si(mindex, 2)$

We also need another global from Agenda blueprint:

HideEvnt

$if(si(mindex) < gv(events), ALWAYS, REMOVE)$

There is NO touch action to reset gv(event) to 0 on day groups!

Making the Event Group

Like in the Agenda blueprint add a stack of multiple event groups.

• Apply HideEvnt as the visibility formula for each group.

Every event group contains more groups, each holding a piece of event's information.

• Add a text item in its own group inside the Event stack group and make it show $gv(title)$.

• Do the same for all other agenda globals.

This calendar can also have forecast globals and display the weather forecast for the next few days. What type of content to display is up to you - you can even choose to display the condition wi(cond) (but idk where you'd put it).

For reference we'll change the layout of the structure - tree (look in the app for more examples). This is to have certain contents grouped together while keeping the index identical across all formulas. It is relatively easy to do by putting the day and indicators inside more parent groups and then changing the gv(index) formula.

We'll also hide the weather groups after the forecast data ends - usually after max 14 days (why that is you can read somewhere else - calculating data further into the future is pointless).

Global Formulas

Because we'll move the data in day cells into two more groups, change the index global like so:

gv(index)

$si(mindex,3)+si(mindex,4)*7$

To get the weather icon on each day, create a global text with this formula:

gv(wicon)

$wf(icon, gv(index)-gv(current)) + ai(isday)$

To get the average temperature on each day, create a global text with this formula (I suggest you skip this one and use the maximum temperature instead):

gv(temp)

$wf(temp, gv(index)-gv(current))$

To get the maximum temperature on each day, create a global text with this formula:

gv(tempmax)

$wf(max, gv(index)-gv(current))$

To get the minimum temperature on each day, create a global text with this formula:

gv(tempmin)

$wf(min, gv(index)-gv(current))$

To hide the weather data on days with no forecast data, create a global text with this formula:

HideWthr

$if(si(mindex,1)+si(mindex,2)*7 >= gv(current) & si(mindex,1)+si(mindex,2)*7 < gv(current)+wi(pdays), ALWAYS, REMOVE)$
