Birthday calendar questions #134

Open Offerel opened 8 months ago

Offerel commented 8 months ago

Greetings. I stumbled across this widget in F-Droid for the first time today. Everything works quite well so far. However, I have various questions about the birthday calendar, maybe it is a bug or a feature that is not yet supported.

I synchronize my data with DavX5. I can also see entries from it in the widget. The birthdays of the contacts are also displayed. Is it possible to display the age after the birthday? At the moment it just says " has birthday". I would like to see " turns 37" or something similar. Is that possible somehow?

How can I change the color of the birthday calendar? Currently the color seems to be fixed. and in an almost unreadable grayish blue. I would have preferred to change it to orange/yellow. How can I do this?

Hello @Offerel !

  1. As far as I know, there is no information about birthday year in the Birthday calendar. See e.g. https://webapps.stackexchange.com/questions/12997/how-can-i-add-birthdays-with-automatic-age-to-google-calendar and https://www.reddit.com/r/gsuite/comments/101lp3v/family_calendar_with_birthday_displaying_ages/ for more info.

  2. Regarding changing any calendar's color please see https://github.com/andstatus/todoagenda/issues/6
