Calendar active day highlighting looks "wrong" #1444

Open pigeonflight opened 8 years ago

pigeonflight commented 8 years ago

The calendar widget's approach to highlighting the current day "feels" incomplete

Current calendar widget active day: image

Possible update to active day: image this example "feels" better. I'm not prescribing the solution above as THE solution. This requires someone to spend a bit of time "feeling" out the best representation for an active day. Will require a bit of a "design eye".

This is very much about feel and aesthetics.

+1 for improving that. For my taste, I'd remove the square alltogether and only work with circles. They look nicer, based on your suggestion. But your suggestion is definitely a big improvement.

+1, @thet. We should try to keep forms as simple as possible so they're easier to customize and leave more room for overlaying details, e.g. today with event, previous/next month with event etc.

Can someone help me as to how to access the calendar widget's css code? I'm a beginner, and I'm having a hard time locating the package.

pigeonflight commented 8 years ago

@janga1997 this is a bit tricky if you're an absolute beginner. You'll firstly need to add a new calendar portlet and then you can track down the code using a combination of chrome devtools inspector and searching through the packages for a matching string.

@pigeonflight ,thanks for the reply. Are their any bugs that beginners could try their hand with? I am running late with the gsoc dates.
