Is there a way [calendars]?

August 30, 2009 12:09:11 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

I was wondering if there is a way to have a sidebar with multiple calendars showing the months of the year in sequence... [as in picture below]. The problem with this setup is that when you reload the ObjectBar theme, all calendars show the current month. You have to manually change them when you open the theme.It would be useful if I could have a calendar sidebar! - very useful for planning, and scheduling... I guess maybe then a new widget would have to be made so it can show 6 consecutive months as in the picture. Ofcourse, the first one shows today's date and the rest follows...

I'm not sure you can get exactly what you want. 

Have you tried importing the same calendar widget several times using the content menu in Object Bar and then just changing the month of earh one?

I've used Rainlendar like you show in your scrrenshot, but you can't import that into Object Bar.

Yeah, I'm aware of Rainlendar but I want to import the sequential calendars into the ObjectBar sidebar. I want to minimize the number of exe files running on my system. The sidebar is good because programs run alongside of it and it is always in view when you need it. Rainlendar is always beneath your running applications - that's sort of a hassle to me - it seems we are not so well organized that way...

Yes, I imported the same widget 6 times but the selected months are not remembered when re-loading...

I wonder if it would be difficult to make a widget for 6 months...

There is an amazing potential in working with sidebars...

I usually run my applications in a window so I can position rainlandar whee it can be seen.

I would think that a calendar widget like you show could be done.  Why not PM one of the folks that has put up recent DX widgets and ask them.

On the reloading problem, I just put my computer into sleep mode.

Reloading means changing themes... and basically, yes, when re-starting the computer, the same thing would happen - sleep mode would be OK then... why use Rainlendar when we can do it in ObjectBar...!?
