Hello.
I try to easly explain problems during preparing my own calendar on zooper.
After i add few rows/elements with callendar event with the same text format its looks great till new events will come to the list. Then margins between rows are change randomly and text looks messy changing position (top/bottom margin changes only).
When i go back to zooper setings all numbers from size and positions are not changed.
What is funny - same problem happen when i use original templates attached to Zooper.
What happen with zooper? Any ideas?
Thank you in adwance.
My device: Galaxy note 2.

I would like to have a zooper widget popup notification with the following information:
Contact Photo
Sender's name
SMS message
Reply button
.......appear when I receive an SMS.
I would like the Contact Photo to appear in a layer UNDER the circle in the top left corner of the background image (see attached image).
I tried to create a Scene in Tasker, using this Tutorial: (http://taskerfans.blogspot.com/2013/05/popup-sms-notifier-via-tasker-scene.html?m=1), but the contact photo does not show up for some reason. The Sender's # and message inside the SMS show up in the Tasker Scene, so I have created variables for that information, but I'd like to try to incorporate that into Zooper Widget. So I guess my questions are:
Can Zooper Widget be used as an SMS Popup w/ or w/out the purchase of the popup widget app?
Can Tasker variables for Contact Photo be used?
Is there some sort of SMS Popup example here on XDA that I may be able to use as a reference? Searching, but haven't found...

SMS Contact Photo Zooper Widget
So, I have already designed a widget that displays SMS count. I also have the popup widget app and have enabled a shortcut on the SMS count to open another Zooper widget.
This Zooper widget will display my last received SMS. I am having a bit of trouble displaying the Contact Photo.
I created a profile in Tasker
Profile: SMSpop
Event: Received Text
Type: Any
Task: txt pop
1. Test: Type - Contact Photo URI, Data - %SMSRF, Store Result in: %contactphoto (Continue Task after Error)
2. Plugins/Zooper Widget Pro Variable: Configuration: #TContact Photo# = %contactphoto
I have the following in the advanced parameters of the bitmap yet I am not seeing the contact photo appears. It actually does appear in the Scene I created with Tasker, but Tasker doesn't allow me accurate resizing and image placement like zooper does.
even tried w/out the bracketed b's and it still didn't work.

The problem here is, that Zooper only can load pictures from the sdcard. The path you get through the task you posted is an internal path instead, which Zooper doesn't currently support. What you would need to do is to save the picture in Tasker to the sdcard and then push that sdcard location to Zooper. Then this should work I think.

hmm. Didn't know that. Not exactly sure how I can pass that variable set for Contact Photo URI to the SD yet, but it's a start...Thanks.
Edit: Media Utilities saves coverart to internal memory and is able to display in Zooper.
/storage/sdcard0/Pictures/mu_coverart
sdcard0 being internal, of course.
Tried to copy contents listed in screenshot above, but Tasker is unable to locate that directory. Es File browser can't either. I'm rooted and should have the correct permissions.
I just made the following simple experiment: created a weather icon using Meteor Weather Icons set and set it up to show "Tomorrow's weather". And for some unexplainable reason it shows a cresent particlaly covered by a cloud.
Why does it work that way?
AFAIK, weather icons that contain nighttime elements (like cresent) are supposed to be used by entries that show "Current Weather" during night hours only. Entries, which are set up to show weather for the entire day (like "Today's Weather", "Tomorrow's Weather", "2 Days Weather" and so on), are supposed to use generic weather icons only, independent from time of day (i.e. they shall never use nightime icons).
So, is it is bug in Zooper or is it a bug induced by a bad data from weather provider? And even if it is bad data from weather provider, why doesn't Zooper catch the error and filter it out on its side?
Its just how the config for the iconset is written.

I've already contacted the developer for this reason.
The response was basically that this is how it should work...
Now I feel retarded...
Having zooper widget on your phone seemed like a good idea, it had so much potential, but now nothing happens and we're stuck with some things that make no sense.
It still has a ton of potential, but what's the point.
Just post the iconset and i will look into it.

Weather for the entire day
I have the same problem, I want entries which are set up to show weather for the entire day (like "Today's Weather", "Tomorrow's Weather", "2 Days Weather" and so on) use daily weather icons only, but that's not the way ZW works.
So I've renamed all night icons in my config file to their daily equivalents. The iconset is recognized and works, most of the time. But sometimes, after the widget updates, some icons dissapear (eg. tommorow's weather and 3 days weather), and some are still there. What to do? Here are original and my own iconsets
I'm making myself a little calendar widget because with Simple Calendar I can't seem to get it to show me a description in any of it's appearance modifications
My question is. Is there a way to view past events or events from today all day? For instance I have events on my calendar from 12am to 1am because of a calendar sync with google from another application. I can't change that but I would like to see the 12am-1am events on Wednesday all day on Wednesday
Make sense? Can Zooper do that?
One other thing I'd like to do is color the calendar title based on what the title is. Can I set a color based on the Title string? There are only 3 to choose from in my calendar
Ok, I think i've learned from research that my 1st question is not possible yet. I'm going to have to figure a way to change the events to all day
I figured out the 2nd part of the question and for those interested
Code:
[c=$#C0TITLE#=String1?#FF0000$$#C0TITLE#=String2?#00FF00$$#C0TITLE#=String3?#0000FF$]#C0TITLE#[/c]
My calendar widget no longer shows events at all. Did Google change Zoopers ability to read the calendar data?
uninstalling the calendar update fixed the issue
Dear All,
Tried searching for this with little progress. I have a very simple widget that shows an agenda-type view. It just lists the events in separate boxes with date, time and event name (as per picture).
Is there a way so that when I click on a specific event it can take me to the 'Edit event' option within my calendar? I have been toying with Tasker (yeah, didn't get far with Tasker for this!) and with different calendars to see if that make a difference (for example I find it easier to manipulate iCal over Sunrise within Zooper) but I have turned up nothing.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

All,
I've been spending a bunch of time trying to get my icons to match Yahoo (using yahoo for my data as well). Ultimately I want my widget to open yahoo weather with certain clicks and I just want everything to be cohesive in look.
So far, I was able to extract all the icons from the yahoo weather apk, and i generally have them working. However, I've noticed that Yahoo actually has many more than 16 weather types. This seems to be causing me all sorts of inconsistencies in terms of what is shown on my widget versus what is shown in the app, specifically in future forecasts for the days ahead. For example, the app shows the next 6 days as scattered thunderstorms (its florida after all). But, my widget is showing them all as full thunderstorms (different icon than the app). I can somewhat "fix" this by mapping them to scattered, but that would just break the ones who truly should be mapped to thunderstorms.
The other problem I'm having is that the future days (once its past sunset) are all changing to nightime icons instead of being locked to day versions (as it is in the app).
Anyone have experience in trying to get everything consistent? Whats the best way to address it? And, is it possible to map the full list of Yahoo data instead of just 16? Perhaps I just screwed something up in my config file when i tried it? The yahoo developer page has a list of all of them, though I have no way to tell if that's actually 100% up to date either? Looks like it was posted in 2011. How can I make the day/night versions ONLY apply to my current weather, and not future? Maybe build 2 different sets of the same icons and exclude night? Seems like a lot of work, so wondering if anyone has tackled something similar.
Thanks,
Also, i assume somewhere zooper is taking the 48 Yahoo weather conditions and mapping that down to just 16? Where / how is that done?

You will not be able to match Yahoo's weather states exactly with Zooper. As you already figured out, Zooper only knows 16 weather states, which is done to unify the states from different weather data providers to a single interface. The external states are mapped internally to these internal ones and this process can not be influenced from the user side.
As to your second question about the day/night icons: download my weather icon set here and check the included XML. It's configured to only show day/night icons for the current weather option and not the forecast variants. You should be able to transfer this to your set quite easily
Thanks!
Interesting. I didn't know zooper converted the 48 yahoo weathers to 16. What are those 16? I'm trying to do something similar to the OP but with bitmaps.

To answer my own question, and assuming this link is up to date, the 16 weather conditions of zooper are here: http://www.zooper.org/wp/archives/1155

I am facing the same problem regarding day/night icons. I downloaded your config.xml and tried to modify my existing xml based on the info in your xml, but it seems I'm doing something wrong because when I open Zooper on my phone the app is not recognizing the modified xml.
I am attaching the icon set (including the original xml) without any modification. I would appreciate if you let me know exactly what to modify in the xml.
Thanks

I rather prefere if you upload your edited version so I can check it for errors and tell you what you did wrong. That way you know what to do when the next icon pack comes around
