[Q] Trying to display first event from specific calendar - Zooper Widget General

I've been stumped on this one for a while. I'm making a module that displays the first event from a specific calendar.
So far, I've been able to identify whether or not the first event is from that calendar using it's color. However, if the first event in the calendar isn't that color, nothing will display.
Code:
$#C0COLOR#=#ffc2c2c2?C0TITLE$
Is there a way to identify the first event of a certain color (calendar)?

If you only want to display the events from a specific calendar, easiest way would be to select only that one for the widget (option is on the main widget edit screen). Then #C0TITLE# automatically is the next event of that calendar. If you want to display events from multiple calendars, then you sadly are out of luck. There is no build-in way to select a specific event from a specific calendar out of multiple.
If you are proficient enough with Tasker, you might be able to select the event there and then post it to Zooper.

Hmm, that wouldnt be sufficient. I have some experiene with Tasker, but not sure how I would go about doing that. Do you think you could guide me in the general direction?

Sorry but I'm not that good in Tasker myself, so I can't help you with this.

[Q] Change the default reminder time for calendar events?

Not sure where best to post this, so hope this is the right place. The default reminder time for calendar events is 15 minutes. Can the default be changed rather than having to manually edit each event I add in my phone? Or is this another example of MS locking down most settings on an otherwise great OS?
I looked and looked for you... no success. Sorry, but I believe this will be another one of those "wait for update" features.
Set default calendar reminder to none.

You can change it from your desktop. Log in to Google, click on calendar, and where it has your your calendar name and Tasks below it (could be different on yours). If you select the drop down arrow, you can select a different color. This will sync to your phone also.

Thanx, that answers my question on how to change the overall color on my calendar, but im still looking for a way/an app that gives me diffrent colors for each event like on my brower's calendar.
up.
If you wanted a widget, you could try Simple Calendar widget
No they were right, go via the web to your Google calendar and pick the event and you can change the color of just that event. I've done it before so I know it works. I even have separate calendars with different colors too.

Is it possible to specify what google calender i want to pull events from? I cant seem to see any parameters that specify the calender source.
Thanks

You should find a "Calendar to display" option right above the scaling option on the main screen when you open a widget. There you can select from which calendar the events for this widget are pulled. This is for the whole widget, a configuration for a single module is not available.
haha thanks. Cant believe i missed that.
How set a date
Add a custom text with the date bb codes

Calendar Fields

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

Shortcut to Calendar Event from Widget

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!
A.
