Default calendar: nextDaysRelative not working

[evroom]

Default calendar: the nextDaysRelative parameter seems to not work.
The timeformat remains absolute for events on today and tomorrow.

$ grep version /home/admin/MagicMirror/package.json
	"version": "2.30.0-develop",

nextDaysRelative
If this is set to true, the appointments of today and tomorrow are displayed relatively,
even if the timeformat is set to absolute.

timeFormat: "absolute",
nextDaysRelative: false,

timeFormat: "absolute",
nextDaysRelative: true,

can you post config please
this is develop pulled down when? (just checking)

Did the git pull on approx. Sat 26 Oct 10:45:00 CEST 2024.

config.js (removed personal entries):

[sdetweil]

nextDaysRelative is only for full day events AND timeFormat : "absolute" according to the code

you only showed duration events, not full day

[evroom]

Okay, that is not mentioned in the documentation.

But indeed that is what it does:

[sdetweil]

i think its encoded in the name
next DAYS relative

[evroom]

For a Sherlock Holmes like you perhaps :-)
It wasn't clear for a regular user like me.
I read next days as today, tomorrow, day after tomorrow.
The text narrowed this down to today and tomorrow.

Opened this anyway:
MagicMirrorOrg/MagicMirror-Documentation#267

Please close this issue (#3603) when it is meant to be for fullday events only.
Otherwise the issue will address the fact that it is not working non-fullday events events.

[sdetweil]

relative only matters for full day events

Saturday 16:00-18:00 displayed as Today
and
Sunday, 16:00-18:00 displayed as Tomorrow

seem illogical to me

go fishing w Bob, Oct 26
and
spend the day w Sue, Oct 27

make me try to envision when those days are ( today is saturday, some day of the month)

Today and Tomorrow clear it up instantly

With timeFormat: "relative" you'll get:

Makes sense to me.

So if I get the same result with timeFormat: "absolute" and nextDaysRelative then I think that would be nice.

But when 'we' leave it be, then it would be nice for a re-wording in the calendar document just make it more clear.

PS

timeFormat: "relative",
dateFormat: "ddd MMM D - HH:mm",
dateEndFormat: "ddd MMM D - HH:mm",
fullDayEventDateFormat: "ddd MMM D",
showEnd: true,
showEndsOnlyWithDuration: true,
nextDaysRelative: false

Does showEnd apply to timed events too, or only to fullday event ?
Because with the above settings, I do not see the date end.
All my latest testing was only done with timeFormat: "absolute", whereas my "production" MagicMirror uses relative (which I need to give a second thought).

[sdetweil]

absolute and releative produce different results

Does showEnd apply to timed events too, or only to fullday event ?

see #3602

fixed in test version
I have just updated the doc (develop branch) for nextDaysRelative and showEndsOnlyWithDuration
