.
I need some help with the tkremind calendar display in Fedora-31.
Perhaps someone else is familiar with it and can offer a solution or an
alternative to tkremind. All I need is a calendar format similar to a
monthly paper calendar that I can list appointments on some days,
Sometimes a medical appointment might be a year in the future. I don't
want pop up displays for those days, just something that looks like an
old paper calendar that might have hung on the wall.
I sent the following request to the "remind" mail list and got no
response so now here. I've been using this with Fedora over a number of
releases and it has always worked through
Fedora-29, on several different computers. Presently I an seeing this
problem on two Fedora-31 xfce workstations. It displays as I want it for
a fraction of a second and then reverts to black on white which does not
work for me.
I need to change the color of the month calendar display to present a
white foreground on a black background to accommodate my vision
problems. I have done this for some time with the following
/home/bobg/.xresources:
! Reloads .Xresources file
! $ xrdb ~/.Xresources
!
! Shows contents of all properties
! $ xrdb -query
!
! Font settings extras
Xft.dpi: 120
Xft.antialias: true
Xft.hinting: true
Xft.rgba: rgb
Xft.autohint: false
Xft.hintstyle: hintfull
Xft.lcdfilter: lcdfilter
!
! /usr/local/bin/tkremind cooperation
tkremind*Background: #000000
tkremind*Foreground: #ffffff
tkremind*activeBackground: #000000
tkremind*activeForeground: #ffffff
tkremind*highlightBackground: #00ff00
tkremind*selectBackground: #000000
tkremind*selectForeground: #ffffff
!
Note: I did not create this it was suggested to me by Poma,
<pomidorabelisima@xxxxxxxxx> in response to a request for help on the
Fedora list.
This has done what I need until Fedora-31, now the white text on a black
background calendar comes on for a few milliseconds and reverts to black
text on a white background.
Can this be fixed or perhaps there is a better method for doing it?
Any help in this will be appreciated,
Bob
