Widget settings

The Lunar calendar widget has no widget-specific settings (This widget uses its standard settings). It inherits its font size, color theme, and card background from the overall signage content design; see Widgets and the places they go.

Because traditional almanac terms have no standard translated equivalents, the almanac content always renders in Chinese regardless of the board’s display language.

Scope and limitations

  • Gregorian date and time: To display the standard solar date and weekday, use the Today design of the Clock widget.
  • Typography and theme: Font size, color theme, and widget background are controlled by the overall signage content design. See Widgets and the places they go.
