[Q] EMUI Weather widget

[Manneman32]

Has anyone got the stock Weather Widget to work with a calendar? As seen in the screenshot, the widgetpicker shows the widget to the left with a calendar-reminder... just as in Googles "At a glance". I have never gotten this to work... just the clock and the weather. Is it a leftover from a previous design that didn´t make it to release or is it supposed to work?

How did you get the round icons with the default launcher?

Made my own theme... really easy. You need an iconpack and EMUI Theme Editor.

Thanks! Finally got it to work. That theme editor app is a pain in the ass, but eventually it worked. All my icons are round now, except Google docs, slides and sheets. They stay square, even though in the icon pack I downloaded these are also round. Don't understand why. I downloaded the Pixel Pie icon pack, as I want the Pixel icons. Maybe I should try an other Pixel icon app?

How did you modify the icons in Theme Editor? If you just applied the entire pack some icons are bound to remain unchanged. However... if you choose "Select Icons Manually" you can modify those icons that are missing. Also, you can change the dynamic icons (clock, weather and calendar) but the preloaded ones are not that good. It´s better to use "current" and then choose a static icon from your iconpack.

I felt Theme Editor was a pain too... but I actually paid for the full version to get rid of all the adcrap. After that, it´s amazing.

First I installed the whole icon pack and after that I modified the remaining icons manually. It worked on all the apps. But still, even manually, the Google docs, slides and sheets apps won't change. They remain default square-ish.

That´s strange...

I don´t have any of those apps so I cant check whats wrong. You restarted the phone, right? Sometimes it helps...

Google Docs, Google slides and Google sheets are part of the pre-installed Google apps (like Chrome, Youtube etc..), so you should have those on your Mate. Or did you delete them by adb or something?

I restarted multiple times of course.

I uninstalled them from day one... use Office 365 instead.

I downloaded Google Docs and actually got the same as you... no change at all. I have to admit, it´s the first app that doesn´t change for me, and I have done this for over a year.

Make a bugreport with the author of EMUI Theme Editor

Please stick to the original question and try not to deviate too much from it.

Please read the original question by Manneman32. I am also struggling to get the calendar in the widget weather to work and it would be extrimely useful.
Thank you all

Just found it. You have to use the widget with the time in the middle and the dare beneath it. Its the most left widget in the widget chooser.
