I have a global that changes colour on day change.. at least it should but it won’t actually change colour until I open the widget config briefly.
I’m certainly no coder but I kind of understand why this happens but is there a way to force the change automatically?
My formula looks something like this:
$if(df(EEE)=mon,#111111*,*
df(EEE)=tue,#222222)$**
Grateful for any suggestions!
Hi @Williams ,
Try the following tips:
The formula used to change the color, based on the weekday short name:
$gv(tc(low,df(EEE)))$
I hope this would help.
Did you set the KWGT app battery to “Unrestricted” in your phone settings?
Using df(EEE) = mon will break the widget if the system language changes. Use day numbers instead—df(e) outputs 1 for Monday, 2 for Tuesday, etc. It works globally on any language.
Your corrected formula should look like this:$if(df(e)=1, #FF111111, df(e)=2, #FF222222, #FF333333)$
@Baju_Santiko thank you I will try this! 
@MaxP I have unrestricted setting on and everything else works and changes as it should (I have other stuff changing with days too). Thanks I hadn’t realised about the English day names! 
Ok, another problem I think I’m about to have 
that’s somewhat related to this..
I have created a font with “images” containing current weekday and if I use EEE to point to a specific image (letter) it won’t work unless english but if I use day number (e) there’s a problem when week is set to start on Sunday vs Monday right? I hope you understand how i mean..
0=Sat 1=Sun 2=Mon? This is driving me crazy the numbers corresponding to correct weekdays make no sense to me.
EDIT. I’m not sure but I think I got it now.. 
Here’s the setup I’m working on and you can see where I use weekdays to change color and “image”.
Hi @Williams ,
You can set your preferred First day of the week in the app settings.
I hope this would help.
Thanks for the fast reply!
You can use $df(f) — ISO day of week (number, 1 = Monday).
@MaxP awesome thank you!
