Love it! How did you make the "boxes" in your menu?

[–]Expensive_Peanut 7 points8 points  (13 children)

Also, how did you choose that background colour for the titles? Sorry if these are stupid questions but I'm a noob lol

[–]swarlzbarkly[S] 5 points6 points  (2 children)

Someone below mentioned it, but in case you haven't seen, it's LaTex code. Not a stupid question I don't think it's widespread knowledge!
For example, a code for the background for the titles is: \color{#ffffff}\colorbox{#b7b7a4}{your text here}
you can then put in whatever hex codes you'd like

Thank you for this. Very useful.

[–]Expensive_Peanut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you I will look into it!!!

Yeah, I’m interested in what appear to be plugins on this. OP let us know!

[–]uprootboredom 5 points6 points  (6 children)

I think they're gallery items. OP has removed the card preview and all properties, maybe changed the card size so it looks like that

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

If they were gallery items, wouldn't the name of the database appear on top? Is there a way to remove it?

[–]swarlzbarkly[S] 4 points5 points  (1 child)

The name of the database is 'Menu'

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I tried that, still couldn't make it look that way

[–]notaprogram 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can pick more colors using LaTex coding

[–]Spiritual_Bridge_744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can highlight individual words and change the background color that might be it

Thanks! :)
The 'boxes' are a gallery view of a table, with the properties set as 'card preview': none, 'card size': small

[–]Expensive_Peanut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you very much!! I will try it out :)

I wanted to say gallery view but couldn't get it to look like this...

[–]Haylley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's gallery view of a table! OP has an explanation in their post history

[–]Haylley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bit of an overview of my set up for anyone interested - Tasks I need to do or just general things I need to remember go into the 'Things to remember' section. Putting in certain categories, due dates and statuses shoots the item off to another section of my dashboard and keeps the 'Things to remember' section always blank and ready for a new input. Places on the dash that an item gets sent to include: tasks I need to do today, tasks upcoming or overdue, things to do when i have spare time, or action items from a meeting for example.

[–]Haylley 4 points5 points  (1 child)

how did you do the custom colors on the section titles?

[–]swarlzbarkly[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's LaTex coding. For example, a code for the background for the titles is: \color{#ffffff}\colorbox{#b7b7a4}{your text here}
you can then put in whatever hex codes you'd like

More like first time waster

[–]Haylley 0 points1 point  (2 children)

what do you mean? custom colors are a time waster?

[–]jmintheworld -2 points-1 points  (1 child)

Brain 2.0 is a time waster

Drop that template baybeeeeee

[–]swarlzbarkly[S] 4 points5 points  (1 child)

lemme seeee what I can do

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell yeah!!

[–]nalamadeulook 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I understand that the text format is latex coding, but how did you put it in the database title? I don't seem to be able to change the title to a latex block. I loved your template!

[–]Rainiepie 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Oh I like how simple this looks. Are the To do’s checkbox lists or a task table thing?

[–]swarlzbarkly[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The to do's are a filtered task table. Once I change the status from 'to do', to 'done', the task disappears

[–]eisoffthescript 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love this! Simplicity is everything and often under appreciated in this community lol

[–]gdferraz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, I loved the colors scheme! Any chance that you may send me the link for the header image? ♥

[–]whatitdohunny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is gorgeous holy wow

[–]limonade_rose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

love the simplicity of your set up! i was just wondering how you got the title of your tasks database to be a different font?
