Thunderbird/Lightning's "Today Pane" is perfect for the mail app, but there doesn't appear to be a way to access the Google Calendar after the appropriate add-ons are installed

Chosen solution

Google calendar tab is a browser windows in a Thunderbird tab. Exactly as if you had it in firefox, edge or chrome. so forget having that show anything anywhere other that in the tab.

it would probably be a good idea to uninstall it as it is not used by the other two and will only muddy the waters.

Google Calendar is in a Thunderbird tab, the calendar synchronizes and works perfectly...just cannot be accessed in the "Today Pane" (Google Calendar Tab, Provider for GC and of course Lightning are installed add-ons)
