Screenshot from Digital Clock applet.

SUMMARY
When you activate alternate calendar, Events pane also enabled. which by default contains no event. The expected behavior should be for example when you activate "Astronomical Events" and "Holidays", Event section enabled. This is obviously very minor thing but improves user experience.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Configure Digital Clock applet
2. Go to Calendar section
3. Activate Alternate Calendar
4. Choose any "Calendar system" (e.g. Chinese Lunar Calendar)

OBSERVED RESULT
big square "No events for today" which uses plenty of space.

EXPECTED RESULT
Events pane disabled when you just only activate Alternate Calendar.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Arch Linux 
KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.8.0
Qt Version: 6.8.1
Kernel Version: 6.12.1-zen1-1-zen (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
There is a positive thing, when this pane enabled and that is additional calendar info. but It is big space for little information. (refer to attachment).

This also affects me, please consider adding an option to hide Events, it occupies too much space in small screen but displays nothing.
