Calendar colors

SamStam

I’m new to this app. I’ve found few videos, no tutoral, and the help documentation seems inadequate for newbies.

I searched this forum to find out how to change default colors on calendar events on the Windows app. The current blue background with white font color is very hard to read.

Is there a solution to this?

Hi SamStam. Yes, we’re working on creating more videos and tutorials. We just published this article from one of our users just minutes ago:

We have an extensive theming system for changing colors and layouts, but we had not thought to add calendar colors into it. That should be pretty quick to do so we’ll try to add that soon.

When syncing with Google Calendar it takes the calendar color settings from Google Calendar, but we should have a way to theme the default color.

Jay We have an extensive theming system for changing colors and layouts, but we had not thought to add calendar colors into it.

The themeing system IS pretty extensive but there are a handful of other graphic elements besides this one which lack controls and prevent a full, proper, “skinning” of the app. I created a “Grey” theme because I found both Light and Dark too harsh for prolonged use (I sometimes spend all day in Legend). It’s almost perfect but there’s a few places where the old bones are peeking through because there’s simply no control available.

@Jay If you’re interested in knocking those out along with this calendar color issue, I can send you a list of the ones I’ve identified. It’s only like 5 of them, I think.

Thank you. I use Edge addons to make the default Google calendar easier to read. I’m looking forward to you adding this capability to Legend. Please keep me informed.

I’m currently using Any.do. They have the same problem. I’ll switch to Legend if you get this fixed and if I can learn how to import from Any.do.

I’m a bit confused. Will the theming system be updated to change calendar text colors and event colors? If so, when?
