Title: Changing calendar entries color?
Post by: Taliesyn on April 22, 2015, 11:06:47 am

I'd like to change the calendar color from the default blue to something else, but :
- I can't seem to find an option in AquaMail
- I can't change it in the Google Agenda app since it's considered as an "imported" calendar

Implemented in 1.5.7 (development build).

Long press the account -> options and folders -> Exchange options, and there they are.

That's great!

I'll be watching my apps auto-updates closely  ;)

Thank you for the quick commit, I'm really glad I got that pro key!

Hey again.

I've just switched to a Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 running Miui 7, and selecting a calendar color in Aquamail doesn't update the color in the Agenda.
Running 1.6.2.9 at the moment.

Any idea?

Is "Agenda" the built-in Calendar app?

Please try a different one, maybe Google Calendar (free in Play) -- perhaps MIUI "optimized out" support for calendar colors?

It's a documented feature of Android calendar storage, but who knows?

Yes, Agenda is the builtin Miui app, but I have the exact same behaviour with Google Agenda, despite having long-pressed my account in Aquamail and selected a color.

Ah, that's a different color.

When you long press an account -> assign color, this only changes the "color clues" for the account in Aqua Mail.

To assign Calendar colors, please:

Long press the account -> options and folders -> Exchange options. You'll see the list of your calendars (bottom half of the list).

Tap one to change its color (can be different from one calendar to the next if the account has more than one).

Duh!   :)
Now works perfectly for Google Agenda and widgets, thanks.

As a side note, the native Miui calendar ignores those colors.

Great!

They're maybe taking "be like Apple" a little too seriously :)
