The template can just call a UI only field on your calendar model. I’d recommend using a a Case Function in that UI Only formula field.

Read the docs about Case Function here.

https://docs.skuid.com/latest/en/skuid/formula-function.html#text-manipulation-and-analysisThe formula might look like this.

CASE(

  {{OwnerId}},

  "Id1", "Color1",

  "Id2", "Color2",

  "Color3")

The last value is the default value in case none of the user values are found.

The Color can be Hex, or an named html color value

WARNING: This solution will be fragile and will require you to edit the skuid page every time you have a new team member who needs a special color. I’d recommend adding a custom field to user object. (with a default value). This “User Color” field could be included in your skuid model for the calendar and would be used in that template.

Worked perfectly, thanks Rob.

Separate but related note, is there a way to hide the times at the top of the calendar entries on Week view? I changed the Event template but it still shows the time regardless of the entry there.

Hi Allison! I work a good bit on the calendar as PM, so this is good feedback - it looks like removing the times is not currently supported, but that could be an enhancement in a future release. I’ll make a note. If you’ve got a minute, could you give some of the reasoning as to why you’d like to remove the time labels?

@mattb - Does DSS Calendar-Event-Font size control the font size for the calendar events (“boot camp” in my screenshot above)? I’ve adjusted the size here but it doesn’t seem to impact live calendar?

@Allison It should, but it looks like this is a bug. I’ve repro’d in an internal environment and will work with our engineering team to get it fixed. Thank you!
