Could you please make it so that Google Calendar Events copy their individual colours as set in Google?
Not having the colours match what is set in Google is annoying and confusing.
I’ve tried a few apps on Android and they all do this by default.
I’ve just come across to eM from Thunderbird in order to use the Google Calendar integration, but this implementation is not useable for calendars with many tasks a colours already set with a purpose.
No Colours? Nooooo. eM Client was so close to the perfect application for me in my small business with 18 google calendars to manage where colours are used as the primary way to identify categories of events. I was looking for a way to integrate my 10 email addresses which include iCloud and Gmail, Google calendars and some independent iCAL files and not have the cumbersome design of Outlook 365. All my iPad apps (and I have tried 6 of the best over the years) implement the google colours so I don’t understand why eM client doesn’t either. Oh well I won’t be using eM, or I’m afraid recommending it to fellow workers. So close, but missed with one small detail.
Hello,
Thank you very much for eM Client, this software is of a certain elegance: it is really very good on all levels!
On the other hand, please, can someone advise the programmers that a very small detail is missing: the colors of Google calendar don’t appear in eM Client calendar.
I think the problem is that eM Client displays the event in the color of the calendar (which is copied from Google) and does not have individual colors for events.
The exception is tags, in which case you can configure eM Client to display the event in the color of the tag.
In eM Client, if the calendar color is blue, all events in that calendar will be blue. You cannot assign different colors for each event. That is not possible in eM Client.
You can do that in Google, but you cannot do it in eM Client.
Yes, thank you for this solution, now I hesitate to put it into practice …
Remember: if you know the programmers of eM Client, please ask them if they can implement the colors of Google calendar …
I just discovered this thread. I would be absolutely ecstatic if emClient were to implement individual event colors as tags for Google Calendar. It truly is the one feature that would make it a complete experience for me.
You can assign tags to events and which have customizable colors so it’s possible to assign a custom color to specific events. Just a little more effort but not much.
Every month or so I check back here in the hope that the feature has been added to have an individual events share the same color whether created in Gmail or emClient. Ideally syncing Gmail colors and emClient tags, but any method would do that makes the calendar entries look the same in PC and phone calendars.
Is this on the development roadmap?
We support calendar colours, and tag colours, as I described above, but the function you have in web interface to give a colour to an individual event is not supported when syncing to eM Client.
