Topic: closed.Background color seems to be wrong with multiple items same day

I have discovered that a day background color takes on the defined background color for the 1st item, when there are multiple items.

I would have thought that the background color would only color in the "time slots" involved, rather than the entire box.


If I have an event from 7:00pm to 7:29pm and a different event from 7:30pm to 7:59pm
and each of the events use a DIFFERENT background color, i would assume that I should get a "stripe" for the first event and a different stripe for the second event.

Instead the entire box is colored with the color from the first event, and the second event lays down a stripe (as expected)  for the second event.

What is it supposed to do?  Am I correct in that each event should only color a stripe? (unless it was an all day event.)

Re: closed.Background color seems to be wrong with multiple items same day

Normally events (just the event time slot) are shown in the color of their category, so a colored "stripe" for each event.
The Day color check box on the Edit Category page, will color the whole day in the color of the event. This is meant to mark special days, like, for example, public holidays, birthdays, etc.
