It would be great to have font colour options esp with the Calendar. Black is much more visible than white.

  Hi Pooja, Jonathan, Tiffany

  Thank you for the feedback. We are currently investigating the possibility of either custom or inversion of the font colour based on the calendar block. Any updates to this functionality will be posted in our release notes.

  Kind Regards

  Mark

  I would expect an automatic inversion of the font colour would be achievable dependant upon the calendar block/event colour.

  Yes I agree, the white font with the new calendar is very hard to read. It would be great to have a choice of black font.

  Are there any updates on to whether we will be able to change the font for the block color to black? Many of our staff have agreed that the white font is very difficult to read

  We found choosing different colours for our calendar blocks to be the fastest solution, rather than waiting for a programmatic fix down the track. We now have slightly bolder/darker colours for our calendar items so that white is legible across the board.

  Example screenshot follows.

  Thank you Jonathan. We did this when the change first happened however still find it difficult to read at times. Also our calendar is very busy and we can only select really dark solid colors which limits our training categories. If we had Black font we could use different shades to differentiate the training categories which allows a far great number of options. Thanks you for you response though.

  Thanks Jonathan, I agree with Tiffany as we too have a really busy schedule with lots of one day courses which are really hard to see.

  Hey gang,

  Well sounds like we're still waiting for a proper resolution then. Initially, Mark Gilmore mentioned any updates would be documented in aXcelerate's Release Notes. But upon checking yesterday's notes, no mention of either font, colour, or calendar was made in these notes.

  Feel free to go through the previous dated notes too if you like.

  Hi All

   

  Good to see some great discussions!

   

  We are aware that this is a highly sought after feature and are continuing our investigations to determine the feasibility of implementing this change. Yesterday, our Product Manager had a meeting with one of the key developers who would be involved with this change, so it is definitely not something that has fallen off our radar.

   

  Kind Regards

  Mark
