Changing color code in a group calendar mode by a workflow

I have team calendar which i have used for leave approval.
I am using weekgroup of the calendar view.
I have applied the workflow for pending and approval for each leave to line manager.
I have used a field which i am using for finding out whether or not it is approved.
Now depending on that the colour code should change in the group calendar view. Is it possible

Hi,
As I understand, you want to change the color in the calendar based on the field value by workflow.
Workflow cannot change the color in the calendar.
As a workaround, you can add custom code in the content edit web part to achieve it. If the value of the field equals a certain value, you can change the color.
The article below is about how to create a color coded calendar by javascript in SharePoint 2013, it also can work in SharePoint 2010

Can i change colors for events in the calendar?

Can I change colors for different events in Calendars on Ipad 2?

Philly - I always respect your opinion and what you have to say but please hear me out.

I see one iCal window and that makes me conclude that I have one calendar with multiple event types.
You understand how the app works and how to create calendars. As I pointed out - I explained to one user that you have to tap the Calendar button in the upper left corner and then select the calendars that you want to view. In fact, if you have accidentally tapped Hide All Calendars - you see no events.
I totally understand what you are saying and I rarely take an argumentative approach in this forum, but what I am trying to point out to the OP is that you cannot create different colors for "events" in one single calendar.
For instance, if you have one calendar called "Home" and that is the one calendar that you use - if Billy has a soccer game at 6:00 PM, Jessica has band practice at 7:00 PM and you have a bridge club meeting (I'm stuck for another idea at the moment ) at 7:30 PM - and you want all of these "Events" to appear in different colors within the same calendar - it cannot be done.
Sometimes I think this is what users want to do - differentiate the different "Events" within a single calendar - and that cannot be done - at least AFAIK.
I didn't mean to cause confusion nor was I trying to complicate things. I just thought that I was giving a complete answer as to how the feature works.
After all - I could have just used the "please get the iPAD user guide" line. I just love that response.

Address Book: Color code the names , groups ?

Is there way to color code the names so you know which groups they belong to?
I.e. I want to create bunch of groups and put names in them but color these names so that when I look at the library I will now which group they belong to.
thanks in advance

Rohit,
no, this is not possible (and probably wouldn't be even feasible - since a contact can be member of more than one group, color-coding would be a little difficult)
However, you can check which group(s) a contact belongs to by pressing the alt/option button on your keyboard with the contact select in the Address Book.

Photoshop keeps changing color code

When I open the color picker in photoshop CS4 I enter the color code fd02c5. For some reason it won't let me use that exact color and keeps automatically changing it to d54599. It has done this before with other colors.
How can I get it to use that exact color and stop changing it?

Your doc is CMYK and fd02c5 is outside the gamut (available colors) of your CMYK color space. Try working in sRGB or pick a color within the CMYK gamut.

HT2500 Can you color code contacts or groups so that it shows in the inbox/message?

Are you able to color code contacts & groups so that it shows up in "their" color in the inbox & message?
Thanks!

Set up a rule (Mail preferences -> Rules) for something like:
If From contains [the sender's email address]
Perform the following actions:
Set Color of Message -> Background/text -> Color
You can also set the first criteria to "Sender is a member of group" with the group name, or have multiple criteria, as suits your purpose.

How to change colors for record working time calendar

Hi,
I would like to change the colors in the calendar displayed in record working time based on some conditions.
How do i do that is there any BADI associated with that
Thanks
Bala Duvvuri

Hi Bala ,
Yes its possible to change that .
You need to implement BADI for this ..
BADI name : "PT_ABS_REQ"
In the BADI "PT_ABS_REQ" interface "IF_EX_PT_ABS_REQ" you can find the method
"SET_CALENDAR_COLOR" in that you can set the colure for the Absent type ......
Adjust Colors of Calendar and Team Calendar
Functionality
You can use this method to change the colors in the team calendar.
In the standard system, the different statuses for requests have different colors. You can use this method to differentiate the colors of requests depending on the following aspects:
Status of requests (status)
Action that an employee has executed: new request, delete, change (UIA operation)
Subtype of absence (SUBTY)
Full-day or partial-day absence (BEGMT, where BEGMT = 0 signifies a full-day absence)
Application mode ( mode). You specify the application mode in the Select Employees for the Team Calendar IMG activity.
Color Display of Status of Leave Requests(COLORS_ACTIVE). You specify this status in the Specify How Leave Is Displayed and Default Values IMG activity.
Available Colors
You have a choice of 16 colors. The 16 colors are hard coded, that is, you cannot change them or add other ones.
The available colors are stored with their RGB value as constants of the CL_PT_REQ_CONST class. Use these constants if you want to change the colors.
Notes
If you change the colors in the team calendar, you should also adapt the legend accordingly. You can use the Adjust Legend for Calendar and Team Calendar method to do so.
Hope this work!!!

How do you change color of an event in a calendar in ical

how do I change the color of an EVENTt in ical

boivinr wrote:
PLEASE APPLE ADD COLOR TAGGING TO EVENTS!!!
Um, color tagging events has always been a feature of iCal. Go into iCal. In the upper left-hand corner it says "Calendars." Go under "File" and create a new Calendar--iCal will give it a color, but you can change that. If you do this in iCloud, you simply pick "edit" and click on the color, and you've a huge range of choices as to what color you want it to be.
So, now you've got calendars--the family events calendar (named "Family") the "Days Off" calendar and the "Appointments" calendar...each with their own color. You can see them all when you click on "calendars" there on the left-hand side. And, in your case, can create calendars for each person at your work to know when they'll be on or off work. "John's calendar" and "Susan's calendar."
You create an event, and among the choices you have (date, time, alert, notes) is one that says: "Calendar." It will show the default calendar with it's color, but offer you up and down arrows to pick a different calendar (you can change the default calendar, by the way, under preferences). You use those arrows and pick "John" calendar and the "event" of John being on-shift from 10pm-10am on December 12th appears on the calendar in orange. Create an event and give it the "Susan Off" calendar and her time off will appear in green. Give several events the "appointment" calendar and they'll all be blue (or whatever colors you've picked for these things).
Yes?
Now whether you can sync your iCal to Google and match up the colors is a whole other story. But you can--and have for as long as I can remember---color code your iCal events.

Color code groups in address book

Is there any way to color code groups so that when mail comes in I know to associate it with a specific group. I was able to do this in entourage but have switched to apple mail.

As already described, create a new Rule in Mail.app (Mail -> Preferences -> Rules), that reads:
if (ANY) of the following conditions are met:
(Sender is member of group) (xxxxxxxxx)
Perform the following actions:
(Set Color) (Of Background (or text as you prefer) to (Any color you wish)
Save the rule.
Before doing that, you might want to create a few Groups (or Smart Groups) in Address Book with the people you want to color.
Hope this helps.

Oracle form query mode does not change color to blue

Hi, I have created a custom form and using query mode in it. However on hitting F11, the record does not change to blue, instead it turns white. Can someone please guide me as to what I should be doing to get this right?
Thanks for your responses.

The fact that it doesn't change color when you "Enter Query" mode tells me your Custom Form does not conform to Oracle Application Programming Standards. I recommend you visit the Oracle Applications Documentation web site, choose your EBS version and scroll down and look at the Oracle Applications User Interface Standards for Forms-Based Products and Oracle Applications Developer's Guide to ensure your Custom Form conforms to Oracle Standard.
Also, I suggest you always use the TEMPLATE.fmb (or if you can't find this form, use the APPSTAND.fmb) as the starting point of any Custom Form. This will ensure you have the minimum required objects and code in your form.
Hope this helps,
Craig B-)

Calendar Appointments Unexpectedly Changing Color

In our office we are using Outlook 2010 (v14.0.7116.5000) with Exchange accounts on Exchange Server 2010 (v14.02.0387.000), and we share calendars between staff members. We have specifically assigned category colors for certain appointments.
We have one shared calendar where appointments will randomly change color. The appointments are always red on this calendar when viewed from the owner's account. But when other staff members view this shared calendar, the appointments will sometimes
turn yellow (even though the category still says red.) This issue seems to appear at random, surfacing for a few days and then returning to normal. The color changing only affects certain users at any one time, as the appointments will appear yellow
for certain staff and then red for others. And this issue is isolated to only one shared calendar; we have no issues with the 30+ other shared calendars. Any ideas what could be going only?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
-Anthony

Hi Anthony,
There is no feature in Exchange side to manage calendar view in Outlook. Since the issue only happens to one specific shared calendar and specific users, I suggest we can ask a question in
Outlook form
for further troubleshooting.
Personal suggestion, please start the specific users' Outlook in safe mode to have a try.

Are colors for group calendars global or defined for each user.

If you change the color of a group calendar in iCal, does it change for everyone who is using that calendar or just change for the local user who changed it? I'd like to change the color of some group calendars I have in iCal at work, but I don't want to affect everyone else subscribed to that calendar.
Thanks!

I think the colors only change on your machine. But try it and post the result. Enquiring minds want to know!

Changing the Color of a subscribed iCal calendar

Is there any way to change the color of an iCal calendar that I subscribe to? The iCal subscription is from another Mac User (iCloud) who published the calendar using a color that I use for my calendar and I'd rather change hers (on my Mac) than change mine.
Doing a "get info" shows the color but it's 'grey'd out' so I can't change it.
Thanks

I can't tell you why this is happening, but I can tell you that I admin many different iCloud users. Some subscribed calendars' colors can be changed in iCal, some are greyed out. It can't make any sense of it yet. However, If you want to change the colors of these calendars, you may do so by logging into your account in iCloud. Get to the calendars and hit EDIT. You will see colored dots next to each calendar. You can then change the color there. Log out and refresh in ical. The colors will (eventualy) be changed. Hope this helps.

Manually change color of Exchange calendar in iCal?

Good evening. Got kind of an odd problem...and not really sure when it became an issue, although I think it happened after I upgraded to Lion. But for whatever reason I cannot get to the 'Get Info' part of one of my calendars that is an Exchange calendar. I can right-click on all of my iCloud calendars and get to the get info section in order to change colors, sharing, etc, but when I click the get info option on my Exchange calendar, nothing happens.
Not sure when this became the case, because I know I used to be able to change the color.
Was wondering if maybe there was a preference file that I could manually edit in order to change the color, or if someone else has run into this and found a solution.
Thanks a bunch.

Hi guys,
"googling" I found this applescript:
tell application "iCal"
set color of calendar "Calendar" to choose color default color {0, 0, 0}
end tell
Waiting for an Apple fix, you can use this. It's wok like a charm!

Is there a way to change the font size and color of text in the calendar app?

Does anyone know a way of changing the font size and color of text in the calendar app that comes with the iPad 2? It is very hard to see the small gray numbers on the calendar. Thanks

Looks like you didn't get a reply on your post, but it is still a problem. Font size is supposedly changeable via "Accessibility" in Settings, but it doesn't work. You can turn on "Zoom".

How do i get my events to change colors when i add new ones in my calendar

How do I get my events to change colors when I add a new event in my calendar?

When you add an event and you see the heading "Calendar", do you see a name to the right of it such as "Work"? If you tap on the heading "Calendar" does it show you a list of calendars?
I'm basing this on my experience using iCal on a Mac to sync with my iPad. I created a number of calendars on the Mac and assigned them different colors. Those appear on my iPad. I don't know how to create additional calendars on the iPad alone - I must create them in iCal or MobileMe then they show up on the iPad. Are you using a Mac or MobileMe?
