How do I change event colours on the Calendar?
Use the Palette Manager to assign a colour to each form's calendar dates, enter exact colour values or revert to the default.
Key Points
To change event colours, open the Calendar from the left-hand section menu and click Palette Manager in the top-right corner.
The palette manager lists the Forms that have date fields (such as expiry or review dates) set up to show on the calendar. Each Form already has a default colour.
Click the Edit icon on the Form, choose a colour (enter an RGB, HSL or Hex value, or drag in the colour picker), then click the tick icon to save. The new colour applies straight away.
To go back to the default colour, click the X icon next to the colour setting.
If you can't see Palette Manager, you don't have the right calendar permissions. Ask your system administrator to add them.
Palette manager
The palette manager lets you visually customise how different calendar items appear by assigning colours to specific forms. This makes it easier to identify important dates and events at a glance.
Accessing the palette manager
Navigate to the Calendar in the left-hand section menu. Once loaded, look to the top-right corner of the screen and click Palette Manager to open it.
If the Palette Manager button is not visible, you do not currently have the correct calendar permissions enabled. Contact your system administrator to have these added.
Understanding the form list
Once open, you will see a list of forms showing a form ID and form name for each entry. These forms come from within your FlowLogic system and contain date-based fields such as expiry dates or review dates. Those date fields must be configured in the form editor to display on the calendar. Each form already has a default colour assigned. You can search for a specific form using the search field if needed.
Changing a colour
To update the colour for a form, follow these steps:
1Click the Edit icon on the far right of the form you want to update.
2Click the colour selection box that appears. You can enter an exact RGB, HSL, or Hex value, or drag within the colour picker to select a shade freehand.
3Click the tick icon on the far right to save your changes. The new colour is applied to the calendar view immediately.
To revert to the original default colour at any time, click the X icon next to the colour setting. This removes the custom colour and restores the default calendar appearance for that form.
