I find the SharePoint calendar options lacking a lot, but I'm hoping it's just a limitation of Foundation or maybe I'm just doing something wrong.

I've got a test calendar that looks like this: enter image description here

I like the color coding, but when I view one of the calendars being overlayed, the events are displayed in the default color: enter image description here

I think that if I could just change each calendar's default color to match the assigned color from the overlay view, it would go a long way to improving the experience.

What I Have Access To:

  • SharePoint Designer 2013
  • Admin Permissions

I'm not a programmer... though I'm not afraid to use some code. If I need to inject some code to make this work, please pleas please be specific as far as where I need to put it and how to access that place.

I read somewhere someone said to edit the view page and add a snippet, but I didn't understand what they meant. Can I edit the code of a view? Or where they talking about creating a whole new page and using an app part?

I appreciate any insight!

Okay, I found a solution from some blog posts and other questions.

Turns out that view pages can be edited under the setting menu. There's an edit option there!! WHAT?! enter image description here

I've added an HTML Form Web Part and inserted my CSS according to this article:
