Description Achim Bohnet 2016-09-23 22:08:30 UTC

Owncloud server gives every calendars a color.  When the calendars are added to korganizer, those colors are ignored and other colors are used (looks like color choice is random).
see screenshot

That's quite confusing when every korganizer on my different installations use different calendar colors.

Wish: please use the colors provided by the owncloud server.

Achim
P.S. Kalender app in Mac OS X used the server provided color, so the color information is supplied by caldav.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Add an owncloud calendar
2.  Compare colors between owncloud web calendar interface 
3.

Actual Results:  
A different calendar color is used

Expected Results:  
korganizer should use the same color as the caldav server

Same here and I would really appreciate it, if not only the calendar itself would be coloured like the owncloud calendar, but instead of the little line all dates should be coloured like the calendar, their saved in. The little border line is not really handy.

You can customize the bg color used in Settings -> Views -> Agenda|Monthview tab in the 'color usage group'.

FWIW:  I've seen yesterday that the davdroid app on android also picks the colors supplied from the owncloud/caldav server.
