[Bug/Feature?] Vivaldi reverts Caldav calendar events color to default at synchronization
-
Hello all,
I've a Caldav calendar at my hosting provider and I'm syncing it in Vivaldi calendar app.
It works. Nearly.
I've changed to blue the events color that is locally displayed, but at any synchronization it reverts to a default orange.
Curiously, orange is the default color for events even in the web caldav calendar so I don't know if Vivaldi is synchronizing the color too (feature) or it's just resetting the color set in the app options (bug).
Any advice is welcome.

Hi, which provider is this?
I just test it with a Google calendar, Vivaldi sync the color set in the Google calendar, it overwrite the Vivaldi setting.
To my knowledge color is not a standard, it work for Google but not for an Outlook calendar, for example.
Please change the color in the web interface of your providers calendar, it should change in Vivaldi at the next update.Cheers, mib

So, it's a feature.
Unfortunetly, there isn't an option in my hosting provider web calendar to change the events color.
Is there any way to override it locally, via CSS mods or anything like that?

Log into Roundcube then go to the Calendar section and hit the three dots at the top of the page and Edit the Calendar. The colour should be there.

Unluckly, now I have this problem:
https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/106457/calendar-not-showing/29
and without calender displaying its color is less important.

Unfourtunately , my ISP uses a customized version that has only a fixed color.

I'll file a request for enhancement because I think this is a usability adn accessibility issue.
Usability: if I set a custom color in local vivaldi options (and it is displayed until the calender is refreshed) it should prevail on whatever color the remote calendar has.
Accessibility: same as above but with the need for some people to change the color due to eye impairness or illness. I'm photophobic and that orange is really hurting my eyes.
Edit: I've filed VB-116164
