Calendar control - mark events on a day with circle in MonthDayGallery

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 57

Hi There,

My question is how can I mark an event with a small circle easily?
I want to mark all the days that have any events without using the Due Date as it is not used in this calendar. 
At the moment I can only display items with the following criteria using the Due Date field(see attached):

 

 

 

!IsBlank(LookUp(Calendar, 'Due Date' = DateAdd(_firstDayInView,ThisItem.Value,TimeUnit.Days)).Title)

    Hi @Snoop ,

     

    Can you please share what 'Calendar' is in your formula?

    Hi @BCBuizer,

    It is the data source (SharePoint Calendar)

    Hi @Snoop ,

     

    Usually the Calendar template works with a collection of calendar events, based on which the visibility of the circle is set. So when you are saying it is a SharePoint calendar, can you please clarify if "Calendar" is a collection, a list, something else?

    Hi @BCBuizer,

    It is the default calendar (which is a special list with a calendar view as far as I know) on a SharePoint site.

    Hi @Snoop ,

     

    If it's a SharePoint list, what is the name of the column that has the start date/time in it? Unfortunately I couldn't find a default Calendar in my environment to check.

    Hi @BCBuizer,

    It is Called Start Time

    Hi @Snoop ,

     

    So, then let's try:

     

    !IsBlank(LookUp(Calendar, 'Start Date' = DateAdd(_firstDayInView,ThisItem.Value,TimeUnit.Days)).Title)

    Hi @BCBuizer,

    I have only 'Start Time' which includes date and time as well and the above formula does not work with it.

    Hi @Snoop ,

     

    Then let's try to retrieve the date from 'Start Time':

     

    !IsBlank(LookUp(Calendar, DateValue(Text('Start Time')) = DateAdd(_firstDayInView,ThisItem.Value,TimeUnit.Days)).Title)

    Hi @BCBuizer ,
    Thank you for helping me I really appreciate it. This is working but on the other hand it creates a new problem which is a delegation warning. If I understood correctly when I have more than 2000 events in the calendar it won't work ?
