Additional context
Took me a while to figure out it are the weekdays indicated as the dots. Having the weekend colored gives a quicker glance of what day of the week it is.
Just an alternative implementation .... I wanted this as well - so I used an automation in Home Assistant to reset the colour with WDCA in the settings at the beginning of each day. Pick your own colours. I guess anything that can send the MQTT message or the the POST can do the same thing.
I was going to request the same feature :)

This would only make the color of the active weekend day different. I think, like me, it's more like having the 5 days of the week in white/50%, and the weekend days in green/50% for example. Then, the active day would be white/100% or green/100% depending if it's a weekend day or not.

How did you do this? I have been even trying to change the color of the time with TIM_COL and I can't get that to work either.

I use this bit of HA YAML and call it just after midnight. There are other things in here so just look at the CHCOL WDCI and WDCA settings. This sets up a payload that I send via MQTT. You can do it in other ways - the code and data are the important bit. Works a treat. ma_reset_settings: alias: MA - Reset Settings fields: request_on: description: '' sequence: - variables: return_value: the_topic_root: settings the_payload: |- { {%- if now().weekday() >= 5 %} "CHCOL": [ 0, 255, 0 ], "WDCA": [ 0, 255, 0 ], {%- elif states('binary_sensor.workday_sensor') == 'on' %} "CHCOL": [ 255, 0, 0 ], "WDCA": [ 255, 0, 0 ], {%- else %} "CHCOL": [ 0, 0, 255 ], "WDCA": [ 0, 0, 255 ], {%- endif %} {%- if request_on %} "BRI": 200, "ABRI": false, {%- else %} "BRI": 7, "ABRI": false, {%- endif %} "WDCI": [ 64, 64, 64 ], "TEFF": 10, "BLOCKN": true, "TSPEED": 333, "UPPERCASE": false, "VOL": 15 } - stop: Finished response_variable: return_value description: ""
I would support this feature request! :-)
