How can I just add borders instead of background color for the event?

[arshad104]

I am new to android and using this calendar for my project. I need to show borders instead of background color. Need help! Thanks

You can use different colors for each event.

mWeekView.setMonthChangeListener((newYear, newMonth) ->
                {
                    List<WeekViewEvent> events = new ArrayList<>();
                    for (int i = 0; i < calendarEvents.size(); i++) {
                        CalendarEvent calendarEvent = calendarEvents.get(i);

                        Calendar startDate = Calendar.getInstance();
                        startDate.setTime(calendarEvent.startDate);

                        Calendar endDate = Calendar.getInstance();
                        endDate.setTime(calendarEvent.endDate);

                        if (startDate.get(Calendar.MONTH) + 1 == newMonth &&
                                endDate.get(Calendar.MONTH) + 1 == newMonth &&
                                startDate.get(Calendar.YEAR) == newYear &&
                                endDate.get(Calendar.YEAR) == newYear) {

                            WeekViewEvent weekViewEvent = new WeekViewEvent(2, calendarEvent.eventName + "\n" + calendarEvent.typeName, startDate, endDate);

                            if (calendarEvent.typeName.equals("EventType1"))
                                weekViewEvent.setColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.event_color_01));
                            if (calendarEvent.typeName.equals("EventType2"))
                                weekViewEvent.setColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.event_color_02));
                            if (calendarEvent.typeName.equals("EventType3"))
                                weekViewEvent.setColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.event_color_03));
                            if (calendarEvent.typeName.equals("EventType4"))
                                weekViewEvent.setColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.event_color_04));
                            if (calendarEvent.typeName.equals("EventType5"))
                                weekViewEvent.setColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.event_color_05));

                            weekViewEvent.setId(calendarEvent.eventId);
                            events.add(weekViewEvent);
                        }

                    }

                    return events;
                }

@arshad104 you can adopt the library instead of compiling it..In the weekView class there is a method "drawEvents". If you browse throught the method you can see the canvas being drawn for the event in the line canvas.drawRect(params). Currently this function draws a rectangle with the color specified in the last parameter. You can modify the code as

canvas.drawLine(left,top,right,top,COLOR); canvas.drawLine(left,bottom,right,bottom,COLOR); canvas.drawLine(left,top,left,top,COLOR); canvas.drawLine(right,top,right,bottom,COLOR); canvas.drawRect(left,top,right,bottom,Color.WHITE);

This would draw a white or preferred color rectangle and also add lines to the border of the rectangle. Hope this helps

It would be great if this could be included as a modifiable parameter in the XML.

Another interesting work around is to simply subtract 1 minute from the end of every event.
