Hi all,

because I use a Palm IIIx with color display and the DateBook5 calendar =20
software, I am used to deal with colored categories. So I really apprecia=
te=20
the color support in KOrganizer!

But I wonder, why there are no colors in the month view?! IMHO this is a =
break=20
in the KOrganizers' GUI. So I played around to implement a colored monthv=
iew=20
and found out, that a colored background looks very ugly:
  please have a look at <http://www.t800.org/bgcolor.png>

So I tried to change the text color and set it to the category color, whi=
ch is=20
used as background color in the agenda view and in the week view:
  see <http://www.t800.org/fgcolor.png>

and I must say, I really like that look :-)! The colored text gives you a=
=20
hint, to which category the incident belongs.

So, I want to suggest to apply the attached patchfile to komonthview.cpp =
and=20
get the monthview colored, too.

Comments?

have fun!
Karsten
