Hi Xavier, The Google Calendar team has discussed adding the ability to specify colors per event, but it's not at the top of the list right now. Tagging events with categories/labels is a separate feature set and will probably be available before the ability to set event colors, but I don't know when either feature will be released.
Based on the activity in this thread I can see that these features are in high demand, so I'll see what I can do about getting them implemented. I'll keep you posted, Lane On Jun 18, 2:43 pm, Xavier Chen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Do we have any updates on the ability to add color-coded categories to > individual google events?
