In your picture (trial for stacking),
You probably have trouble with styling a daily view. I think it is about the view’s location and width. In that case, you can assign className to control specific view details with CSS.

Thanks for the remark. Stacking in the same position but with a different (additional) class for the column kinda works but there is still overlap (in this instance I am not limiting the slot height and count in the column, I would like to have as many entries as possible in the column):

I found a workaround. I made the background of the lower part black. : )

In the last screenshot Thu. 28 takes up so much space, even when I enable hideOverflow. I think have to remove some hardcoded 150px in .slotContent but I can’t get to it.

Trying to figure out two things:
One: I got the event title to wrap which is what I want, but it causes issues when there is an event following the one that wraps as you can see in the picture.
Second: How do I cut the overall height down of the whole thing? There is a lot of empty space, I’d like to limit the events per day to 3 and reduce the overall height of the calendar.

1. I think you’ve modified CSS for sending event time to the right side, It could make the confusing wrapping. hmmm hard to explain. sorry for my poor English. What kind of method did you use? float right?, By default this module usually use flexbox model. Try another approach with using flex.

2. adjust slotMaxHeight of view.

Ok, got the overall height down to manageable. I also reset the custom css work to time first, and all that. What I am looking to do is wrap the title of the event to multiple lines if it is too long, in doing so the event slot needs to increase, but when I do this, they still overlap like in the previous picture. I am very new to CSS so, I could easily have made a mistake.

I do have another question on the ics file. I am using one from a region but it does not seem to work, would you know why?
i works for google, outlook and others. Thanks

I really appreciate the module and it is (almost) exactly what I want. I still looking the same thing as @mrmagoo_83 that I could wrap the events in multiple lines when needed.

Also, is there a way to make events as wide as the column? Now it is slightly narrower. Here’s a picture of what I mean.

Can I also shrink the gap between events vertically somehow?

I really like this module and unlike the regular Calendar app is able to deal with DST.

I have a calendar of just my kids chores to do today. All i want is to display the chores that are today, in the calendar they are all day events. So i would like the “ends in xx hours” to go away altogether ideally, but at worst i would just like it to say “Today”. Also I would like to make the slot background transparent and the slot text white. I know that is in CSS, but don’t see where to make it transparent.
