Trouble with Calendar App Group Data

Hi!

I am having trouble with the Group Data By function and using the Custom Category List Order. Some columns that I sort by allow me to choose custom colors while others do not.

Is there a reason why some columns allow sorting by color and others do not?

How can I identify which columns will allow sorting by color?

Examples are from the same calendar but the Group Data By is different

Hi Shannon,

I'm working with our Support team to get you an answer to this.

Hi Shannon,

If you're using a Report as the source —which I think you are since the column name is "Sheet Name"— then you can only apply color to dropdown list columns.

I think this is a great opportunity to submit a Product Enhancement Request to let our Product team know you would like to see this functionality within the Calendar App.

I've also submitted a request to include this information in our Help Center article: https://help.smartsheet.com/articles/2476776-keep-teams-organized-smartsheet-calendar-app
