I can change the color and shape of the all day items bar no problem but now what I need is to create a bar around each appointment item. In the content.xml the items are specified as CompactList whithin a grid but when I try to apply any background colors it is applied to the whole day space instead of just the list of appointments. Thanks ahead of time.

Re: Need help adding a background color to the compact list items in Month vi

The easiest way to figure it out is to pick a template that has what you want and look at the code. However, the compact list can't be edited - you need to use list. Beyond that, I keep crashing CPAO. :(
<DockPanel Row="0" Column="0" Style="LevelLeafBody"
<SpanningAllDayAreaPlaceholder Orientation="Top" /
<List Orientation="Fill" FontSize="7pt" ShowEmptyRow="true" MaxRowWrap="5" RowSize="14" TypeFilter="AppointmentsTasks"
<Columns
<Column Width="*" ShowDuplicates="True" Left="1" Top="2" Right="1" Bottom="2"
<Sources
<Source Name="CategorySymbols"/
<Source Name="StartTime" Format="t" StartSeparator=""/
<Source Name="EndTime" Format="t" StartSeparator="-"/
<Source Name="Subject" StartSeparator=": "/
<Source Name="Location" StartSeparator="(" EndSeparator=")"/
</Sources
</Column
</Columns
</List
</DockPanel>
