How is it possible to mark a day for holyday (change the background for the all day, change the header text of the day, ...) ?

Thanks for a suggestion.

You can catch BeforeDrawDayViewCell event and mark a cell with a requred color (red for holidays for example). See our sample application for how it is implemented for a lunch time:


Private Sub CalendarControl_BeforeDrawDayViewCell(ByVal CellParams As XtremeCalendarControl.CalendarDayViewCellParams)
    '''...    
    If TimeValue(CellParams.BeginTime) >= #1:00:00 PM# And TimeValue(CellParams.BeginTime) < #2:00:00 PM# _
       And Weekday(CellParams.BeginTime) <> 1 And Weekday(CellParams.BeginTime) <> 7 Then
        CellParams.BackgroundColor = RGB(198, 198, 198)
    End If
End Sub

It's a good idea.

The problem is that this indication (cell highlight) is not visible the most of the time and the user can't see that the day is a holyday.

A better way would be to be able to change the background and the text of the header of the day that will be always visible during the scrolling of the calendar.

Is there a project to have properties to personnalize the header of a day in the next release ?

In the nearest version we plan to add a dynamic customization.
This would let you to change Header text font, color, background for each day.
