This is a (partly) wrapper for this Github project. It is a "starter" for the request posted by @jahswani in the Business Forum
Posting the following:
1. B4A project demonstrating functionality added thus far
2. The Java Code - do with it / change it / amend it whichever way you like
3. B4A library files - copy them to your additional library folder
4. You will also need android-support-v4.jar to be in you additional library folder. You can download it from here https://www.dropbox.com/s/qmggn0wm5a6bqa9/android-support-v4.jar?dl=0
How to use:
1. See code in the attached project to add an Event via B4A code
2. Touch and empty cell - it will be highlighted in Yellow (see code to change the color). Then touch the same cell again. An Event will be added to the Calendar based on the B4A code:
3. Use your finger to scroll up/down (time) and left / right (days)
4. The following 3 events will be raised in the B4A project
To change the appearance:
When you touch a cell with an Event that has been set it will display a Toast Message with the name of the Calendar Event and the Detail of the Calendar Event.
The Toast Message is displayed by making use of inline Java code. Therefor you also need to enable the JavaObject (v2.05) library in the IDE.
I will help/assist where I can to amend/change/modify the lib - but I am mostly leaving it up to you to take it further.
Sample code:
The library as it stands at present:
MultiDayCalendarView
Author: Github: Sundeep Kahlon, Wrapped by: Johan Schoeman
Version: 1

SAMPLE B4A PROJECT STARTED
AN EMPTY CELL TOUCHED - IT IS HIGHLIGHTED IN YELLOW
THE SAME YELLOW HIGHLIGHTED CELL TOUCED AGAIN. AN EVENT IS ADDED (MORNING MEETING)
CELL WITH AN EVENT TOUCHED - A TOAST MESSAGE IS DISPLAYED WITH THE EVENT NAME AND THE EVENT DETAIL (via inline Java Code)
SCROLL LEFT USING YOUR FINGER (SEE THE B4A LOG)
SCROLL RIGHT USING YOUR FINGER (SEE THE B4A LOG)
In order to compile the Java code you need to add a libs folder on the same folder lever as the src folder. Then copy android-support-v4.jar into the libs folder to compile the Java code to a jar and xml
Enjoy.....
