I would like to be able to drag and drop cards into the different calendars in the planner and then when I drag a card onto a calendar then I could change the could to visually show that that is the calendar it is on. At the moment all the card entries are purple and I cannot visually tell the difference between calendars which make the planning even more confusing.

I have linked 2 calendars to have 2 people schedules there and I would like o drag and drop the card and plan their days yet cannot tell them apart. I also do not like that purple colour. How do I change this. I am new and would appreciate the help. Thanks 

I am not looking for different power ups to manage either. If I can change colours then it will be sufficient for my needs

At the moment, Trello Planner uses a fixed purple color for all scheduled cards, and there is no built-in setting to change this color yet.

While you can customize how these events appear within Google Calendar (by changing the Trello calendar's color in your Google settings), those changes won't be reflected inside the Trello interface.

The ability to control Planner event colors is a known request and is being tracked  by our product team. I’ve added your feedback to that request.

Thank you !
