Excuse me Please:
I am experiencing difficulty in finding a way to change the color of the FONT seen in the Month view of the Thunderbird (v52.6.0) add-on Lightning Calendar (v5.4.6) on a win7pro64bit system.
I have already set the
Tools/Options/Calendar/General tab
[x] Optimize colors for accessibility
and
I have already set Edit/Calendar Properties.../Color:
(though pausing parenthetically, the Category color should FILL the event, not be a passive little tic mark, but that is a topic of different post)
How does one change the COLOR of the FONT of the event e.g. [Soandso's Birthday Party 1400-1600][] to something of either any color or at least black, e.g. [Soandso's Birthday Party 1400-1600][] ?
Thank you kindly for the time taken to answer this simple question, and I apologize if it is something so easily missed in the menus, as I have looked through all but the Developer Tools(which surely it should not be found there)
CAH

}

Re: change Lightning calendar Event font color
Thank you morat, that does indeed allow one to specifically edit the Event box background and font color.
(rather wonder why this is not apart of the normal Thunderbird/Lightning UI)
On a now additional note, how would one remove the inner white shadow/shading that is along the inner edge of the Event box itself?
It seems some Events have it, while others do not.
Status of Confirmed was the only difference I could notice, but changing Status does not change inner shading around Event box edge.
I think this is a related question, hence continuing here as opposed to new topic.

Perfection attained!
Thank you kindly for the assistance in this subtle configuration issue.
/e makes it a point to put edited .css file somewhere safe.

Have you tried the "Calendar Tweaks" add-on ? It fills the whole event with the category colour, not just a strip at one end. It also does other things...
