Seeking a little bit of inspiration here… I need to create something the same (or similar) to the following in Glide: [roster] The above represents a shift roster for a single worker for an entire month. The colour coding represents different types of shifts (D = Day Shift, N = Night Shift, etc…

Thanks. Yeah, I do have Cloudinary in the back of my mind, although I’m not sure it would be any less complex than my HTML/CSS option. Thinking if I took the Cloudinary route, I’d probably need a template image for each month, and then find some way to calculate where to put the image overlays for …

I would create 31 Images for each type. With the day of month as text in the image. Than i would create a sheet to manage the images. At least I would use a simple tiles view filtert by user and date greater equal now and group by month.

This is indeed quite a challenge. You would need at most 31 overlays of the circles, and that’s not taking into account you have to get the Calendar weekdays right for each month as well.

I know the alignment is a bit off, but I’m impressed with the HTML calendar table. This is one of those situations where we’re trying to fit a square calendar peg into a round Glideapp hole. It may be easier to sync your sheet with a third party calendaring service that offers this type of layout …

Progress!! [Screen Shot 2021-01-25 at 11.10.38 PM] Actually, I think this is going to work. I can use the shift codes as the class names. It’s going to be a monster template, but I think it will work…

Needs some tidy up, but that’s the back of it broken :grinning: Table template: [Screen Shot 2021-01-26 at 1.44.19 AM] And CSS template: [Screen Shot 2021-01-26 at 1.46.08 AM]

Amazing @Darren_Murphy :star_struck: It would be great if we had some Calendar component, or something like that. Something similar to date picker/calendar screen style but in flat format and not as pop-up

Wow. If the table is hard coded, though, does that mean you have to do that every month every year so you know where the dates fall per weekday?

Would LOVE to see this when you’re done (or even halfway done).
