Google calendar like view in sharepoint? - sharepoint

I am building a share point site wherein I am trying to get multiple calenders in a single view. I have been able to overlay/merge calenders but I am unable to make the select/unselect of a calender from a set of merged calenders seamless.
Explaining using the feature from google calender - basically, when using multiple calendars in google calender, the calendars menu is on the left. clicking on each individual calendar will hide the calendar if it is already displayed or show it if it is hidden.
In sharepoint clicking the calendar in overlay view opens that particular calendar. what I want to achieve is a view where all calendars are overlayed and can be shown or hidden by a simple mouse input.
Has anyone done this before? Any pointers? Thanks

Calendar List View in SharePoint Server 2019

In SharePoint 2019 I create a calendar by going to: Settings Wheel > Add an app > Calendar
How can I then create a list view for the calendar? Can this be done by going to Calendar > Edit List, then creating a new view with the list view format? If so, how?
Or do you need to create a seperate page and add the calendar to that page as a web part, then edit that web part (or something similar)?
By list view I mean a vertical list of calendar items that span from today's date to 12 months in advance. However, I am less concerned with the specifics of the date range and more concerned with the basic how to. Thanks.
If you've been using Modern views and pages, the SharePoint calendar is likely very confusing because it still uses the "classic" view, even if the entire rest of your site is using the Modern UI.
Go open your calendar list to its default view.
In the upper left-hand corner, click on the small "Calendar" tab (see screenshot)
This will bring up the calendar "ribbon", and from there you have multiple View options to either edit the current view or create a new one (see screenshot)
For more details on List View creation, see https://support.office.com/en-us/article/create-change-or-delete-a-view-of-a-list-or-library-27ae65b8-bc5b-4949-b29b-4ee87144a9c9#OfficeVersion=2016,_2013,_2010 -- be sure to not actually look at the version of this page for SP2019, as it assumes you are editing a modern list.

Outlook web addIn dropdown menu

I have created the Outlook Web Add-in project and trying th create the dropdown menu by following the link under
https://github.com/officedev/outlook-add-in-command-demo
It seems that dropdown menu just take static list. What i want to do is i have webservices which is returning some destination and link of that destionation . I want to display the list of all those destination under the dropdown and by clicking one of it, it opens the link into task pane.
Any tips ? how to display from webservice in dropdown menu.
It is not currently possible to dynamically populate the dropdowns, your best bet would be to have a single taskpane action, then render a selector page that dynamically shows the available options, then navigate to the page associated with that option.

Sharepoint calendar list view webpart connected with filter

I have a requirement in office online 365 in which following things are needed.
Calendar list with custom field "Events", type is choice (General,Marriage,Birthday)
Need to create a dropdown in which above field's value should bind.
When user select "General" then only General events should display, birthday and marriage should not display.
Main thing view should be only calendar and I have tried sharepoint list filter and list view webpart but calendar view is not supported.
Any help would be appreciated.
SharePoint OOB Features does not provide filter with calendar control. You need to implement custom code for the same.
Just use a self-referential calendar overlay -- create a view with a filter on the same calendar - then when creating the overlay, reference the current calendar list and the view with the filter -- give it a color and a name.. You may have to hit the resolve button to get it to find the newly created view...

How to customize the calendar web-part view in a sharepoint site?

I am using SharePoint 2007 and I have a calendar web part in a sharepoint site for which I'd like to customize the view. To be more specific, when I choose the "Current Events" view, it lists the events with three columns: Title, Start Time, and End Time. My question is:
1- Is it possible to somehow customize these columns, for example to show only date and start time?
2- Is is possible to set the view to only show the events in the current month in the first page and when you navigate with Next and Previous buttons you move between months?
More on this is that when I use Next button and then go back with Previous button the items in the list changes and it shows past items too.
Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

can you show an icon in an xpages iNotes calendar control

I have been trying to get an icon to show in the iNotes calendar control. I set the colEntryIcon to the programatic name of the column in the view. Still no luck. Also I noticed when dissecting the Teamroom template, the Calendar page in that app does not show an icon even though the colEntryIcon is set and it does show an icon in the classic notes view in teamroom. Many thanks for any assistance.
I just gave it a try with the teamroom template:
If I choose one of the "bigger" grids like 2 weeks, or month, icons only show onMouseOver:
If I choose a different calendarType with a smaller grid (week, day, or below, or summarized view) icons show both onMouseOver and in the grid:
Please double-check that the REST service's colEntryIcon property holds the correct programmatic name for your icon column (for a standard mail calendar that would be "$149")!
