In the old (pre-2018) Google Calendar, timed events were shown in the color you chose for each calendar. Now they’re in black, with just a colored dot to the left of the name. This extension changes the text color back to the color you choose, and hides the dots. Events are made slightly more space-efficient.
New in version 0.31: More compact display in schedule view (thanks to Tim Taylor again).
New in version 0.3: Schedule view works. Thanks, Tim Taylor!

You Rock Adele Spinasse! And, I thought I was the only one being driven nuts with all the dots. Thank you… Thank you!
It works perfectly! Thanks!
Without this, the new Google Calendar was completely unusable. Lifesaver!
You are amazing! My father relied heavily on the color coding for medical appointments and other tasks.
Thank you so very much!
Rockstar extension for Google’s new calendar insanity and “DOT” obsession. (Google considers “DOTS” helpful and innovative??) Hey Google there is a reason “highlighting markers and colored pens” were invented before you.
Indispensable! Thank-you!
It shouldn’t have come to this.
I gave Google feedback on the issue.
Replacing contrasting, coloured text with black was nonsense.
Google Calendar’s product team seems not to recognise people who keep multiple calendars. A similar problem exists in the mobile product, which does allow for changing the colour of an *event* but not for switching the *calendar* of an event.
A life saver!
Yayyy it makes my calendar usable again! I’m so happy. Since the update I’ve been making all my events full-day so they’d show up in the right color and that was a huge pain. Thank you so much!
Now I can distinguish at a glance between all my different calendars when I view them all together in month view. The new Calendar update which I was forced to switch to in January 2018 had made all the events gray. Very grateful for this extension!
I subscribe to many different calendars and rely on colours to easily distinguish the source of each event. Google really messed up with the new version of their calendar, but this extension has saved the day!
I rely on calendar colors, and the new dots for event categories was not cutting it. Thanks!
This extension has made the new Google Calendar usable again!
