Every application has a few cool features you really enjoy working on. In this video, of this multi-part series, we add the feature of being able to apply color to selected calendars. The implementation uses an easy-to-use system of dragging a color on top of the name of the calendar.

Useful, not only for this particular solution, but anytime you want to allow a user to select a color to be applied to text based data. We pick up where we ended in part 1 of this series - with adding new features to our growing Scheduling solution. Whether you are following along for the application, or you just want to use the cool coloring feature, this video will show you how to make it happen!
