Have tried your suggestions. Version 30.31 (without Lightning Design) allows me to change event colours using Calendar Tweaks. Don't know how to access 31.8 or 31.8.5 so cannot try these. I am able to change colours in events using all other Thunderbird themes except Australis 31.7.5. I think there is a bug within 31.7.5 that does not allow changes in colours of events - they always stay green! Thank you for your help.

Sorry, I have tried all you suggest but all events still stay green!

Not sure what you mean by 'Or use Australis ReDesign TB without Lightning-Design, when you use Calendar Tweaks !'
How is this done?

In Thunderbird:
Under Settings - Calendar - Generally.
Click on:
Optimize colors for ... ( it must set / check mark ).
Then you use windows color.

If this not work, then use Australis ReDesign TB without Lightning-Design ( Version 30.31, Version 27.5 ).

I use my own theme, it works, but i don't use Calendar Tweaks.

Colors for category and colors for events, i can change and setting !

- see screenshot:
green = Feiertage ( Holidays )
blue = Privat ( Private )
yellow = Termin ( Events )

Last try with version 31.8.5 ( download from the cloud )
or 31.8 ( without Lightning-Design )

When using this theme in Thunderbird in conjunction with the add on 'Calendar Tweaks 6.1.' it is not possible to apply category colours to the events as the green applied by the Australis theme overides everything. Is it possible to do anything about this....?

In Thunderbird:
Under Settings - Calendar - Categories.
Click on the "Name" and then select "Edit Color".

Or in Lightning, click right in Calendar
then "New Calendar" ...
then "OK" ,,,
Choose a color.

Or use Australis ReDesign TB without Lightning-Design, when you use Calendar Tweaks !


Sorry, but both Add-ons use color settings in Lightning,
There must somewhere conflicts and incompatible things occur
