Multiple kinds of selection highlighting around dates in a month.

Sarthak Srivastava

Asked On January 8, 2020 09:03 AM UTC

I am trying to develop a medical app with medication warnings around dates. These have to appear different.

I can customize a particular kind of data selector, but it applies all across the selected date uniformly.

I need different highlighting around different dates.

Please see the image below. I have 3 different kinds of highlighting requirements.

1. Current date (the date appears in a maroon text color).

2. Selected day (This is the one with Gray background and the user can selected any date on the calendar)

3. Scheduled Dates. (This is a Blue Circle and these need to be programmatically set when the app loads)
