Updated Color Scheme is Terrible

Prior to this update, my task boxes in my weekly calendar view were beautiful and vibrant colors - which really helped me to visually organized my tasks by each client and project. This recent update has made the task boxes lighter and it is MUCH harder to see and is absolutely awful for visual organization of tasks. A lot of people use colors to visaully organize things and this is just terrible. It would have been better if Hive provided more customization for the color scheme to be able to still be in light mode but have the vibrant colors for their projects. However, making this change and not allowing us to keep the old vibrant colors is just awful, visually. I may have to look for something else now because the color options with Hive were a big reason I chose this software.

Hi Clare, thank you for the feedback. We will add in an option to get the vibrant colors back in. It should be live tomorrow. You will find it in the Configure panel under the "Display" section. Look for "Use solid task colors".

Agree. I'm so disappointed Hive would make this change without giving us warning in advance or explaining the decision. It is making it really hard for me to decipher between projects in my calendar view, which is just about the only view I use in Hive. Please revert it back. We chose those colors for a reason.

The recent update has made the colours of projects less saturated. Please allow for an "old version" or a theme option for brighter colours.
