    We got excited last night when we discovered you have the clickable calendar layout...however...we need a clickable grid similar to your calendar but we would need to be able to type in the white boxes. Can someone tell me if this can be done...and the boxes would have to be able to be different colors AND clickable - resulting in the results being that clickable form but the boxes that were selected to stand out somehow.


    Here's yours that we found: 1516893204Screen Shot 2018 01 24 at 9 Screenshot 10

    Here's something similar to what we're trying to accomplish but in a clickable document:

    UPDATE (February 22, 2019): Direct integration with Google Calendar is available now. You can check our guide on How to Use Google Calendar to Create Events with Your Form to learn more.

    You can also have a look at the announcement blog post for our Google Calendar Integration.

     

    I have checked your account and found the form that has the MultiSelect Grid widget shown in the screenshot you shared with us above. Unfortunately, it is not possible to enter text in the cells of that widget. As for changing the background color of the cells, I believe it is possible with the help of CSS codes that can be injected into the widget — How-to-Inject-CSS-Codes-to-Widgets provided that your form is using the traditional form layout — "All Questions in One Page"

    On another note, have you tried creating an integration between JotForm and Google Calendar with the help of Zapier? I suggest that you try to do that and see if that would help you with your requirements — https://zapier.com/apps/jotform/integrations/google-calendar

    If you have other questions, please feel free to let us know.
