Is there a way to show the title of a multi-day event only on the first day (not every single day) but still show the event color for all the days in the monthly view with the Novel skin? Thanks!
Hello,
unfortunately, it’s not possible.
Please note, if you need an option that is not included in the MEC, you need to manipulate and it is referred to as customization.

defaulting to full month view – how do we do that? Is that a pro only feature?
Hello,
The full calendar view is also available in the Lite version, it just doesn’t have these two skins: yearly and agenda.
