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!

Hi, how can I set the events to not expired? I got just four options there: two hours after their start, one hour after their start, right after their start, or its end time.
