Yeah - I figured that would be easy enough - I just wanted to make sure I wasn’t going to be reinventing any wheels.

Unfortunately, no. The Vaadin underlying Calendar component used to be a third-party add-on before it was included in Vaadin 8 as a part of the framework, so it has quite complex architecture and it’s hard to extend its UI part.
Fair enough. I suppose you could wrap it as a “CubaCalendar” or something, but then again maybe not as many projects need it.
I’ll just implement what I need similar to what you showed.
Onto way more important issues, like my other open thread. Ugh!
