Detailed Description and Symptoms

Non-edit User Group users cannot see the Highlighted dates in the calendar.

A user with a non-edit user group, ties to looks at the calendars he/she has assigned. When they do the calendar does not have a white background with gray highlighted day. What the user see is the calendar is all grayed out with no difference between selected dates and non-selected dates.

This issue is caused by the new Synthetica look and feel that Automic started using as of v8.0.

Solution

You will need to change the Look and Feel to resemble the older versions of Applications Manager, with the following instructions: 

Edit the Master's $AW_HOME/web/Client.jnlp file (after creating a backup first), locate the following line: 

<property name="appworx.master" value="<MASTER_NAME>"/> (where <MASTER_NAME> is the actual master's name)

and add the following line after it 

<property name="appworx.LookAndFeel" value="java"/>

***Here is an example:

<property name="appworx.master" value="<MASTER_NAME>"/>
<property name="appworx.LookAndFeel" value="java"/>
