Hi krishnan,

The event source object (from DataSource) is available in BeforeEventRender event handler as e.DataItem (e.DataItem.Source).

Example:

    protected void DayPilotCalendar1_BeforeEventRender(object sender, BeforeEventRenderEventArgs e)
    {
        e.DurationBarColor = e.DataItem["color"] as string;
    }

You can also specify custom fields using DataTagFields property. These fields will be available during all the event lifecycle (on the client side as well).

Example:

.aspx

<DayPilot:DayPilotCalendar .... DataTagFields='color' ... />

.aspx.cs

    protected void DayPilotCalendar1_BeforeEventRender(object sender, BeforeEventRenderEventArgs e)
    {
        e.DurationBarColor = e.Tag["color"];
    }
