If you need a simple bar with a specified color then you can use an active area:

You can also change the position of the duration bar by modifying the CSS theme. The default CSS theme looks like this:
.scheduler_default_event_bar {
top:0px;left:0px;right:0px;height:4px;background-color:#9dc8e8;
}
.scheduler_default_event_bar_inner {
position:absolute;height:4px;background-color:#1066a8;
}
You can easily move it around but you can't make the "inner" part vertical (it highlights the duration).
