Complex Student Set grouping

I have a problem though in the formatting of the html files and consequently the printing. Now, an activity will be printed with six subgroups on the timetable making it unusually wide(or tall) and the subgroup names do not actually reflect the student set that should be displayed e.g Mwaniki-CRE-4 E BIOCRE1, 4 E PHYCRE1, 4 W BIOCRE1, 4 W PHYCRE1, 4 N BIOCRE1, 4 N PHYCRE1, 4 S BIOCRE1, 4 S PHYCRE1
instead of Mwaniki-CRE-4 CRE1 or Mwaniki-CRE-4. This means i edit the timetable manually after every generation to make this changes. I suggest adding a displayname tag to the activity which defaults to the current display name(without the activityID ) and using this to determine what is displayed for the activity.

Why can't you just rename the subactivities like you want?

The other thing is can i get a subject color propagated to the entire activity td so that i can color the timetable depending on the subject only. so that every activity of the Subject will have one color and not just the subject span only while the student set, location and teacher spans remain uncolored.

You must use the highest html-level (level 6) to use that feature. so check the fet->settings->timetable.

Lastly, for activities with same starting time is it possible to have the in one column/row so that the number of rows/columns is fixed to the either the number of days or lessons(depending on the selected timetable. This way it is easier to print.

i am sorry, i don't understand. can you please explain with an example.
