To get a view like that you need to overlay different calendars.  To do 
that, click the circle to the left of the collections (calendars) you're 
interested in looking at in the sidebar.

Events (and items in general) in Chandler can appear in multiple 
collections, the calendar view in recent Chandler builds include 
swatches of color for each collection an events lives in, this might 
address your goal.

Not at all!  Usability feedback from people interested in using Chandler 
is quite valuable to us.

Sincerely,
Jeffrey
