Calendar overlay capability gone?

I used to be able to create a calendar app and add overlays from other calendar list views. Now the classic calendar isn't there to add it to my site. Has this feature gone and is there a way to do this in SharePoint Modern Experience? 

  • Hello Mark Vigrass 

    in modern you can use a Group calender (from Groups and Teams), a events list from a template or a custom list with a calender view...but all of them don't have an overlay, this feature is not available on modern.

     

    Best, Dave

      Thanks for the response,

       

      What I'm trying to achieve is a calendar view of tasks, derived from a list where the tasks are plotted on the calendar based on their start/end dates in the list, and are colour coded to the individual assigned or the project they relate to. Is that doable with those modern features? In classic I used a list and then created calendar views in that list, and overlayed them on a calendar app to show them in different colours. 

       

      How do I achieve that in modern?
