Description

Problem to solve

When you have a category view with many categories, it can get difficult to know what time you're currently looking at. I've included a screenshot of an example category view with a lot of categories.

Proposed solution

It would be a nice enchancement to the category view if it was possible to enable a highlight of the time the user is currently mousing over. When there are numerous categories it can get difficult to determine the time you're currently looking at.

Research direction
Investigate the VCalendar component's source code in the Vuetify repository, specifically the category view rendering logic. Look at how time slots are currently displayed and what triggers hover events. There is no linked PR or comment specifying implementation, so you may need to propose a design for highlighting the time row on mouseover. Consider using CSS classes or dynamic styles to indicate the current hover time.
