I want to limit the number of items to be displayed in Month view for each day, as having too many items in one day stretches the calendar and makes it look ugly.

I tried limiting the number of items by setting the value of 'Items to display' to 3 in both 'Calendar page' display, as well as in "Month view" attachment. However, the view still lists all the items for each day.

The calendar view does not use the "Items to display" setting in views.
Instead, there is a "Maximum items" setting under the month display's calendar style settings.
See attached screenshots. That should do the trick.

@arlinsandbulte Without your help, it would have taken me another 10 years to figure this one out. Thanks *so* much for the info, as well as the screen shot. Much appreciated!

Btw is this documented somewhere? I read README.txt / advanced help but it wasn't there

@arlinsandbulte Thank you very much for your explanation. I wasted many hours on finding this. I was trying by custom coding and views option 'Items to display:3' but that was not working.
I read README.txt / advanced help but it wasn't there.
Thanks again!
