After sucessfully using the Calendar Visual for some time now, suddenly it became unstable lately.
When all slicers are cleared, the calendar shows an error message:
"'Start date' and 'Events' are required fields"
The problem is solved once something is selected from the slicers.
Please help?
I had the same problem, and finally solve it.
Looks like someone complained in the MAQ software communnity about this too and they resolved the issue by releasing a "BETA" version that is not available in the "Visual Store" of the POWER BI desktop. So in order to install this BETA version you must go here: https://maqsoftware.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360061830292-Calendar-by-MAQ-Software-Beta-build-V... and download the ".pbiviz" file.
Next you need to open your power bi desktop report and "Import a visual from a file" selecting the one you just downloaded (Calendar by MAQ Software (Beta Build) - 4.0.2.pbiviz)

Thank you. This resolved the same issue as borx.
Thanks, SamsonsAnalytics!
I had this problem and you solve it.

Hello,
It seems that there is a issue with date format.
I tried to change date format from the table to YY-MM-dd and it works so far.
I didn't try other format.
Regards,
I also have this issue.
Hello Borx,
I have the same problem. The visual is empty after reopen PBI files. I have the message "'Start date' and 'Events' are required fields"inside the calendar visuel and then it disapears.
