Beta Calendar Multiple Event Display
Posted: Fri Feb 19, 2010 9:30 am
After experimenting with the new calendar that's currently in Beta, I must say that I'm very impressed. The developers have done a great job.
One item that I've noticed that will ultimately be a problem is when any given date on the calendar holds multiple events. The calendar doesn't expand enough to display multiple events making a few of the events disappear from view.
It's not uncommon in our stake to have 5 or 6 things going on at a time. Yes, it's possible to use multiple calendars and then choose what you wish to display but what about when all of the events are important to display? Abbreviation of the titles of the events does help some, but even with that it's possible to have some listings not be seen.
The calendar needs to be able to automatically expand the height of the boxes for the days of a week so that any days during that week that have multiple events won't lose information.
