Description:

"Calendar Event" is a plasmoid that displays the days of the calendar in one column.
Main look idea come from "Fading Calendar" plasmoid
( http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/Fading+Calendar?content=124153 ),
but instead to point in graphics, it is intended to display akonadi items
(events, birthdays, ...) and holidays.

I think I found a bug: tooltips do not appear for non-all-day-events when hovering over the text. However, they do appear when hovering next to the text. I've looked into the code but did not find the cause yet.

I've made some changes so I can have bold text for enabled events, the diffs can be found on pastebin.com
diff for daygraphicswidget.cpp: http://pastebin.com/index/bfpMbuHv
diff for daygraphicswidget.h: http://pastebin.com/9EEid245

I did not implement a option in the settings yet, as I currently do not know how this works.

I hope you like my work, it's the first time I'm doing something in C++ :)

Is it a bug that for events the times are all wrong or better: non-existing? If i hover over an event it says it's happening from 00:00-24:00, but that is wrong.

Oh.. thanks, I think you refer to occurrences that don't have a time. In version 0.4 if the item has "all day" checked, time will not be displayed

causa-prima

No, those are no "all day"-events. Here's a screenshot of the bug, comparing the stock calendar plasmoid with yours: http://abload.de/img/calendareventbugyhroz.png I'm using the arch linux AUR package, which right now is version 0.3

It was a bug related to recurrences. Thanks for the input, it should be ok now with 0.4.1

Thanks for the quick fix :)

Great plasmoid! Only things missing for me:
- seeing the event texts without hovering, that means directly displaying the details. I'd love something like the long day in line one, the event and it's details in line 2.
- changable icons for visible items
- non-rounded today frame

Many thanks.
- I don't know if displaying details directly on calendar is an advantage: it can be problematic if we have multiple events on the same day and we want to display all without modifying the day frame size... I know the actual hovering is a bit ugly but try to send me a sketch of your idea.
- Yes, more icons can be nice. I will try
- Ok, I can add a frame angle radius in settings

Oh, right, I did not think about multiple events on one day. The only thing I could imagine that would be suitable would be something like a bar with indicators for the time used by those events. But that would be to complicated to comprehend and would not give the ammount of information I would like to have.

Something else about the icons: I think it would look better if they were vertically centered to the corresponding day :)

I have implemented icons vertically centered to the corresponding day myself, here's my diff: http://pastebin.com/XtFQPDNQ

Hi, it works fine but i get the time for events 1 hr too early (instead of 20,00 i get 19.00)

silmpam

Mmm.. I think that's a time zone bug. Do you submit time in UTC when you create the event?

cbraum2000

I think so. My Box is setted up for utc. Its all fine for example with google calendar agenda. Its fine with korganizer too. Same with lightning (what I use to set up my dates). Im using a local ical-file which is synched to a google-calendar by dropbox and gcaldaemon.

Now, its perfect. Thanks for your work. One wish: It would be fine, if I could edit dates with a click on them ...
