Calendar all day events on the PPC WM6

Hi All,

Is it just me, or do `all day` events on the calendar dont show on the Today
plugin thing.

I can get appointments to show up, but not anything if i have all day
things, like birthdays or away days.

I do have the box ticked on the optiosn to show them, is this a bug on wm6
?

Thanks!

I think that is the same issue that causes them not to show up in
MONTH VIEW. This is because those are "Free" events, not "Busy"
or "Out of the Office"

Try changing them to Busy as a test and see if that fixes it.

Re: Calendar all day events on the PPC WM6

I have been reading this thread, and I noticed that in Outlook 2007, on my
pc, it does the same thing, if it's labeled as an all day event, doesn't
show in the calendar window like it does if I don't categorize it as all
day. Maybe it's an Outlook thing.

Re: Calendar all day events on the PPC WM6

I have ATT Tilt (WM6 Pro) with Pocket Informant 8, and the all day
appts do show in the Today plugin, even when they are classed as
"Free".

Re: Calendar all day events on the PPC WM6

Mine show up in SBSH Pocket Breeze. Another great app. But then pretty much
anything is better than the stock calendar Today thing.

Re: Calendar all day events on the PPC WM6

Go to Start > Settings > Today > Items.

Click on Calendar.

Now click on Options.

Now you will see the screen to change those display options

I just did this. The all day event for the current day is displayed, but
no subsequent events are displayed, regardless of the setting for free,
busy, etc..

It does this with WM5 and when I had a Palm Treo 750 running WM5 and later
an upgrade to WM6.

It'd be nice to have the next couple of events displayed in the Today
screen, instead of what is occuring today, which is what it does at
present. (it does show timed appointments that are upcoming).
