           Summary: various problems with events spanning multiple days
                    (several bugs)
           Product: korganizer
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: schumacher@kde.org
        ReportedBy: kdebugs@bitfed.com


Version:           3.1 (using KDE 3.1.0)
Installed from:    Gentoo
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2.1 20021207 (Gentoo Linux 3.2.1-20021207)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.20

I work night shifts on occasion, and regularly enter a shift in that runs 7pm - 7am, \
the problems also occur for other events that run over the midnight changeover.

* mothly print view leaves out time on overnight events, and prints the event on both \
days

* when you have just opened korganizer (clicking the icon in the system tray), and \
double click an event the details show as correct duration, but start is eg 13/02/03 \
(dd/mm/yy format) 7pm, end is 14/02/03 7pm.  Ie. the time is out by a signifigant \
amount, but the duration is correct.  If you click cancel and open it again, it \
displays the correct time,  If instead you click ok it changes the event's time to \
the stuffed numbers

* Dragging and dropping events eg. a 12 hour event starting at 7am, so that it ends \
up overlapping midnight ie. drag it to start at 7pm, causes the event's duration to \
be truncated and to end at 11:59pm

* It would be nice if the height of the cells was able to be set to show a particular \
amount of the day, ie default to 50% of it visible at once (I'd like to personally \
show all 24 hours, and for it to exactly fill the available space)

* There is a bug in the Height of cell code (changing "Hour Size=10" in the \
korganizerrc to "Hour Size=6") which shows 10pm, 11pm, 12pm, 13pm, 14pm ... after \
midnight

* It would be logical for the month view to show the activity that is continuing from \
the previous day before any other activities on that day, ie. "work --)\n1:23pm blah" \
instead of "1:23pm blah\nwork --)"

I had a very brief look at the source of korganizer (geez I love gentoo :), but I'm \
not sure whether the issues I've mentioned are in libical, libkal, or korganizer or a \
combination of all three.  I'm also not sure whether it would have been better to add \
these issues as individual bugs, feel free to do so if this makes it easier to track \
these bugs / feature requests, and add me as a contact on each of them so I know how \
they are each being resolved.

I don't have a lot of time to spare with fulltime work and uni, but I can probably do \
some of the smaller fixes if a small amount of guidance is given as to where the \
problem is likely to be.

Thanks for a great product,
Josh
