That's why I thought about implementing multiple alarms, wit= h=20 offsets from either start or end, etc.: http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kdepim-usability/2004-September/000012.html But the main use case will still be a simple offset from the start. And tha= t=20 should be made as easy and straight-forward as possible. > And some libkcal tweaks. Where would you need the libkcal tweaks? Libkcal supports alarms relative t= o=20 the start, relative to the end and at a fixed time. That's all implemented. And to store an offset for an alarm in the incidence, but disable the alarm= =20 itself, is not possible in the iCalendar spec, so we can't tweak libkcal to= =20 implement this. Besides, that would just add more complexity for no real=20 reason. > PS. I still think the default alarm time configuration setting should be > eliminated... And I still think we need it for the "toggle alarm" menu item... ;-) Cheers, Reinhold =2D-=20 =2D----------------------------------------------------------------- Reinhold Kainhofer, Vienna University of Technology, Austria email: reinhold@kainhofer.com, http://reinhold.kainhofer.com/ * Financial and Actuarial Mathematics, TU Wien, http://www.fam.tuwien.ac.a= t/ * K Desktop Environment, http://www.kde.org, KOrganizer / KPilot maintainer --nextPart6333951.8opIJ2E9yO Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBB6AQqTqjEwhXvPN0RAu8QAJ9BDtqoXNPNQbxm1Y/+pT2x8NSQDACbB+j7 YCKJX0b+c46MJwJge0UAZsY= =Z9lV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart6333951.8opIJ2E9yO-- --===============1572229069== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ kde-pim mailing list kde-pim@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-pim kde-pim home page at http://pim.kde.org/ --===============1572229069==--
