The finished installation uses the calendar file from the previous Mint 16 installation and KOrganizer 3.11.x The first machine is a Toshiba Laptop with Intel Core 2 Duo CPU, 3.7 GB of RAM using an Intel graphics controller. The second machine machine is an HP desktop with a AMD Athlon IIX4 630 Processor x 4, 15.4 GB of RAM and NVIDEA graphics card. Did a clean install of Mint 17 on July 30, 2014 Then installed KOrganizer 4.13.2 First, before adding any previously used calendar file, I used Settings:Manage Categories to establish the calendar categories I normally use. The dialog box, now named "Manage Tags - KOrganizer", contained no entries. When entries were added in alphabetical order, the categories or tags are then listed in reverse order in the Settings:Configure KOrganizer:Colors and Fonts settings box and also in the New Entry dialog box. The apparent workaround is to initially enter the new Tags in reverse order so that most used categories are at the top of the list. I actually like the use of check boxes for the tags which will lessen the accidental entry of incorrect tags found in previous editions. Second, category or tag colors designated using the Colors and Fonts settings box only work while KOrganizer remains open. As soon as KOrganizer is closed and reopened, the designated colors are lost. Category Colors2 section of .kde/share/config/korganizerrc contains the both the categories and colors: [Category Colors2] BRCalendar=191,217,255 BirthdayCalendar=255,255,0 ChurchCalendar=223,191,255 Education/RVSrs=222,188,133 HolidayCalendar=255,221,0 HouseRepair=221,221,221 KatyCalendar=249,202,222 Rotary=128,179,255 SpecialEvent=255,221,0 TravelCalendar=128,255,128 The problem apparently reported in several distributions: Arch Linux, Kubuntu, Linux Mint, and Xubuntu https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=335559 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=334793 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdepim/+bug/1311152 Are there any workarounds, for example, manually editing a different configuration file, that would help? KOrganizer is a startup program on my computers and one of the first thing I see in the office every morning. Any help appreciated. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
