Reading this I suspect you also owned a palm pilot handheld some time ago. I loved this! I loved the whole device and it's software. No smartphone can beat that IMO.

Thanks again!

Meanwhile, there is a small update for Qalendar, 0.9.6:
  • Swipe left/right in the event window for next/previous event.

I wonder, would it be possible to implement that for the day view as well?

You are looking too far, as the inspiration came from how it usually works on dumbphones. :)

Yes. Qalendar 0.9.8:
  • Swipe left/right in the day window for next/previous day.
  • Updated the German translation.

A little over 3 hours from feature request to installation - some sort of record, surely?

I have been moved to 12 hour shifts, & I notice that Qalendar has an issue with events that span over midnight.

For example, if I try to schedule an event from 1800 hours to 0600 hours, Qalendar sets the beginning & ending time to 0600. To work around, I have been scheduling events that span midnight as 2 events; for example: 1800 to 2359 on one day, & 0000 to 0600 on the next day.

I must join in the chorus of praise for Qalendar, thought! It's one of the reasons I still use the N900 as my primary phone!

I cannot reproduce it. Make sure that you are setting "To" date before "To" time, because if you swap the order, you will be attempting to set something like "From: 2015-02-25 18:00, To: 2015-02-25 06:00", which means that the end date-time will be earlier than the start date-time. Qalendar will not allow that and will correct the start date-time.

If that is not the case, I will need more info, preferably detailed step-by-step instructions on what to click to trigger the bug.

When someone who speaks good Russian goes to https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/qalendar/ and provides the Russian translation...

EDIT: I have added a note to this effect to the wiki page.

You were correct! The bug was in the user.

How would keyboard input work on a palm pilot since they didn't have a (physical) keyboard? I much prefer keyboard input to eg the dodgy scrolly thing that maemo has for setting the time/date. Back in the day I used to make fun of my colleague who had a palm, my Psion 5 was far, far more capable :D
