    Hi,

    new version of scout (0.0.7) is in extras-devel.

    Many new features:
    Buttons to enable/disable search categories (conversations, calendar, contacts) moved from the settings menu to
    the mainview.

    The menu has 3 buttons, one to enable/disable case-sensitive search, and the other two to configure calendar/conversations search.

    Conversations serach:
    You can select which kind of conversations (SMS and/or IM), and
    define a time frame (last day, month, year or user defined timeframe).

    Calendar search:
    The same timeframe selection works for calendar entries as well.
    For example you can search events from "one Year ago". This means, start search from one year ago, but find upcoming events as well.
    And you can select which event type (notes, tasks, events) and select the calendars (N900, Private, ...).

    Finally, the calendar entries are now editable.
    Most of the event attributes can be changed and saved from the event details view. As a personal requirement I added
    the feature to edit the interval attribute in recurrent events.

    As you may know, you can not edit all recurrence attributes in the stock calenar app. Some events have a complex recurrence rule. Other events aren't considered as complex recurrence, even so they have the interval attribute (every 2. week for example). For those events you can now change the interval attribute.

    Beware, this is in development. Please consider to backup your calendar data before your test this editing feature.

    regards
    Nicolai

    Thanks, a great job.

    Could you include searches in emails? And what tasks and notes?

    Search in emails is difficult, I may not have the time to
    implement this.
    Tasks and Notes are from the calendar application.

    Works fine here. Couple of requests

    - Would it be possible to search all the terms. I do not know correct term but basically same as google does as default.

    -would be nice if pressing right buttons after search would filter out that category.

    If I click a Filter Button on the right side while the search is still running I got a segmentation fault.

    After the search is done nothing happens if I select or deselect one of the buttons. I have to search again to apply the filter.

    Mh, and I would still prefer a stacked view with faded out search field to see more results at once.

    Otherwise it works just great!

    Thank you for finding this.

    Yes, these are no filters. They are there to enable/disable
    a search category.

    @PipoXtreme: I am sorry. I have no idea why the
    conversation search doesn't work. I really would like to
    find out, don't know how.

    Thanks Nicolai - seems to work very well!

    This is a very useful and esy to use app on N900.

    Is there any reason for the desktop shortcut icon being so small? It's not really a problem, but looks a bit at odds against other icons.

    Thanks once again for your hard work

    Ah, okay. In this point the UI design is not easy to grasp or I expected something else...
    In this case it works as designed.
