Overnight events create empty date entry on eventless next day

I'm having a problem with overnight events.

In my case when an event spans the night and the day after doesn't contain an event, iDeskCal will still show the date in the floating window.

Here's a screenshot to illustrate my point:


In this case, the event on Friday is an overnight event. Saturday doesn't contain any events (except the one spanning from Friday), but it's still displayed by iDeskCal..

(I replied in another topic, but after re-reading the original poster's question, his wasn't really related to mine. So I opened a new topic; sorry for the double post)

All three of them are mentioned in my previous post.

"Yet the defaults are:
⌘Space = Add event
⌘→ = Show ToDos
⌘Space = Manage ToDos"

⌘Space overrides 'Search in Spotlight' system shortcut.
⌘→ overrides 'Move to end of line' system shortcut.

That's strange.. I'm running v2.2.1 and haven't had any previous versions installed.

Yet the defaults are:
⌘Space = Add event
⌘→ = Show ToDos
⌘Space = Manage ToDos

I zapped the preferences with AppZapper to be sure my old preferences weren't being used..

My to do list is not sorting by priority. The list in iCal is properly sorted, but the order in iDeskCal isn't the same..

There are entries from 2 calendars, don't know if it matters. It goes like this (in iDeskCal):

entry -- Home -- Low
entry -- Home -- Medium
entry -- Work -- High
entry -- Work -- Low

Default hotkey settings override Mac OS X

Hello,

The default shortcut (hotkey) settings override Mac OS X shortcuts, which is a big fault..
As far as I can remember, one overrides Spotlight search and another one overrides moving the cursor one word in any text entry.

Auto-update window height

Hello,

A great feature for iDeskCal would be to automatically update the window height based on the amount of appointments to be shown (determined by the 'Max days to show' preference option).

lopoz replied on October 07, 2009 13:10 to the question "Refresh gone" in HashBang Industries:

How often does iDeskCal refresh itself?

IMO it should refresh at least once a day, preferably the first time you boot/resume your computer from sleep on a new day.

This would be an awesome feature!

To get around resizing to a huge window, maybe a preference could be implemented where one could set the max number of events/tasks to auto resize to? After reaching that number, the window size wouldn't change anymore. Just a thought..

Any update on this issue? New version doesn't fix it AFAIKS

@Alexandra Peters: I'm not talking about the errors they make, that's fine!

@seph2409: I'm talking overtaking, and the opponent going so far out of his way to run me off the track.. Now I don't know if you've ever watched DTM or anything like that, but the drivers don't take themselves out of the race to stop you from overtaking..

Just my 2 cents..

Opponents want to kill me!

The AI seems to be too aggressive.. They other really go out of their way to run me off the track, even ending up in the grass themselves. I don't think this is very 'real racing' ;P

(I also sent this in through email, but thought this would give other people a chance to say if they agree..)

Thanks for looking into it!
