Hey Nicolai,
Thanks for the 0.9 update I really like the 'Show age' feature!
However, I did notice that the 'Update when switch to the desktop' function slowed the phone down quite a bit..
Maybe it checks too often?
Great work in any case

I've noticed a really minor problem with version 0.9 (which is really good. Thanks Nicolai). I use the Spanish localization, so it could just be a translation problem.
During an event (let's say 10:30 for an event from 10:00 to 11:00), the event is still showing but it's starting time is replaced by the word "Hoy" (Today) while I guess should be "Ahora" (Now).
Do other people, in other languages, see the same?
I have never considered to distinguish those cases. Good idea.

I will take a look, but as far as I know, my widget does not change
any events in the calendar. Just shows them. Do you mean
it changes the time of the events, as they are in the calendar
application. Or are they just wrongly displayed.

Great work!! Just one request, could you please make Month name as same Font size and color as Day name?

I keep getting reminders but that appointment is no longer visible in the widget. Does it make sense to keep appointments in widget until user hits "Stop" button on Alarm screen or until Alarm is active?
So, my calendar widget can not know which appointments are
dissmissed.

use some apps which updates the calendar db in the background,
without using the calendar-backend.
Otherwise the event-list should be always uptodate automatically.
(It listens on signals for the calendar dbchange and updates
accordingly) You don't need this option, as long as you don't have a sync-app.
Thank you all for your feedback.

It happened to me that I entered some meetings being in a time-zone and then traveled to another time-zone. In the new time-zone all the meetings had their time updated so that it happened at the same moment they where initially planned (as if they where actually stored in GMT in the db). I don't know if this is a bug or a feature of the calendar, but at that time I was not using this widget (which makes it non-guilty
).

Is it possible to add a feature like "Show always the next birthday(s) X days in advance" which shows the birthday(s) at the bottom X (X = 1-14) days in advance even if there are more appointments before the birthday? Would be nice to use as a backup

You can put more than one widget on your desktop.
For example, I have one widgets for events from the default calendar
and a second one for birthday events.

Ah, okay.
But I don't have enough space for that so an option like that would be nice.

Hi Nicolai,
Do you think it would be possible to link a contact to an event? Imagine you're in the event (checking or changing) and want to call the person. A link to the contact might be useful and certainly save a few touches.
Otherwise, great additions to the current calendar!

EDIT: Systemcrash, it appears that you are right. I changed the time zone and the event time changed. I now kind of remember that I once found my phone in the pacific timezone and changed it to my time zone (GMT+1) which changed times dramatically. The weird thing is that it did not change the times for events that have no alarms! (or were those the events I synchronized from my E90 when I moved to the N900? I am not sure).
NB. Nicolai, when I changed the time zone the first time the widget disappeared. I rebooted the phone but it did not appear again so I had to add it. I changed the the time zone twice after that but it did not disappear. Any ideas?

Thanks Nicolai fo rprompt response:: "No, I like it how it looks :-)"
I just thought that month name in small letters with blue color might not stand out well as it would in white color!! Mainly because of the blue desktop background.
But many thanks for this great widget.
