Description David Spain 2005-09-16 20:09:39 UTC
Version:           3.4 (using KDE 3.4.0 Level "b" , SUSE 9.3)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.5 20050117 (prerelease) (SUSE Linux)
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.11.4-21.8-default

I months displayed in the Datepicker frame should not scroll
the month of a selected day to the left hand edge of the frame.

Often I like to have my months displayed in the form:

prev month.    curr month.    next month.

But whenever I pick a date from one of the months above
(except the prev month) that month is automatically scrolled
to the left edge an I get the next two future months displayed
instead w/o asking for them as in:

month selected.  next month    month after that.

I find this highly annoying. Months should not scroll unless
I tell them to by picking a month outside the three month
range already shown or when I use the month arrow buttons.

Also I find the << < > >> arrow buttons non-intuitive.
I'd expect the < > buttons to retard/advance by days and
the << >> buttons to retard/advance by months instead of the
current way which is just the opposite.

Ok, I just realized that the << >> scroll by years whereas < > scroll
by months. I understand the behavior, but it would seem more practical
to have a day scroller as well, but I suppose one could just click on
the day in the frame. So I'll retract my comment about the << < > >>
buttons.

Reassigning all KOrganizer bug reports and wishes to the newly created 
korganizer-devel mailing list.

This behavior has been fixed in KDE 3.5.something. So I'm closing this bug report.

Thanks for the report!

Cheers,
Reinhold
