Description David Jarvie 2020-08-24 18:49:15 UTC 
[Reported in KAlarm Forum https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=229&t=167597]

When I go to File -> Templates..., then press New -> Display Alarm Template and create any kind of Template, I can see that the template is indeed created in the templates.ics file.

However I cannot create an alarm from that template.

    1. File -> Create Template... is greyed out and cannot be clicked.
    2. Pressing New and hovering over New Alarm from Template does not show any alarm. Clicking also does nothing.
    3. Clicking New -> New Display Alarm opens up the dialog to create a new alarm, but the button at the bottom that says Load Template... is greyed out.


Other indications that something is wrong:

    1. Going to File -> Templates... and removing a Template there, creates a pop-up error window with the message "Error saving alarm template"

File -> Create Template is supposed to be greyed out if no alarm is selected. If an alarm is selected it is enabled and opens the edit template dialog based on the selected alarm.

The other items are now fixed for KAlarm version 3.0.1, to be released in KDE Apps release 20.08.1, by commits 9b0ceed34a6772e7b69292e7e9252b1f9078bec1 and 36b27c3663b88220dc65aec1062674f53e004c2c.
