Description Georgios Varisteas 2012-02-17 11:16:19 UTC 
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.8.0) 
OS:                Linux

When the calendar widget is placed on a panel it shows the current day. It never refreshes when the day changes.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Just add it and wait

Actual Results:  
Nothing happens

Expected Results:  
At some point should change the day number shown.

When clicked, the pop up calendar shows current day selected with blue and the shown day selected with gray.

It is my opinion that the shown day should be the current day and allow for the user to select some other day too, displayed some other way.

The calendar icon in the panel does not update to the next day and thus is useless. Confirmed on 4.8.80.
Looking at the code, I can't find where the error is. The date is called from Plasma::Calendar::date() which gets it from CalendarTable::date().

When the QTimer in CalendarApplet::updateDate() gets the date, the date is not refreshed somehow.  I am not familiar with all this code and I am afraid I am stuck here to fix this...
