SUMMARY Events in the calendar plasmoid are capped at 5 per day. This is problematic for days with more than 5 events, since the calendar does NOT show the first 5 events, but rather selects 5 events to display at random. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Create more than 5 events for a single day in Kalendar 2. Verify that all events are displayed in the calendar plasmoid with PIM enabled OBSERVED RESULT Calendar plasmoid only shows 5 events (picked at random) EXPECTED RESULT Calendar plasmoid shows all events SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Gentoo (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.104.0 Qt Version: 5.15.8 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION -
It's reasonable that the calendar only shows a limited number of dots per day (tough there would be other options, like shrinking the dots or displaying a number if there are many), but the event list should show all events.
This seems to be the same bug as this one: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=443850 I find this limit dangerous, it can make you miss an appointment if you are not aware of it ;-) A patch increasing the limit is here https://github.com/voncloft/Voncloft-OS/blob/master/REPOS/plasma/plasma-workspace/event.patch - and also attached. What are the reasons for the limit? Is it because this is also the limit of dots to be drawn? How hard is it to have different limits for the dots and entries?
Created attachment 163642 [details] patch to increase the limit, see comment for source
