SUMMARY When I attempt to add a new calendar, the app does not give feedback whether the calendar was added or not. When it is not added, there is no error message stating why it failed, so I have nothing to go on when trying to solve the problem. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Move mouse pointer to lower left box on screen with "Birthdays & Anniversaries" and "Personal Calendar" options showing. 2. Right click within that box to bring up a menu and choose "Add Calendar..." 3. Enter the name of a new calendar, then click OK. 4. No new calendar item appears in the list with "Birthdays & Anniversaries" and "Personal Calendar" options. 5. No error message appears about the failed attempt to add a new calendar. Is it a permissions issue? Is the name of the calendar reserved or invalid? Am I using a freeware version that does not allow the addition of new calendars? Does the app have problems in Ubuntu 24? I'm flying blind here. OBSERVED RESULT EXPECTED RESULT SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: (available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a terminal window) Linux/KDE Plasma: KDE Plasma Version: KDE Frameworks Version: Qt Version: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
the "Add Calendar..." option should bring up a dialog where you can choose which type of calendar to add (DAV, Google, ETCSync, etc) If not, I have no idea what might be wrong. You do seem to be using a pretty old version

Pushed by winterz into branch 'master'. agenttypedialog.cpp - UI improvements Improve the UI: - if no resource type is selected then disable the Ok button - add a lineedit placeholder to indicate this is not the name of the account to add, but rather that this is a search line.
