Just got my invite and am exploring it bit by bit - there's a small usability 'bug' that I think should be fixed though.

When you click on the globe to view world times when editing an event, its natural that clicking on the globe again will make it go away. But it doesn't. You have to click the 'Return to Calendar' button to get rid of the world time screen.

I'm not a big fan of the fact that the size of the interface seems to be fixed and doesn't grow/shrink and doesn't expand to fill my screen completely, even when my browser window is maximised. I'm using FF2 on Windows XP btw, and my screen resolution is 1400x1050. Otherwise its looking great.

Sam,

Thank you for pointing this. We will look into it soon.
Screen resolution is a known issue and we are working on it.

I agree. Should be able to click the globe or the arrow to collapse the window. Smile

Also, I'm having a lot of trouble setting up non-default time zones in the GlobalTimez window. I want to add CET and Mexico time zones... however, when I select one then the other, the first is over-written by the second.

How do I easily get the GlobalTimez window to show...
- Melbourne (shows correctly as the primary timezone I have set)
- London
- Central European Time
- Mexico

At the moment I can't find any way to do it.

Okay, I've managed to work out how to do it...

1. Click on a day
2. Click on the time scale
3. Click "More Secondary Time Zones..."
4. Click/Drag to Mexico
5. Rename to "Mexico"
6. Click update (not <Enter>)
7. Click on the time scale
8. Click "No Secondary Time Zone"
9. Repeat process for Central European Time
10. Repeat process for London (to get it back to the top)

There's no way to select or re-order your time zones in the GlobalTimez window. It's a very dead window which leads me to believe it's incomplete. You should at least be able to drag a time zone onto the "recent time zones" bar on the right, as well as rename and reorder the list.

Another loosely related issue...
Scrybe keeps bugging me about setting the primary time zone to match my computer's time zone. However, both times set are correct and match.

I'm running on Linux Ubuntu Edgy 6.10.

Vivski,

Would it be possible for you to check the time on your machine. If it is off by more than or less than 5 minutes then you are going to receive the same message.

Hope this helps.

The two times are exactly the same.
