ALEC_HHC  Hi,

The .ics/vcalendar import feature does not currently import alarms. I am planning to add this feature in the future, but it may take me a while. The other feature you appear to want is an option to automatically add alarms to new events; again this is feasible but will take a while to implement. As I'm just one person working on this in my spare time, development doesn't quite have the resources the iCal team no doubt have!

cheers

ALEC_HHC  Hi,

Thanks for letting me know. Sorry about the lack of documentation, I develop this in my spare time and the documentation has suffered as I have been focusing on getting the software less buggy. I hope to update the website soon with more (and more up to date) information.

thanks

ALEC_HHC  Hi,

Could you tell me if you are getting an error when you import a calendar and what it is? Or does data simply not appear?

I will list the steps for getting a calendar from iCal into PreMinder:

Go to iCal and select the calendar you want to export. Choose 'Export...' from the 'File' menu. Save the file on your desktop. It should have an extension that is '.ics'. Open PreMinder and choose 'Import Calendar' from the 'File' menu. Select the file you saved to the desktop and click 'OK'. A progress bar will appear in the large date in the palette on the left. Your data should appear in the calendar.

ALEC_HHC  Hi,

I have now reproduced the bug at a screen resolution of 1024x768 as well. I have just posted a 0.5.0 update which should fix the problem. Please let me know if it works for you,

thanks

ALEC_HHC  Hi,

The only way I can reproduce this error is with a low screen resolution (800 x 600). Could you tell me what screen resolution your monitor has?

thanks

ALEC_HHC  Hi, not sure what you mean exactly by 'business weeks' but if you want the week display to start on a Sunday then you can set that. Choose from menu 'File > Preferences' and click on the 'Appearance' button. You can set whether to start the week on a Monday or a Sunday here.

ALEC_HHC  Hi, I have posted an update (0.4.2) which should fix the iCal import problem. Let me know if you are still experiencing trouble.
