Calendar - Eliminate Hidden Events

hexngone

The current design of the in-game Calendar (press 'L', select Calendar tab) is designed so that no more than 6 events can be displayed in one week. Whenever the total of the current and future weeks events total more than 6, the extra events are not shown on the calendar - until the date is advanced to no longer show the current week (and if the following two weeks events do not exceed 6 events as well).

Next week (showing events that begin this Thursday and are hidden when viewing this weeks calandar):

This issue is focused only on the in-game calendar display - I am aware that next weeks events are advertised on the current weeks 'Home' page.

Suggested action:

1) Limit the number of consecutive events to 6 so all are visible in any given week.

2) Redesign the Calendar tool to only display two weeks per page allowing the height of each weekly display to increase to showing 9 events at once (the new limiting total).

The current design does the players a great disservice by not properly alerting them to future events beginning on the Current Thursday. For this week that is Hell Pit and 2x Professions.

Thank You.

It is not 'current week'. It is just one day you choose, April 26 (today). It shows what is available on April 26 for that ONE day (today).

For https://imgur.com/WoP0cNi , it was also showing April 26 because you did not click any date in May.

There is 'upcoming' tab and that is the one I use to check future event.

I never view the left hand top pane (nor did I notice the other two tabs until you pointed them out). I have always looked at the bar chart of the right hand side and moused over the bars to read the details of what event is showing as a pop-up/tool-tip. My point is that there is not enough room in the bar chart to the right to show more than 6 event bars ... hence there are some events that are hidden on the bar chart side of the display.

I suspect my behavior has been tempered by the continued disabling of the hourly event listing on the left (that I do check for Marauder/Dragonflight times). Eventually I, as a user, ignore what I cannot trust as reliable.

Thanks for pointing out the additional tabs, they will be helpful in the future. They are not a fix for the problem I'm noting here as that is specific to the bar chart display.
