Description C de-Avillez 2007-12-18 14:44:41 UTC
ubuntu original bug: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/128174

When an alarm list is shown with multiple entries (i.e., multiple alarms are displayed), selecting an action on any entry closes the alarm display. Instead the alarm list should be kept open, allowing for other selections to be made.

Per user's comment:

"Instead I want it to remain there in the alarms list dialog box and don't want it to vanish for x amount of time (which will happen by clicking snooze).

You might understand what (or why) I am asking (this) after knowing my way (or a group of users' way) to to handle this (alarms) feature.

When a set of alarms pop up in a list, I usually prefer the list to remain in the dialog (instead of snoozing after every x amount of time) and close selective items as and when the work related to that item is finished. Currently I have to snooze all the unfinished items to close the targeted item.

So in short the feature requested is "I don't want to snooze any of the items but close only selective items and the remaining items should persist in the dialog till I close them (instead of getting vanished for some time by snoozing them)."

I clicked *Dismiss* on one item out of two reminders, ignoring the *Dismiss all* button at the bottom. The window did not close. Evolution 3.8.5 under gnome-shell.
