Description mark 2001-11-18 17:20:23 UTC 
If you set start of the week to Sunday the week view starts on a Saturday:

 +-----+-----+
 | Sat |     |
 +-----+ Wed |
 | Sun |     |
 +-----+-----+
 |     |     |
 | Mon | Thu |
 |     |     |
 +-----+-----+
 |     |     |
 | Tue | Fri |
 |     |     |
 +-----+-----+

When it should start on a Sunday:

 +-----+-----+
 | Sun | Wed |
 +-----+-----+
 |     |     |
 | Mon | Thu |
 |     |     |
 +-----+-----+
 |     |     |
 | Tue | Fri |
 |     |     |
 +-----+-----+
 | Wed | Sat |
 +-----+-----+

This would mean splitting Wednesday across both columns, but that's better
than starting on the wrong day.
Comment 1 Damon Chaplin 2001-11-20 00:13:53 UTC 
The fact that it starts on Saturday is intentional.

I don't really like the idea of splitting Wednesday.

Another option would be to use 8 same-sized cells, e.g.

  Sun | Thu
  ---------
  Mon | Fri
  ---------
  Tue | Sat
  ---------
  Wed |

That would mean redoing quite a bit of code, though.

Personally I don't mind it as it is, so I think we should only
change it if many users are bothered.
Comment 2 Heath Harrelson 2002-06-07 16:28:17 UTC 
Since 1) this was done on purpose, and 2) I can't find a single other
user complaint about this, I'm marking this NOTABUG in an effort to
clean the bugzilla.
Comment 3 JP Rosevear 2002-06-07 18:08:31 UTC 
This is actually valid.  Marking as future.
Comment 4 André Klapper 2004-08-28 02:01:15 UTC 
still valid for evolution1.5-1.5.91.0.200407250730-0.snap.ximian.8.1.

Comment 6 André Klapper 2004-12-15 16:32:07 UTC 
this is a duplicate of 14645.

i also thought about adding dependencies instead of marking as a dup,
but this is definitely the same since it's just about seperating
saturday and sunday.
