GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 750506
Unable to clear past event notification
Last modified: 2021-07-05 14:03:45 UTC
If you made an appointment and forgot to close the notification in the extended calendar widget the day it is supposed to happen, you cannot close it anymore. With gnome-calendar 3.16.2 you must delete and undelete the event The image attached is a 4 screenshot montage: 2 events both in the shell calendar (above) and in gnome-calendar (below), and the event that cannot be 'unnotified' (left) and the event whose notification was closed (right)

That behavior is intentional[0], the designers explicitly asked for it. Marking for ui-review in case they want to reconsider. [0] https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-shell/tree/js/ui/calendar.js#n1210
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
