GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 225816
Can't edit existing alarm / reminder, only add or remove
Last modified: 2013-09-13 00:54:17 UTC
Description of Problem: if you set extended reminder-options with the "Options"-button in the "reminder"-tab for calendar entries, you can't view or edit them once you added the reminder (using the "add"-button) Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. open or create an appointment 2. select the "reminder"-tab 3. press the "options"-button 4. set some options (like "repeat alarm 3 times every 5 minutes) 5. confirm the extended options using "ok"-button 6. add the reminder using the "add"-button 7. close the appointment 8. open this appointment again 9. select the "reminder"-tab Actual Results: you see a reminder, but there's no way (or at least no obvious way) to view or edit the extended options Expected Results: there's an "edit" button that opens a dialog to view and edit existing appointments and their extended options (or something similar)
still not possible to edit in evolution-1.4.6.0.200403080631-0.snap. ximian.8.1, gnome2.4, suse9.
very related to bug 248109 (in both cases the "options"-button does not work properly)! since some ui-changes for 1.5.7/2.0 have taken place (http://primates.ximian.com/~anna/editors/meet-reminders.png), i wonder if these options will still be available and if this is still an issue...
in evolution1.5-2.0.0.0.200409211947-0.snap.ximian.8.1 one can only add or remove reminders (=alarms), not edit them. so changing the subject to reflect this.
still valid in 2.3.5.1 i'd like to vote for this. :-)

Apologies for any spam... cc'ing usability-maint on all Evolution usability bugs. Filter on EVO-USABILITY-SPAM to ignore.
The UI has changed a lot and with the current alarm setting button on appointment (meeting, task) editor, this bug is not reproducible. One can change alarm settings at any later point in time. So changing the status to OBSOLETE.
totally wrong. reopening. i cannot change an existing alarm, because i cannot edit it. i have to delete it and set up a new one.
