Description Mohammed Sadiq 2016-04-07 03:25:27 UTC
As the events added are filled from top to bottom, the user perceives that the event is associated with the day above which the event actually belongs to (in month view).  Those who knows, they shall get it at first sight, but still confusing.

It might be nice if the events are filled from bottom-up, so that the event is more associated with the date it belongs to, especially for single event days. This is how applications like Android calendar fills the full day events in month view.
