Adding a Lightning event on a future date

When adding a future date event from the Lightning calendar Today Pane (with mini-calendar displayed), I click on the date when I want to add the event, then click the New Event link below the calendar. This brings up the New Event dialog, but the dates in the Start and End fields default to today's date, not to the future date I selected in the Today Pane, so I have to re-select the desired date in those fields. In older Lightning versions, those preselected dates used to default to the date I selected in the Today Pane, which is obviously when I want to add the event. Is there any way I can get this old behavior back in the current version (102.2.2)? If not, I'd like to request that this behavior be added, or at least have the option to be added, in a future release. Thank you for listening.

There has been several updates in recent weeks, so it might not be too long before one is available.

I'm using Windows 10 OS and Thunderbird version 102.4.1

Testing: I have two calendars Home and gmail - so tested on each. Enable 'Today Pane' Select 'Events' Use drop down arrow to see Mini Calendar and select 23 dec (date in future) Date in Today Pane now says: 23 Fri Dec 2022 CW51 Below this in Today Pane Click on 'New Event' New Event window opens and the auto start date: 23/12/2022 Create event - Get Turkey from Butcher

Also tested in main Calendar view. Right click on a date in future and select 'New Event' New Event shows start date as the date selected.

I'm not able to reproduce. All is working correctly.

Do you get the same if you restart Thunderbird in 'Troubleshoot Mode' ? Help > Troubleshoot Mode click on Restart Select to continue in Troubleshoot mode. Then test.

Menu icon > Settings > Calendar Events and Tasks subsection What settings have you selected ?

The reason I ask is this - I'm discovering that I can change the Length of event or task and this is reflected in the New Event/Task. But it does not seem to matter what I select for Start or Due date. New Event in Calendar where today is in focus chooses today date and next hour of current time. New Event where I've selected a different date, inserts that date and always uses the hour setting depending upon current time.

eg: If I set Start Date as Tomorrow then it is ignored.

So it would be interesting to know what you have in the Settings for Calendar.

Toad-Hall, thanks for responding. I went through the same sequence you described but my results are still as I first described -- i.e., date in New Event dialog always defaults to today's date, not the date I had selected in the Today Pane. I usually keep mini-month displayed at all times, but tried it both ways, no difference.

I also tried Troubleshoot Mode as you suggested, no change -- New Event dialog still defaults to today's date.

Here are my Events and Tasks settings: Default Event and Task Length: 120 minutes Start Date: None Due Date: None Edit in a tab...: not checked Prompt before deleting...: checked Optimize colors...: not checked

This is on a fresh install of Kubuntu 22.04, but I had the same problem on my previous install of Linux Mint 20, KDE Plasma (not sure what version, about a year old), on the same computer. If I remember right, though, I wasn't having that problem on Mint until fairly recently, maybe just the last couple of months.

Maybe a KDE thing? What distro and desktop environment do you use?

I've been bug searching and located this:

But the last comment in that bug implies this should be fixed in Thunderbird 102.3.2 which may explain why my version 102.4.1 does not see the issue. I'm using Windows 10 OS and Thunderbird version 102.4.1

You mention OS Kubuntu 22.04, but what version of Thunderbird are you using? Did you get a downloaded from official site here: https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/all/

Thanks for your research! My version of Thunderbird is the latest in the Ubuntu repository, 102.2.2, so before the bug was fixed. I did download and run the latest Linux version from Thunderbird's web site, but it doesn't integrate into my system, and I'm not comfortable trying to do that manually, so will hope that the Ubuntu repository will soon be updated. Or maybe I'll see if I can find a .deb file or a newer version in another distro's repository.

I appreciate the help.

Thanks again! I might give that a try if there's not an updated package soon.
