Still looking for feedback on this if anyone else time to test it

Just updated the market version to 0.9.2 which allows multi row widgets.

0.9.3-Beta now on market, various fixes to update logic and import/export ics files.

Multi row widgets now allow you to choose the top row and show upcoming for the others (settings->widget->event mode->chosen top, others upcoming).

Choose a row by opening the Quick Agenda, tap and hold then press "choose event"

I was looking for something to replace Smooth Calendar widget and after I tested few other, I tested Quick Agenda.

It was a litle pain to understand how to configure it, but after I managed to set it, I have to say that it is the agenda widget I was looking for!

It is working very good in my system (look at my sig ).

Feedback left on Android Market (John - Apl 17)...

Thanks for the feedback and I'm glad you like it!

Any suggestions on what I can do to make the setup easier to understand? (e.g. what did you have trouble with?)

Hard to make suggestions as I'm starting to get used to the settings...

Meanwhile, I think I found a little bug: I had four appointments for tomorrow and using the left side panel (Quick Agenda) I changed the day to April 20.
The display was refreshed ok after a minute.
After that, using again the Quick Agenda menu, I changed the dates again to April 23, but the displaying appointments were not refreshed (they were on April 20).
So, Quick Agenda had the 4 appointments showing on April 23 but the main widget menu was showing them on April 20 (when I clicked on each one to edit, the date was on April 20).

After I opened the settings menu for widget and for Quick Agenda and closed it, the display was corrected to April 23.



Something else I want to ask for, if it is possible to select a span for the days ahead which is going to be displayed in widget (e.g. only the following 3 days, etc.)


Thanks in advance
