    Post [Q] adding event to android calendar without showing the calendar

    You'll need to use the CalendarContract API, and add a certain permission. This is only possible in 4.0 and up, however.

    Fixed that annoying bug that was causing us to get empty timetables every time we opened the app. Turns out it was setting the current week to week 0 under some very specific, but not unusual circumstances. You needed to exit the app in week 1 with week 2 being empty. This is fixed, it was a...

    Hm... I suppose I should set the name textview to have a maximum width and ellipsis out. I'll do that. Actually, this is possible! It's a stock Android feature, a bit hidden away. Tap on any of the numbers and you can enter them with the keyboard. This should be easy to fix! I'll give it a...

    The first beta! There's some neat improvements here. The most important thing is that the week system works a lot better. You can add weeks from the Action Bar dropdown, and they are removed automatically if they're empty. You can have any amount of weeks in your timetable now! Changelog...

    I've decided that I'm not going to implement tasks in Timetable 1. This means there aren't any new features to implement and I can focus on bug fixes from now on. Tasks may come in a 1.X update, as will several other features, but I really want to get Timetable 1 out ASAP. No more alphas, we're...

    So it looks like alpha13 didn't compile properly, or something went wrong when I signed it. All of the errors are 'class not found', so basically, Android doesn't want to acknowledge that the code exists. I think the problem is that ViewPagerIndicator didn't build properly. I'm going to try...

    I'm back on track after a string of delays. I've altered Timetable's roadmap - finalised the 1.0 feature set, and decided how the alphas will proceed. The only 1.0 feature left to implement is Tasks, and that will be the next alpha. Once that is done, all future 1.0 alphas will be bug fixes, and...

    Yes, I could make it work right back to 1.5 probably, but it wouldn't be as useful. The main point of this is that it uses the new priorities feature in Jelly Bean to hide away when it can, and come up to the top when it's urgent.

    I've solved the notification setting glitching and resetting to None, however, I wasn't experiencing the issue you had, firtvid20, so I have no idea if it's still present. Also, please note, notifications are probably going to end up being a premium feature.

    That happens for me too. I'm investigating it. It also happened when it was a checkbox, the resetting to unchecked. I've had some difficulty with the notifications setting. I might scrap it and try a different method. (the setting, not the notification. The notification works really well).
