Added
A new event no longer always lasts an hour. Settings → New event form →
Default duration sets how long one opens, and each calendar may keep its own
length underneath — 8 hours for the calendar you keep work shifts in, 30
minutes for the one you book calls in. A calendar without its own length
follows the default, switching calendars mid-form re-stretches the event, and
setting an end time by hand keeps it. An event another app hands over with only
a start gets the default too; one that names its own end — an .ics file, a
duplicate — keeps that length. All-day events are unaffected ([#54]).
Week and day view can be set to show more or less of the day at once, under
Settings → Views → Week & day → Hour height. Fit whole day sizes an
hour to your screen so all 24 hours are visible without scrolling — on a tall
phone the old fixed spacing showed only about half a day, so appointments
could sit below the fold all week. Compact and Comfortable are fixed steps
either side of the previous spacing, which stays the default. Both views share
the setting ([#56]).
Week and day view can be pinched with two fingers to set the hour height
directly, anywhere between and beyond the named steps. The time under your
fingers stays put as it zooms, so you keep your place in the day. A pinched
height is remembered and appears as Custom in the Hour height setting, so
tapping a named step there takes you back to it ([#56]).
Changed
The date in the top bar is now the way to jump: tapping the month, week or day
title opens the same date picker the sidebar's Jump to date offers, seeded
on whatever the bar is naming. A drop-down caret marks it as tappable. The
sidebar entry stays where it is ([#57]).
A reminder in the status bar is now Calendula's own mark — the calendar with
the bloom — instead of the generic calendar glyph it shared with the system's
date surfaces and every other calendar app. The status bar draws that icon as
a plain silhouette, so its shape is the only thing that could tell them apart
([#83]).
Event blocks now only draw text they can draw whole. One too short for a full
line shows no title rather than a sliced one, a block that cannot fit both its
title and its time keeps the title, and a block too narrow to hold more than a
syllable stays on one ellipsised line instead of stacking letters down the
block. Tapping and the spoken description are unchanged ([#56]).
Calendar colours are reworked so text on an event is always readable. They
were shaped by a brightness setting that does not match what the eye sees, so
whether a block got dark or light text depended on which hue you happened to
pick — an orange calendar took dark text while a red one beside it took light
— and colours landing in between were hard to read either way. Each colour now
keeps its hue and is moved clear of that middle: most become deep blocks with
light text, while naturally pale colours such as yellow stay pale and take
dark text, rather than being forced into a muddy brown. Dots, stripes and
icons are tuned separately from blocks, so they stay visible against the
background instead of sharing a colour meant to sit behind text. The setting
is now called Harmonise calendar colours; turning it off still shows the
raw colours from your calendar source ([#21], [#36]).
Fixed
The back gesture closes the sidebar instead of the app. With the drawer open,
swiping back left Calendula altogether rather than putting the sidebar away
([#114]).
The sidebar lines up. "Calendula", "View" and "Calendars" now share the left
edge of the rows under them, and the view, jump-to-date, Settings and calendar
rows sit on one vertical axis instead of each icon finding its own — the same
alignment the Settings screens use ([#114]).
The status- and navigation-bar icons follow Calendula's own light/dark choice.
Setting the app dark while the system stayed light — or the other way round —
left the clock and battery drawn for the system's theme, so they could sit
near-invisible against the app's own bar ([#70]).
