Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Calendar :: Tasks, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.5) Gecko/20060731 Ubuntu/dapper-security Firefox/1.5.0.5
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20060507 Mozilla Sunbird/0.3a2

When you copy or cut a task and paste it into another day, it actually gets pasted on the next day. For example, you're moving a task from day 10 to 6, it'll get pasted to day 7 even when day 6 was clearly selected.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Copy or cut an existing task
2.Move to another day and hit paste
Actual Results:  
The task will get pasted in the next day to the one you selected.

Expected Results:  
The task should be pasted in the currently selected day at the moment of perfoming the paste action.

I tried this using keyboard shortcuts and mouse shortcuts. Same results.

A couple thing that might matter here:
-What view are you copying/pasting in?
-What timezone are you in?
-What time is it in that timezone when you were testing this?

Can you try changing those things (change the time on your system and restart Sunbird for the last two) and see if that changes things?

Also, please try with a nightly build, so see if anything has improved there.

   I just tried it on all views and it always moves pasted content one day.
> -What timezone are you in?
   My time zone is America/Costa_Rica -06:00 GMT 
> -What time is it in that timezone when you were testing this?
   It's 6:38 pm. Events copy/pasted are at 16:30 and 17:30 (24 and 25th August)

  I changed my timezone to America/North_Dakota_Center and pastes worked as they should. Switching back to my zone brought the bug back so you were right about the time zone being the bug trigger :)

***This bug has been fixed in the nightly builds***

Bugs are only marked fixed if we can point to specific code changes that went away.  This one should be marked WORKSFORME.
