Steps to reproduce:

Exact component : Calendar (ex- Lightning extension) => you should really create an entry for this "component" , that it is part of ThB!

Using new ThB/Calendar Interface in ThB 91.1.2 (64bits)

  • Double click on an event
  • Now I have a new dialog box that pops up only displaying the event content
  • It requires clicking "edit" to actually edit the content of the event

Actual results:

  • Such a new behavior is really annoying
  • What was a simple action (double click + edit) has now become a uselessly very long process (double click + move mouse to Edit button + click + actual edit). It more than doubles the time necessary for a simple edition of an event.
  • It does not bring any advantage with previous working, where someone that wanted to display & not edit the details could simply double click, then cancel.
    Seeing the event details can also (and a lot more simply be accessed by passing mouse over event & displaying a tool tip
  • In summary : Very bad UX choice...

Expected results:

  • Please bring back the more simple & intuitive previous behavior
    (Double clicking on an event should enable direct edition of the event
