1775105 - Clicking New Event in the event sidebar defaults to current date instead of chosen date in picker

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1791203

(Calendar :: Dialogs, defect)

Description

[dittnamn]

Steps to reproduce:

In the Today Pane, I have the mini calendar and the upcoming event list visible. Below the calendar there's a button to add a new event to the calendar.

Actual results:

When you click the New Event button, it opens up a prompt for adding a new event, but the selected event date is the current date instead of the day that is currently selected in the calendar above the button.

Expected results:

When you use the equivalent add event button inside the calendar tab, the selected date in the calendar is filled in as the suggested date for the new event. I think the same should happen when you add an event directly from the event sidebar.

I noticed that when a date is selected in the calendar tab in the background, that date is filled in instead of the current date.

Selecting a date in the Mini Month of the Today Pane, then selecting New Event, does use the selected date when I tested using 91.10.0 on Fedora Linux.

I can confirm the reporter's issue using version 102.0b8. Today's date will appear in the new event dialog.
