Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 216959

(Calendar :: General, defect)

Description

When editing an event, the main calendar is frozen.  It is sometimes helpful to
see what is going on in future or past months while creating the new event. 

So if I need to know something about past and future months while creating an
event, I have to cancel that event creation, write down on paper all the
relevant information from the other months, and then go back and re-enter the
new event information.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In the Month view, double click on a day to bring up the "New Event" dialog.
2. Without closing the "New Event" dialog, bring mouse focus back to the main
calendar window.
3. Click on any of the previous/next month buttons.

Actual Results:  
Nothing

Expected Results:  
The main window should continue to behave the way it does when the "New Event"
dialog is not there.

Alternative workaround: save the partially edited event (click ok), navigate to
the other month, then reopen the partially edited event (visible in the event
listing above the main grin, at least with an appropriate filter like All Events).
