When I want to drag occurrence of repeating event there is no confirmation if I would like to move single or group of occurences.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create new repeating event (repeat for 5 days)
2. Drag and drop first occurrence
Actual Results:  
No confirmation if I want to move one occurrence or all
Single occurrence was moved

Expected Results:  
confirmation should appear like it used to be

Looks like regression because it worked before, right now confirmation appears only when you want to edit event

I found out it when wanted to verify bug 352862

This was an executive decision made in bug 352862 and bug 336952 comment 8.

-> not blocking the 0.3 release
--> WONTFIX

After spending some time working with Damian to understand the details, the real problem appears to be that moving a single instance of a recurring event creates an EXDATE, and the undo simply changes the exception, rather than removing the EXDATE entirely.

We decided on the QA chat this bug doesn't block 0.7.

Does this still happen with the latest 1.0b2pre nightlies?

Antony, can you reproduce?

Comment 7

Yes, just tried this with a recurring event and it alone was moved, no request to adjust the rest of them

I have had this a few times and a problem also when not the first instance, I am not asked if future instances need to move as well to be in Sync, even it originally set on a date preceeding the event I want to move
