386017 - Lightning needs Sunbird's "Include these days in Workweek" setting

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 372014

(Calendar :: Lightning Only, defect)

Description

[Shai Berger]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.4) Gecko/20070515 Firefox/2.0.0.4
Build Identifier: Thunderbird version 2.0.0.4 (20070604) + Lightning 0.3.1 (build 2007021403)

In some international locations, the work days are not mon-fri. In Israel, for example, they're sun-thu. Also, some people just have different workweeks.

Sunbird 0.3 was built to accomodate this, with a very nice setting for selecting work-days in its options (in the "Views" tab). Lightning 0.3.1 is missing this feature, and as a result, its workweek view is essentially unusable in Israel (and I suspect also in Muslim countries).

It's a missing feature, so one might argue that this is a request for enhancement. However, in view of its effect for a large class of users, I'm filing this as a bug.

Reproducible: Always

Eh, sorry about the double posting. I was able to fix this for myself, just after filing the bug, by hand-editing lightning.js, so a workaround is available. Hence, I don't consider it Major anymore. I still think it's a bug, though.

Thanks for your attention, and again, sorry.

This will be fixed in the upcoming 0.5 release. Wait a few days and see for yourself, when 0.5 comes out.
