| Ger: | Neues Ereignis |
| Label EN-US: | Titel: |
| Label Ger: | Titel: |
| Other: | Has to be spell checked if spell checking is ON |
Interaction Description:
- Response ListBox content:
- 'Click here to respond' default text to guide the user will be exchanged with 'I will decide later' if list box has been opened.
- 'Yes, I will attend'
- 'No, I will not attend'
- 'I will decide later'
- 'Remove from my calendar'
- Unconfirmed event invitations of the past will not be displayed except if it is a repeating event with a starting date in the past.
- Already confirmed and rejected invitation will not be displayed the next time the dialog is called.
- 'Tentatively' events are shown until they are events of the past, or they have been confirmed/rejected by the user.
- Response ListBox: 'Remove from my calendar' will send the 'No, I will not attend' status to the organizer and removes the event from the personal calendar
- (Default sorting is by or order of receipt. This is associated with 'Event Summary' column which is the default column).
- The 'Attend All Events' set all response list boxes to 'Yes, I will attend'
- The dialog is resizeable and the 'Event Summary' column gets stretched
