Thank you for video, will try to fix.

Texter, thanks for the video! I was beginning to wonder whether I was the only one affected.

Here is a new, empty database with an event spanning 5 days, 14 hours — for comparison, in both 7.5 RC1 and 7.24.

The event as scheduled:

Here's how it displays in 7.5 RC1...

...and (correctly) in 7.24:

To recap: This issue occurs (for me) for any event that spans more than one day, regardless of how many days, provided it is not an all-day event. This affects new as well as previously created events.

Here is an example using an event that lasts an hour into the next day.

Hope this gives you some clues!

Thanks, yes, we think we reproduced the error with multi-day events and fix will be coming with next build.

Really disappointed that the email STILL does not support simple forwarding rules. When I am away, I need selective emails from particlular email clients to be forward to certain email addresses for action.

Back to Thunderbird until someone at EssentialPIM understands how important these rules are.

Here's another anomaly I've found. This one is not specific to 7.5 RC1 — I can replicate it in 7.24 — but I'll post it here in case it can easily be fixed.

Here's a fresh database containing only 15 contacts and 3 groups.

Selecting "My Contacts" displays all 15 and counts them correctly.

Select a group in the list, for example the second. "Group members" in the right-hand panel shows the correct number (in this case, 2), while the number in the status bar is not updated.

Select the third group. "Group members" displays correctly, while the status bar is changed to the number of members in the previous group displayed.

Clicking in the empty space below the list of groups updates the number in the status bar, which then shows the correct number.

Basically, the number in the status bar is being updated too late. It displays the number of members in the group previously selected. Sometimes this is rectified by selecting "My contacts" again and then an individual group, but sometimes not.

Just wanted to say, that's some good documenting of problems there.

EPIM has some really strong advocates when it comes to reporting issues and suggesting improvements -- screenshots, detailed steps for reproduction, videos... It's a good community.

Piman314, please update to 7.51- do you still see the issue there? If yes, a video would be best to demonstrate the issue. So far we were not able to reproduce the issue.
