[Bug 1588376] Re: Not clear that an event is in-progress

 

I assumed past events would be removed from the indicator (it's not late
enough in the day for me to have seen that yet).

What use is showing previous old events in the upcoming events section
of the indicator? It can't imagine how that would ever be useful.

Title:
  Not clear that an event is in-progress

Status in Canonical System Image:
  Confirmed
Status in Ubuntu UX:
  New
Status in indicator-datetime package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When it is just past the start time of an event, the indicator lists
  that event as 'x minutes ago'. At an initial glance, this doesn't look
  much different from an event scheduled in the future, and takes me a
  couple of seconds to register that the event is in-progress.

  After an hour or so, the event is simply listed with its start time,
  which looks identical to a future event, and takes even more time to
  process that it is an in-progress event.

  Proposed solution: An in-progress event should display its time as
  'Now'.
