We pushed a small update to the Backpack calendar this weekend. The push was mostly bug fixes and iCalendar-based optimizations, but we did slip in something especially useful: The time of an event now shows up on the calendar. Before you had to mouse over the item to reveal the date, or click the item to see the date in the sidebar, but now we display it in small grey time right after the event title.

We hope you find this little addition useful.
Thanks for your continued support.

on my computer, the date is displayed in a bigger font size than the event title.

Thanks for this addition. I had been typing the times in parenthesis as part of the appt. so that I could see them. This makes it much easier.

Maxime, you likely have your browser set to not display fonts below a certain size. Then your browser substitutes them with the default size.

Thanks for the update! Now if only there was an option to put Saturday and Sunday at the end of the calendar week.

It would be great to get the times to show start and end times. Also being able to move events up and down within a day would be helpful. Sometimes there are events that you want listed first, and depending on when and what you add, they may be listed in a random order.
