Enhancements to the calendar event design preview in release 1.0.7
In IBM Verse® 1.0.7, there are several enhancements to the calendar event design preview feature.
As a preview feature, the new calendar event design has some feature limitations and known issues. For more information, see Technote 0735123.
The calendar event design preview feature includes the following improvements in this release.
Original times shown when repeat meetings are rescheduled
When a repeat meeting is rescheduled, attendees see the original times followed by the new times when they open the reschedule notice.
Available meeting times for Room and Resources
When you schedule a meeting and use the available start times control , the availability of any selected Rooms and Resources is now factored in.
Meeting options when scheduling a meeting
- Mark Private to allow people who have access to manage your calendar to see the meeting time only and not the meeting content.
- Request Response to receive notifications when people respond to the invitation.
- Remind me: xx minutes before to alert you a specified number of minutes before the start of the meeting. The default value is controlled by your Alarms setting in Calendar preferences.
Process multiple updates to a meeting at once
When the owner of a meeting sends out multiple update notices, you are now asked whether you want to automatically process all of the notices. Previously, you had to process each notice individually.
Comments available for meeting cancellations
When canceling a meeting, you can provide a comment for the recipients to see when they open the cancellation notice.
Online meeting improvements
- A Join button lets you quickly connect to your online meeting:
- Online meeting details (meeting URL, password, dial-in number) in meetings that you schedule are hidden by default for simplicity. Click the arrow at the right if you want to see the details.
Meeting counters show proposed time
When a meeting invitee counters a proposed meeting time, the meeting owner now sees the proposed time in the counter notice.
Print option for events and notices
A print option is now available within calendar events and notices.
