The manner in which events are displayed in the week view appears random. By this i mean that if multiple events (different categories) are scheduled for the same time slot, the order in which the events are listed appears randomly varied. As a result, the display is often less than optimally organized, occupying more space than needed. (Events that could be placed in the same column are not necessarily) To see an illustration, view the Activities/Platform Tennis page which is public on the www.martinsdam.org web site.

Is there a way to force a certain order? I have tried unsuccessfully. If not, perhaps some work should be done on this to clean up the presentation.

Regards

Hans

Hans,

I forget which order in which the events are by default sequenced, and to be honest I have no idea how the logic works in the week display, that is very much a black box to us. I think the data in 5.0.2 is ordered by start and end date, which could leave a random order. In 5.0.3, they will be retrieved by start date and then entry order (EventID). I'm not sure what effect that will have on your particular setup.

Roger;

THanks for the reply. I note your intentions for 5.0.3 but have some qualms. Entry order seems the least desirable sort order (after start date). THis because the order in which events are created has nothing to do with any presentation. I would suggest something like category or priority or both as a better alternative. Ideally, it would seem that specifying an 'order' parameter like some of the other modules support would be more preferred.

Regards

Hans
