Title:
current date not highlighted/wrong date highlighted
Status in “indicator-datetime” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Ubuntu 13.10, x86_64, indicator-datetime 13.10.0+13.10.20131023.
indicator-datetime provides *no highlighting at all* for the current
date. Worse, it provides faint highlighting for a different date (the
date I logged in?). See attached screenshot.
This is related to to several other bugs (below), but the other issues
are apx 2 years old and appear to be inactive.
Implications and related UI issues:
- It is too easy for a user to interpret the faint highlighting as today's
date.
- If another day has previously been clicked (even days earlier), it remains
highlighted. Users will likely expect that the highlighting corresponds to
today's date, not that of a click days earlier.
- The lack of a "go to today" button makes it very difficult to focus the
date for common use cases (What's today's date? What am I doing today?
Tomorrow?)
