Public bug reported: This issue was raised in discussion with mzanetti, who would like reminders (created with reminder-app) to be shown in the drop-down menu with that app's icon.
datetime currently is implemented with "everything is either a clock-app alarm or a calendar-app event", which is not an approach that will scale to 3rd party apps. I suggest we add something like an x-unity-alarm-icon tag to the ical components to let clients specify their own icon as a string that gets passed to unity8. See related bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator- datetime/+bug/1426519 for letting the clients, rather than datetime, specify the behavior when the menuitems are clicked. ** Affects: indicator-datetime (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Assignee: Charles Kerr (charlesk) Status: Confirmed ** Summary changed: - Need a mechanism for specifying an icon for an appointment + Need a mechanism for specifying an ical event's icon ** Changed in: indicator-datetime (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: indicator-datetime (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: indicator-datetime (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Charles Kerr (charlesk) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to indicator-datetime in Ubuntu.
