* Current design: In the Calendar app, the preview pane is stuck
showing Today's events. In the other App areas, it shows events for
whatever day is selected in the mini-cal.
* Alternate design 1: Make the Calendar app consistent with the
other App areas. Add extra visual feedback in the mini-cal so the user
can select a day within a week...when they're in the week view, so the
user can control which day of the week they want to see in the Preview
pane.
I think that if we display the date clearly at the top of the Preview,
we do not need to visually mark the day in the minical. That way we can
also have the summary work also when in the Calendar app. The whole
problem we have right now is that the minical is used to select the
"current day" of the summary and the "current week" of the calendar.
So I'd choose a mash-up of Alternate design 1 and 2... :) i.e.:
- allow the minical to be clicked to select a date anywhere. This sets
the date for the summary but doesn't add any markup in the minical. Note
that it also selects the week when in Calendar mode.
- display the date at the top of the Preview
* Alternate design 2: In the Calendar app, we add a label: Today's
events at the top of the Preview pane.
Cheers,
