Bug ID: 524062
Summary: 'Skip' feature does not work as intended and causes
feature breaking issue
Classification: Applications
Product: kalarm
Version First 3.13.1.89
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
DESCRIPTION
The 'recurrence' feature works by updating the date/time value every time the
alarm is triggered (so if one day occurrence it adds a day to the date).
However if you use the 'Skip' feature (from context menu on an alarm) it skips
the next day but the date/time is not updated.
Therefore using the skip feature doesn’t just skip the next alarm it skips all
future alarms in effect, clearly not as intended or not intuitive in the least.
Luckily it happened on a Sunday for me so I wasn't fired for waking up late.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set up an alarm that recurs every day, using the recurrence feature.
2. Right click the alarm and select 'skip', because tomorrow you want to sleep
in.
OBSERVED RESULT
Notice that the alarm does not go off the next day either.
EXPECTED RESULT
The alarm goes off the day after next.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
CachyOS linux
KDE Plasma Version: 6.7.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.28.0
Qt Version: 6.11.1
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Solution is for whatever code that adds a day to the date/time to be triggered
at the time of the alarm, just not the alarm itself.
