Reminder Defaults to Popup #3

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Use the reminder feature

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Result should ideally be by default an email notification, not a popup.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
N/A

Please provide any additional information below.
Having the default notification set as an email would be more effective
than using popups.

Maybe this helps as a temporary Workaround:

And don't forget to try my new Google Calendar Labs PlugIn!?

Not possible as it means changing every single event! Can you build the 
notification
option in to the code?

You can set the default notification for all entries in one calendar:

http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=83117#

"Default notification settings

To change your default notification settings, follow these steps:

1. In the calendar list on the left, click the down-arrow button next to the
appropriate calendar, then select Notifications. (Alternatively, click the 
Settings
link at the bottom of the calendar list, then click the Notifications link to 
the
right of the appropriate calendar.)
2. In the Event reminders section, select the reminder method from the 
drop-down menu
and enter the corresponding reminder time (between zero minutes and four weeks 
in
advance of the event). If you'd like to add additional default reminders, simply
click Add another reminder.
3. You can also choose to be notified of specific activities on the calendar by
selecting the appropriate options in the Choose how you would like to be 
notified
section.
4. Once you've made the appropriate changes to your default settings, click 
Save.

Please note that when you make changes to the reminder settings for events on 
your
calendar, the changes will only apply to you. Invited guests or those who have 
access
to your events will receive reminders according to their own Google Calendar 
reminder
settings."

I will look forward to integrate the feature.

I see what you are saying, but... you can only set calendar-wide reminders for 
events
that don't already have a reminder set. With your app, there is no way of not 
setting
a reminder.

The text reads:

Event reminders: Unless otherwise specified by the individual event.

But the events already have the popup reminder so this will not apply. If you 
could
set your app to not set a reminder at all, then this would work. I have tried 
putting
0 days into your app but it still sets a reminder.
