Is it possible to show an appointment's end time on the home screen?

not on the standard MS plugins, but I am sure I saw it on a screen shot of the Orange plugin so I guess they might have re-engineered it.

i have done a bit of fiddling with the calendar plugin just recently and found that if u specify the fields from the calendar in the homescreen xml you can show various details.

i.e if you want the location add etc

straight out of the SDk :-

re MS calendar plugin

Calendar Plug-In

Description: Displays the next appointment on the user's schedule.

Text wraps if necessary: Yes.

Receives selection: Yes. Action launches calendar application.

Hide on phone lock: No.

Class ID: {865A354A-4A96-4687-B001-C155DC0DBE76}

The following variables are supported: , , and . They display the subject of the appointment, the location of the appointment, and the time of the appointment, respectively.

If the appointment takes place on the current day, only the start time of the appointment is shown by the variable. If the appointment takes place on a day in the future, both the date and time of the appointment are shown. The date and time are formatted using the current date and time formatting specified within the regional settings.

A conflicting appointment icon can be positioned by using the tag. If the appointment being displayed is in conflict with another, a conflict icon is shown at the location specified by a tag using the x and y attributes. Aside from the x and y attributes, all other attributes are ignored in the tag for the conflict icon.

The precedence order for selecting an appointment to display when there is a conflict is as follows: Busy; Tentative; Free.

The priority of the appointment is not considered. If more than one appointment has the same precedence, the order of the appointments in the database determines the one displayed. Appointments made on the device will not have a priority to synchronize with the desktop.

To control the background of the plug-in, use the tag.

The following XML shows an implementation example for this plug-in.

there is no support for end time, so I guess Orange have done there own version and thats why there new screen shots show it.
