Calendar:Calendars Tree
From MozillaWiki
This is a proposal for a new (and hopefully improved) way of displaying calendars that a user has subscribed to. To add minor comments/feedback, please use the discussion page. More extensive discussion should be taken the newsgroup

Main Features
- The calendar-tree has 3 columns:
- The first column displays a checkbox in the color of the calendar. This lets us merge the calendar-color and the checkbox column. Originally suggested by Beltzner
- Issue: I need someone who can draw a better checkbox with canvas. Generally, I have the form
function drawCheckbox(aColor, aChecked) {}that returns toDataURL().
- Issue: I need someone who can draw a better checkbox with canvas. Generally, I have the form
- The second is the calendar's name. This is the flexed column
- The last column is intended to show an icon related to the status of the calendar:
- A lock for read-only calendars
- The 0.2 reload icon for calendars that are loading
- Something red/scary for calendars that have an error
- The first column displays a checkbox in the color of the calendar. This lets us merge the calendar-color and the checkbox column. Originally suggested by Beltzner
- Users have an ability to add arbitrary groupings for calendars
- Issue: It's possible to allow users to place calendars in multiple categories, but my concern is that this model will become rather complex.
- Issue: Need good, sane default groupings
- Issue: Should we allow calendars to not be in a group?
- Users have an ability to change the container of the calendar, or its ordering within a container, by drag-and-drop
- Issue: Is inline editing of calendar names overkill? calFolders has this.
