Month view: auto-scroll to current week

[kharl26]

In month view, the calendar always shows the full month starting from row 1. During the second half of the month, the current day and upcoming events are below the fold, requiring manual scrolling every time. It would be helpful if month view auto-scrolled so the current week is near the top of the view, keeping the most relevant dates visible without scrolling.

Hi @kharl26

Can you show us an example of what you mean? (screen capture)

Hi, Sorry for the delay. I'm not sure how to show it. I guess a better description would be that I am requesting an alternative or additional calendar display that shows say 5 weeks with the 1st or 2nd week being the current one. Scrolling would scroll the weeks, perhaps with a change in background color to highlight when a new month starts. The Today button on this display would return to the current week in the 1st or 2nd row and the upcoming weeks, 3-4 of them, below it. The reason is that I want to use a calendar to plan, which is mostly about the future. But the Month display forces me to spend roughly the entire second half of the month, every month, flipping back and forth between the current month and the upcoming month. I spend much less time looking at the previous weeks than at the upcoming weeks, so about half of every month the calendar is annoyingly limited. The proposed display is not a duplicate of any of the existing options. All of the existing display options for the calendar are digital reproductions of the calendars one might find in a paper planner. But this is not a paper planner and need not be constrained this way. There is no particular benefit to having a display that only shows one month in a page-like fashion. That is simply a limitation found in paper calendars that has been carried over into the completely unrelated domain of digital displays. Just because I have to flip pages on a paper calendar does not mean that I want that same irritating limitation in my electronic calendars. Some calendars already have this option (especially phone calendars) and it would make Nextcloud Calendar significantly more usable if it also allowed this type of display. Thank you for considering this request.
