possibility to copy calendar items and paste as text into Diarium entry

PaoloLombardi

Currently system calendar integration is a dynamic data read which means that all those calendar items are not stored in the Diarium entry itself, so if the calendar is cleaned, the Diarium entry does not show anything more

It would be great to be able to select the calendar items displayed, then copy-paste them as plain text in the Diarium entry, so that I can store the ones I care about and I save time in typing what happened on the day
Many thanks!

Using the share info you can get (copy) something like:
MTB ride with Tim
12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Tue, 18 Aug 2020
Ideally would like something like a one liner (date already known):
12:00pm MTB ride with Tim

How do you do that?
I mean in Diarium if I click on the calendar items, I cannot select them, it just opens up the calendar app where I also cannot select items and share them as text

DavidBaird

In the mobile app if you press on the entry, go to share, select text and hit copy you get:
MTB ride with Tim
12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Tue, 18 Aug 2020
For my diary entry I have been deleting the date and taking out the line break i.e.
MTB ride with Tim 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Seems to me something that could be automated.

DavidBaird you are talking Windows/Android, aren't you? on Mac/iPhone i cannot find a way to select the calendar entries and copy them, i just get the system calendar app opened and it is a nightmare to open one by one each event, select the title text, copy and paste it

DavidBaird

For me it would be even better if it could go in as an appointment entry (the mobile calendar events don's show the time) I would like to see it more like:
12:00pm MTB ride with Tim
But any push button entry would be better than having to do a manual entry which I do 5-8 a day currently.

DavidBaird totally agree with you, "12:00pm MTB ride with Tim" that's all i need to type and any automatic way would save lots of time

DavidBaird

Sorry yes - Android mobile app.

So entry would be: "Start Time" - "Title"

@timo are you considering adding this feature to future updates? Would be really helpful!
