Abstract
A method of controlling an electronic device includes retrieving from at least one database of the electronic device, calendared events that meet a set of constraints, displaying the calendared events in a time-ordered list including a start date/time of each of the calendared events, and providing a user-selectable option to either show end times or to hide the end times in the time-ordered list. The time-ordered list includes an end date/time of each of the calendared events when the user-selectable option is set to show end times.
Claims16
A method of controlling an electronic device, the method comprising:
- retrieving from at least one database of said electronic device, calendared events that meet a set of constraints;
- displaying said calendared events in a time-ordered list including a start dateltime of each of said calendared events;
- and
- providing a user-selectable option to either show end times or to hide said end times in said time-ordered list,
- wherein said time-ordered list includes an end date/time of each of said calendared events when said user-selectable option is set to show end times.
An electronic device comprising:
- a memory for storage of a plurality of calendared events in at least one database;
- a display device for displaying said calendared events in a list;
- a user input device for user selection and manipulation of said calendared events;
- and
- a processor connected to the memory, the display device and the user input device, for retrieving from at least one database of said electronic device, calendared events that meet a set of constraints, displaying on said display, said calendared events in a time-ordered list including a start date/time of each of said calendared events, and providing a user-selectable option to either show end times or to hide said end times in said time-ordered list, wherein said time-ordered list includes an end date/time of each of said calendared events when said user-selectable option is set to show end times.
A computer program product for displaying a plurality of calendared events in a list on a display of an electronic device, said computer program product comprising a computer-readable medium having computer-readable code embodied therein for:
- retrieving from at least one database of said electronic device, calendared events that meet a set of constraints;
- displaying said calendared events in a time-ordered list including a start date/time of each of said calendared events;
- and
- providing a user-selectable option to either show end times or to hide said end times in said time-ordered list,
- wherein said time-ordered list includes an end date/time of each of said calendared events when said user-selectable option is set to show end times.
