Hovering Add ("+") and More ("...") buttons in calendar view are blocking view of the last 1.5 hours of the day.

... and more columns/days you've set up to display more severe the blocking gets of course. Already 3 day columns in the calendar view and an activity from 23-0 o'clock makes it kinda impossible to read let alone to select the item/activity (behind the button(s)).

Besides the fact that I'm personally no friend of those hovering-in-the-middle-of-the-display-buttons it objectively just doesn't work in a non-scrolling view (... and also at the very end of a scrolling view it obstructs the view).

Suggested solutions

Idea # 1

Long press somewhere and get a menu to select the 3 actions (add, filter and share) which are so far spread on the 2 buttons. In addtion it would also logical integrate well since those 3 the functions act on the just pressed area:

• Filter the just pressed view
• "Share" the whole view (as a screenshot -- which in itself I find un-intuitive -- but different topic)
• Add a new activity, at the spot where I just pressed (also see #265.)

Idea # 2

Move one or both buttons into the bottom bar so they don't block the calendar view.

Thank you for more feedback! Hovering buttons are indeed a strain point. Unfortunately it seems there is no good solution.

Idea#1 requires for calendar view and records list to have different ways of adding records, which seems unintuitive. Idea#2 is good alternative, which I'm looking into. But it would require adding a second row above date and < > buttons, which would mean less space for the content (records). Or adding another button beside date button, which would leave less space for the date.

If we put the “+” button in the “...” menu, it would greatly reduce the clutter of the interface. Could that be a first step?

Moved all buttons to one button at the bottom. Will look something like on the screens. Buttons on the statistics tab (filter and share) and detailed statistics (filter and comparison) also moved to one button. Will be in the next release.
