When creating a new event or task you can set an alarm, but once you get the alarm you won't be remind it again unless you say "open" and then edit the event/task. This is ok, but I was wondering if it could be mabe even easier by adding just a couple of things to the Orage notification window.

A "Remind me again in..." label and then the boxes for "days", "hours", "minutes".  

Again since I'm not an English speaker, is this clear?

yes, I have been thinking this. the problem is the notify type reminder.
But good idea, will take another look.

Good to hear!! I'm afraid I don't know enough to help you with it, but I'm pleased you keep pushing it!

Thank you.

Any progress on this one Juha?
Comment 4 juha editbugs 2009-11-27 15:33:26 CET
no progress yet. 
This is not simple to do as Orage now only supports 1 alarm per event.
Comment 5 juha editbugs 2009-12-18 14:50:36 CET
This is now available in Orage 4.7.5.3.
It was more difficult to do than what I expected, so needs more testing,
but it seems to work on normal cases at least.

Note that it is an extra alarm; it does not update the original appointment.
