Advanced Calendar - displaying icon if comment

Hello,

Recently there have been a few improvements to the advanced calendar application.  However, previously, when someone left a comment in the standard comment field in Smartsheets, the advanced calendar app would display a square box on the front of the tile indicating a comment is present.

This seems to have disappeared after the recent update and i cannot workout how to fix in the configuration options.

Anyone know a fix to this issue or how to enable this in the options?

Thanks

Andrew

    Hi Andrew,

    I've escalated this to our Development team to identify wether this is being caused by a bug or by design. I'll update you once I have more information.

    Hi Andrew, 

    I heard back from our Development team and it appears that in order to view the attachment and comment symbols within the Calendar app, a column of type "Symbols" is required within your sheet (the column can be blank).

    To view the attachment and comment symbols you'll want to:

    1. Open the Calendar app settings

    2. Under step 3 "Map Columns" and then under the "Symbol" dropdown, select the symbol column.

    3. Check the "display" checkbox to the right of the symbol dropdown.

  • Hello Alejandra,

    Appreciate the response.

    Thanks
