I would also find a mini calendar popup for scheduling the due date very useful. Every time I click that little calendar I somehow expect a little calendar to pop up even though I know it doesn't. Please consider this feature and as always thanks for a fantastic task list!

Agreed. I've stopped clicking it, but only after clicking it about 150 times expecting to see a date-picker.

I would expect the same, when you click on a calendar button you should see a calendar

this is such an obvious (and oft-requested) thing. I thought maybe a greasemonkey wizard out there might try to tackle this one?

I agree, I would also like to have this feature.

If this is included in RTM it must be possible to select what day of the week is the first - Monday for me.

Dudes - No pop-up calendar is circa "TheGlobe.com"

Just adding my vote for a pop-up date picker. Please, please! If I click on that calendar icon one more time...

I agree, I expected the calendar icon to open up a calendar when I click on it.

Posted at 5:00pm on May 6, 2008

in the igoogle ap, the only way to set a due date is to type it. This stinks. PLEASE add a calendar selection feature.

I add my vote; pop-up calendar please so we can select a date via mouse click(s) rather than typing. Admittedly, it will not have the smart AI features of the typed text, but most times it's sufficient, not to say expected.

I love the smart typing feature, but a calendar is essential for the times you don't know the specific dates.

You've got my vote.

+1

jeff.stephens

completely agree.

Posted at 7:04pm on May 21, 2008

I also agree with folks that a calendar is essential.

Posted at 11:02pm on May 21, 2008

"Here, here" and hopefully 'soon, soon'

another hearty vote "yes" for calendar

Posted at 9:41am on May 27, 2008

Me too. A must have feature.

The good news: There is nothing wrong with my computer
The Bad news: Why is there no clickable calendar?????????

I mean, can ALL these people be wrong?
This IS the expected functiomality

I too would LOVE to see a pop-up calendar.
Great Job so far

Posted at 4:32am on July 1, 2008

Yes, please. At least a reference calendar for the current and next month, if not clickable.

Thanks for an excellent product.

Posted at 7:17pm on July 7, 2008

Please. This is a very frustrating limitation. I would like to see a popup calendar on both the RTM site and iGoogle. Thank you!

Posted at 6:18pm on July 12, 2008

yep this is a must have.

Or you could add the ability to do things like

Sunday in 1 month

+1 for popup calendar

Posted at 12:32am on July 29, 2008

I don't want a pop up calendar, but I do want some kind of calendar so I know what due date to assign for tasks further in advance than 1 week. Maybe when the due date field is selected, there could be a small calendar below the "1 task selected" box.

I'm pretty sure HiTask has this feature and I think it's annoying. I like being able to type in my due dates as today, Friday, etc, and would find it really annoying to have to always click the number on a pop up calendar, but sometimes I definitely need something for into-the-future reference.

So, +1 (sort of).

Another vote for the popup calendar. Seriously, it's the one flaw in the system that prevents me from adding quick events.

Posted at 11:09pm on August 14, 2008

yes please! The little calendar icon sitting there is too tempting, why doesn't it do anything! So frustrating!

Yes, I would very much like to see this feature as well.

Check out the RTM Google Desktop Gadget located at www.catsoft.ch/gg/catsoftrtm.gg or add it through the desktop sidebar with Add Gadget, search for RTM. This includes a calendar for picking the due date. You can find a small screencast at http://screencast.com/t/22ldr2l5D1F.

There are multiple DHTML calendars available out there. Not sure why this shouldn't be something easy to pop in the app. Setting due dates by having to look at another application for a calendar is ridiculous. Especially given you have an icon on the due date box which is standard for "click here for a pop-up calendar".

Posted at 2:37pm on October 24, 2008

+1 -- This is an essential for any task management software.

Posted at 3:21pm on October 29, 2008

beasteh

yes please include any type of calendar preferably interacitve so if you click a date you can see whats on that date like things to do and tasks due.
bolded dates mean things are on it :D and even times would be cool XD
