Hi there,

is there any option to do this? The specific problem is to add an recurring event for the ms patchday plus 2 days for error checking. If i just add an recurring event for every 2nd thursday, then in some month, beginning with wednesday or thursday the event happens 1 week to early (before the patchday).

If there's no option i would like to make an feature request to add this option:

Add a line with the possibility to add +/- x days to the choosen recurring date.

Regards

schnettl

Never done it before, but I just looked and the add event has a custom option. Which opens a panel allowing setting of the repeat for particular numbered weeks like 2nd 3rd etc as well as first and last combines with a day of the weeks. So I would suggest just using the custom option in the list

Hi Matt,

thanks for your reply. But sadly I already tried the custom options and they can't provide the combination that i need. I think at the moment there's no way to create an custom event with the regular options and then add a specific number of days.

I will give it a try at the feature request (never done a feature request before).

Thanks anyway schnettl
