Calendar reminders only show as a sliver

Lotus Notes 6.5

I have a user that when creating reminders in LN that are very close to the end of the hour (8:58 for instance) they only show up as tiny slivers in the calendar view. She claims this didn't happen in R5. Is there a way to force the reminder to spill over into the next hour? Here's a SS for reference.

Not sure if there is a way to set it up the way you would like it to display, but two possible work-arounds I can suggest are:

1: Instead of using the Day view, the user switch to the Week view, as this seems to show the full entry for any reminder setup even a small one like the one you gave in your example.


2: Instead of using the 'Reminder' option as the type of entry, use the 'Meeting' or 'Appointment' entry and make the duration of the entry at least 30 mins, this way it will be visible in the calendar screen when using Day view. User could use the 'mark private' when creating so people could not see this entry, in case they thought it was a meeting and were trying to arrange something based on free time

Thanks for the response.

Well, I had suggested those things to her but she is one that is very set in her ways. She may just have to deal with it and use Summarize view if she wants to see everything.
