On day view, do not let the time/name label be off-screen

So are you taking about making EventBubble partially transparent, so hour band in behind is visible ?

or we can also make it transparent in case of long press on EventBubble and in normal case its fully visible.

Here is a simple proposal: just repeat event information (time and title) every 4 hours : it should allow user to always see informations even on small screens. For bigger screens, it shouldn't disturb.

ok, now I understand the issue.

repeatedly showing title and time is one option,

Or we can try scrolling event information in case of bubble height larger and event information is not visible.

Thanks a lot Michel for the proposal!

I think if it's possible, though, I'd advocate for Kunal's suggestion of scrolling the event information, as it would prevent cluttering the UI.

My first proposal is supposed to have no slowdown while scrolling : that's the most important point for users !

If graphics effects don't slow scrolling, so I propose a vertical paralax effect : it'll help user understand the scrolling.
I prepare a mockup in few hours.

and the "parallax" effect !

this is my current implementation,

Will improve code and handle some condition and propose MR.

This looks great, thanks Kunal!

What do you think of Michel's suggestion? Would it be something easy to
implement on a subsequent iteration of the branch, or is it something that
can be done already?

Cheers,
David.

I am not sure, I need to experiment. I think I will do it in separate iteration.

it proven easier than I thought, here it how it looks after adding parallax effect
