Bug Description
say you have alarms in the alarms window. be them timers or alarm clock.
and activated with countdown running.
if you delete them with the shred icon, they disapear from the alarm window so you can think there is no more any alarm running.
this is wrong. because they all continue to run (countdown to ...) and will ring at the specified time.
Is this a bug or a feature ?
the bug is that you can't stop the first alarm that will ring because you can't stop it from the alarm window because it is not there anymore.
and even the stop all alarmsin the systray icon does n't the ringing alarm.
so you have to close alarm-clock-applet to stop this alarm
is this yet another invalid bug ? ;-)

To post a comment you must log in.
an idea would be to grey them out when there are deleted but still running instead of removing them from the alarm window.
so you can still stop them or snooze them.
or the other way is to cancel the alarm so they do not ring if they are deleted.
