MLO tasks in Google Calendar are marked all day busy

[Mark Levison]

I have my MLO tasks syncing to google calendar. Strangely when they arrive in the calendar the time is marked as busy.

See:

 This is bad since my calendar app (Fantastical) now assumes that people can't schedule meetings with me.

How do I fix? aside from unsubscribing to my own tasks?

Cheers

Mark,

You can create a separate, dedicated, MLO Google calendar for MLO tasks to sync to. That allows others to schedule meetings based on your primary Google calendar. Both are visible in your app.

Leigh - thanks for the reply. I already have a separate calendar set up. The problem is that if the calendar is visible in Fantastical then it is taken into account for my free/busy status ;-).

Ahh Gotcha, I can see the issue now. I was thinking only your primary calendar was used to to determine availability. Is there a way or setting for new events in your dedicated MLO calendar for the default new event to be listed as “free”?

In the end with an insane amount of funkiness I found a trick. Fantastical has calendar sets. So I told the Openings function to consider a smaller set of calendars and the display function uses all the calendars. I just cringe at the maintainability.
