I'm not sure if this is a strange request or not, but I'd like to be able to change the 'X more...' message that appears if there are more appointments than can be shown on the month view day cells. I would need to be able to change it as each cell is rendered. If this is not possible, I can submit it as a feature request. Thanks!
Hi Michael,
You can't currently change the text. And it would definitely make a good feature request, and to an extent its a bug, as it should at least be localizable on our side, but it appears we overlooked that string.
Could you provide an example of what you would change it to? Do you want to change it on a per case basis? Or are you just looking to change the wording?

We are using the month view so the day cells have the format "# - [group name]". When you click the day, a UITableView on the right shows the list of items. We want the "# more..." to adjust day-by-day in order to say the total number that are not shown. If there are two groups not shows, with 6 items among them, it would show "6 more...", as opposed to "2 more...", which is the number of groups (appointments) remaining that it didn't have space to show. What I may end up doing is that beyond the number that can fit, I can take the leftover groups, and create separate appointments for the total number, in order to get it to show the number I want. I'm just not sure if I can reliably know how many it has room to show though. So if I didn't do it this way, if I could change that "X more..." text when the cell is rendered (by cell, not global), I could do it, but I may also need to know which appointments it did not have room to show as well. Hopefully that makes sense! :)
Yup, i think i understand your issue.
It shouldn't be a problem to add a delegate method to ask for the text being displayed in the "X more" label.
If you could add it to the ideas page, that'd be great as it would make it more trackable, and we can let you know once its been added.
Thanks for the feedback!
Sure thing! I posted the idea just now. Thanks!
