Tasks in icalendar

tjstankus says:
I like to view my RTM tasks in iCal. When I have a task with a due date and a time estimate, it shows up as 1 hour in duration regardless of the time estimate. Is there a way to make, e.g., a 30-minute task show up as 30 minutes long in iCal?

Thanks.

tjstankus, sorry this isn't possible. With the iCalendar Events feed, we set the duration of each event to be 1hr so that all tasks display on the calendar. The reason for this is that not all tasks may have time estimates, and that the time estimate for a task isn't necessarily the same as an event duration (e.g. if a report is due at 9am and has a time estimate of 6hrs, this doesn't mean that it should show as an event for the 6hrs immediately before or after the due date -- the report may be worked on at any time). Hope this helps!
