why control click when u can just double click?

and select the calender on the left before double clicking to assign the event to that calender.

then just click on the time field in the info pane (which i think it essential in month view)! i mean really, if you are willing to touch the keyboard to control click or tab, how hard is it to click the time and press "3" or whatever.

if you are right clicking on a two-button mouse, double click is still easier than popup menus!

I submitted the hint.

On a smaller monitor, say an ibook, the drawer is a horrible GUI. It extends itself in random directions and takes up too much screen room.

So if I quickly want to enter a new item into ical I could
- First click on a calendar
- double click on the date and enter the info
- go to the drawer and now click on its time.

This is not efficient. This kind of is :
- double click on a date and enter the info
- hit tab and set the time
- set the calendar
No need to jump around in different parts of the GUI.
