Drag, drop & resize

The calendar supports three direct-manipulation gestures, so most edits never need the dialog.

Dragging a worklog card with a ghost preview of where it will land

Move a worklog​

Drag an existing card to a new day or time:

  • A dashed ghost preview with an HH:MM label shows exactly where the card will land before you drop it
  • The destination snaps to a 30-minute grid
  • Your grab offset is preserved — if you grab the middle of the card, it lands offset from the cursor by the same amount, the way Outlook and Google Calendar behave

Create by dragging from the sidebar​

Drag an issue from the Work Items sidebar onto any slot. The Log Work dialog opens with the issue pre-selected and the date and time pre-filled to where you dropped it. It uses the same ghost preview as a move, so the feedback is consistent.

Resize the duration​

Each card has a thin resize handle along its bottom edge (revealed on hover). Drag it to change the duration:

  • The new duration snaps to the nearest 15 minutes
  • It commits on release — no confirmation step
  • A click immediately after a resize won't accidentally open the edit dialog

When a write fails​

If the underlying Jira worklog write is rejected — for example a locked (approved) week, a worklog rule violation, or a Jira permission issue — Aevon surfaces a clear error banner rather than silently dropping the change.
