Schedule a call or meeting : crossed off

When the activity Schedule a call or meeting is checked off as completed, it puts a strike through the entire event. It didn’t used to do this. Is this new, or a glitch? Have to admit, not a fan but I can get used to it.

Would rather see that the Scheduled call or meeting has a check box just like a task, so it’s easy to uncheck it if required without opening up the entire activity

It’s new and by design, it does the same in the calendar as well (thus no checkbox).

Scheduled meetings have checkboxes (like tasks) in the Activity->Next actions assigned to, but not in the contact or project blog
Tasks have a checkboxes and a strike-through so why not Scheduled meetings?

I can understand the strikethrough in the calendar, since it only cross out the title. We use the description as the ‘call report’ ie the meeting summary since there isn’t really a better way to tie the meeting minutes or call report to that specific meeting, therefore many of these are quite long and the strike-through makes it challenging to read. But as I said we’ll get used to it! Maybe we use the Scheduled meeting in a different way than it was designed to be, but I haven’t found a better way to capture the meeting minutes.

PS: just saw the new little ‘plusses’ on the task list to open them up once they are complete: brilliant! Are little ‘minusses’ coming to close them???
