View
The View section lets you control some aspects of KAlarm's appearance:
System Tray Tooltip group box: These options control what information is shown in the tooltip which appears when the mouse cursor hovers over KAlarm's system tray icon.
Show next 24 hours' alarms: When selected, a summary of the first few alarms due in the next 24 hours is displayed.
Maximum number of alarms to show: Deselect this option to display all of the next 24 hours' alarms. Select it to set the maximum number of alarms which will be displayed.
Show alarm time: Select this option to show the time at which each alarm is scheduled.
Show time until alarm: Select this option to show the length of time remaining before each alarm's next scheduled occurrence. The length of time is shown in hours and minutes.
Prefix: Specify a symbol or text to show in front of the length of time until the alarm, to distinguish it from the time at which the alarm is scheduled.
Message windows have a title bar and take keyboard focus: This option controls whether alarm message windows are modal or not, i.e. whether they grab the keyboard focus when they appear. See the Alarm message window section for details.
System tray icon update interval: Set the frequency at which the KAlarm system tray icon is updated to reflect whether alarms are currently being monitored. This involves checking whether the alarm daemon is running.
