I'm having some very strange visual effects on iCal and all-day events that start on a Sunday. If i create a single-day (all-day) event that starts on a Sunday, the bar stretches through the entire week and wraps back to the original day, like so:



but if I then drag it one day over to a Monday, for example, it's fine. Like so:



Any ideas? very weird. It only happens on all-day events starting on Sunday. It doesn't seem to matter how long they last either.

doesn't do this on mine, have you tried swapping the starting day in the prefs, then quit iCal - relaunch and swap the starting week day back to Sunday and see if the problem still exists?

Hm. I tried that but it didn't help. You're right: all-day events work fine when I change the week's starting day to Monday, for example. But when I switch back to Sunday, it goes back to the messed up stuff. Does it on multiple calendars, too, and even with different users. So I think it's something to do with my iCal application. Weirdly, it also affects my roommate's iBook, so I wonder if this is some kind of a virus thing? (I seriously doubt it, but I'm looking at all possibilities.)
