iCal cuts off text of some events in month view

I've noticed that iCal cuts off the text of some events, while displaying the full text of longer events in the month view. For example, if I create an event titled "Test Event" only "Test" shows up in the day it's created, but if I enter "Longer Event" the entire text shows up, on two lines. These events are on separate days with no other events on those days, so there's nothing to get in their way. Why is this?

This may not be of help, but I was having the same problem and chnged the fonts to smaller presentation. Was able to see everything in the event, just had to get my reading glasses out.

Pop49,

I have looked everywhere I could think of in the iCal interface...Where did you find "changed fonts to a smaller presentation?"

Pop,

Too bad, I was hopeful that you had found a gem.

Seems like there should be a choice.

Pop, Can you share how you were able to change the size in printing the monthly view? Everything on my calendar is cut off, and I can't find that feature anywhere...many thanks...

Bottom right of the Print screen it offers a Text size pop-up list: Small, Medium, or Big

Folks could try open software, it's free and you can fix it your self: http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/
