I used to be able to set events created in the calendar in Thunderbird to Private. This seems to have gone for events that are created by selecting a start and finish time by dragging in the calendar view (rather than right-clicking and selecting new event). Is this a deliberate change or a bug? Have other users found the same problem?
To replicate, open the calendar, select a block of time by dragging from start time to finish time, enter a title, hit return. right-click on the event and select edit. In the Privacy menu select Private Event, the tick appears alongside the label, click Save and close. The event is not set to Private (spanner icon), and if it is reopened, the menu option is no longer checked.
If I right-click to create a new event, and edit it in the dialogue box and set it to Private Event that way, it seems to work, but I'm used to selecting the time visually in the calendar.
