Enhancement Suggestion for Thunderbird Calendar: Address Handling and Map Integration

pzim
Making moves

Dear Thunderbird Development Team,

I would like to propose the following enhancements for the Thunderbird Calendar to improve user experience and functionality:

  1. Add a "Copy Address" submenu to calendar events:
    • This would allow users to quickly copy the event's location address to their clipboard.
  2. Implement an "Open in Google Maps" option:
    • This feature would enable users to easily view the event location in Google Maps with a single click.
  3. Integrate an OpenStreetMap plugin:
    • This would provide an alternative map view option for users who prefer OpenStreetMap or need to use it for various reasons.
    • The plugin could display a map of the address directly within Thunderbird, enhancing the calendar's visual information.
  4. Add a phone number

These additions would greatly improve the usability of the calendar feature, making it easier for users to manage location information and visualize event venues.

Thank you for considering these suggestions. I believe they would be valuable additions to Thunderbird's functionality.

Sincerely,
Pierre

Hi Pierre. Thank you for the suggestions.  Ideally, you will want to do "Submit an idea" for each item so they can be individually discussed and voted.  The place to do this is https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/idb-p/ideas/label-name/thunderbird

Looking forward to your postings there.

Hi Pierre. I know it is some extra effort, but can you post individual items to https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/idb-p/ideas/label-name/thunderbird so other users can vote their interest?
