Tasks group (not slot) takes on the length of the longest task, not it's sum

Features & Improvements Request

When dropping tasks one onto another in the calendar they make a group which length corresponds to the longest of the tasks in the group and not to the sum of the times durations of these tasks. So if I put three one-hour tasks onto each other they will have a length of one hour. If I put one hour task and then three five-minute ones on top of it it still has the length of one hour. Observe the gif. The expectation as a user for me would be that the overall length of the task group would be the sum of its parts

    Hi Simon! I'm closing this request because this is how this feature is suppose to work.

    This is just a UI adjustment to not make your calendar look busy when you plan more tasks at the same time, and you can turn it off in your Calendar Settings "Group overlapping tasks".

    I'd suggest using Time Slot to group similar tasks, where you can easily drag the bottom of the time slot to increase the duration if you need more time for your tasks. Let me know what you think!
