Feature Request: Display Overlapping Events in the Menu Bar

I would like to request an improvement to the current Menu Bar calendar display in Aimee.

Right now, the Menu Bar shows the event that is currently active. In my case, I often use a calendar block for Focus Work, and that block appears correctly in the Menu Bar. However, sometimes I schedule meetings inside that block. When this happens, the additional meeting does not appear in the Menu Bar because the Focus Work block is the one shown as active.

This has already caused me to miss two meetings, since I rely heavily on the Menu Bar to see my next upcoming event. For this reason, I’ve temporarily disabled Aimee’s Menu Bar integration and switched back to Notion’s Menu Bar widget, which handles this scenario much better.

Requested improvement
Please update the Menu Bar logic so that all overlapping events are displayed, or at least ensure that meetings take precedence over generic blocks like Focus Work.

Additional suggestion
Notion’s Menu Bar allows enabling or disabling options such as:

  • All-day events

  • Events without participants

  • Events without a conferencing link

Having similar configuration options in Aimee would greatly improve usability and reduce the likelihood of missing important meetings.
