calendar event description
I was unable to add event description. Is it possible now? Only title, place, time, repetition, reminder is available. Option to add/edit event description is must-have. Otherwise it looks and works fine.

Thank you for your feedback! The deployment for adding event description to a calendar event in the Outlook.com beta is now complete. If you refresh, you should be able to see the experience.

When left/right-clicking on a calendar event, Expand the Edit option to include Edit Description.

In the old calendar, I could create a new event and populate all the details such as the reminder time etc. I can't do that in the new calendar. I have to create the event first, then open it to edit the details.

It's not clear to me in the new beta view how to add a Description to an event (in order to add more details to a created or existing event).

Why did you REMOVE THE DESCRIPTION FOR CALENDAR INVITES?
Is there seriously no way to add notes at _all_ to an invite, other than using the subject?!

The notes/description field for calendar events is missing from the beta Outlook Calendar. I hope that this will be rectified before the beta goes live.

How do you enter a description of calendar event?

The "description" field is really indispensable! In this Beta version, the only way to add note on an event is to set it inside the event title field, which is absolutely not convenient.

Yes, It is important!
If i would like to add description to my created event, I can't edit the descroiption. I think it is important to can add or modify the description of the event.
