           Summary: Copy & paste of events in a different TZ than the
                    view's TZ assigns wrong start time
           Product: korganizer
           Version: 4.2.0
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: korganizer-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: reinhold at kainhofer.com


Version:            (using KDE 4.2.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

My view's TZ is Europe/Vienna and I have an event in UTC at 12:00-18:00
(displayed at 13:00-19:00 CET). I copy this event (Ctrl+C), mark a time span of
e.g. 9:00-12:00 with the mouse and paste the event (Ctrl+V).

The pasted event will be displayed only from 10:00-12:00 rather than from
9:00-12:00. Looking at the editor dialog, one can see that the start time
(9:00) is assigned as UTC (9:00 UTC == 10:00 CET), while the end time (12:00)
is assigned as local time (CET).  

Start and end times should at least use the same time zone spec consistently.
If they use the same TZ as the original copied event, then the time needs to be
adjusted so that the event happens exactly at the selected time span local
time.
