Allow to display an event in one line (with time possibly appended)

I would also like to have an alternative layout, which has the same Day header, but shows one event in this day per line e.g. like this:
12:00 Buy some food
I usually have several events per day, so such compact format would save me a lot of space.

PS: My wish resulted from using Jorte Calendar for a long time. But now I decided to switch to the Open Source and lighter implementation and to improve it myself ;-)

Sounds like a reasonable request. Feel free to provide a full request. :)

This request is repeated e.g. "...And finally again to save vertical space, the option to move the time in the same line as the event title, thus making the events single lined"

I implemented this long-awaited feature by adding new "Appearance -> Event entry layout" option, which currently allows selection between:

• "Default multiline layout" (i.e. leave everything as it was before this change) and
• "Single line layout" - this new one.

The new layout works with recent contribution of the "Show day headers" setting (see #249 ), which allows to optimize vertical space even further: when day headers are turned off, a date is added to each event's line automatically in the first column. Currently only one format is available for this date, which I personally love :-) - "Days from Today" column, i.e. "-2, Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow, 2, 3, ...", which is very clear and far quicker to comprehend than longer date formats...

Please see the screenshots below.

1. Initial state: Default multiline layout, day headers are present. "End time" is turned off. "Multiline title" is on.
   

2. Switched to the "Single line layout".
   

3. Single line layout with day headers turned off. Now the "Days from Today" column is shown.
   

4. Single line layout with day headers turned off and "End time" is turned on - end time is shown under start time.

In order to make "Days from today" column look better, I right-aligned numbers in that column:

To be released in v.1.10.0

The two alternative layouts are now called "Time below title" and "All in one row"
