M. Brandon LeeYes, the OPTION to change default open or close state is a good idea. We like having choice.

Walt M (CollegeNET) AdminThanks for the feedback Brandon. I've updated the title of this issue to reflect the "option".
Follow up question for any who want to answer - In your opinion, is this better as a by form configuration, or by instance setting? No promises, just an informal poll. :-) -

Bonnie HendricksonI wish it looked like the rest of the form instead of being a box that looks more like a header than something to be opened. I think the section in the Scheduling tool looks good. And can we call it 25Live Basic instead of Scheduling? This name is too generic and confusing when talking to others about it. This needs to be up for a vote. :o)

Kenny MI ran into this today, and was glad to see a popular Feature Upvote for it already!
It should manifest itself as an toggle/option in the Event Form Config, under the Event Date/Time section, called:
"Auto Open Additional Time Dropdown"
It can look similar to the "Auto Open Help Message" box that is already there -

Dawn PustelnikCompletely agree, users miss it all the time because it does not look the rest of the form.
On a similar note it would be nice to have the "Display Additional Time" box that appears on a Calendar view to be default checked on, instead of defaulted to unchecked. Users forget to click that box all the time and then make assumptions about the space based on the actual time of the event because they don't see the additional time. -

Amanda Robbins-ButcherSt. Olaf would love this too! It would be great if you didn't have to click to open, but stayed open and seemed more a part of the reservation than an "optional" element.

Pamela MasonI would like it to be it's own Section like all of the other sections in the Event Form with customizable Header, help text and default open and close of Help Text. It is not really part of the Section for Event Date and Time since that is really more the header and help text for the fields above it. This is the area that most people skip and get confused by. The Header above it we have labeled First Occurrence Date and Time of Event. The Date, times and occurrences of the event is the most complicated section and separating these out as their own sections in the Event Form would help a lot for helping guide people to use them correctly.

Tracy LopezIt would be helpful to our users to default the Additional Time so that it is expanded out. Often, it is overlooked by our users who do indeed need to add set-up/takedown time to the event. When we have back-to-back events, the set-up/takedown times especially make a difference in planning/organizing for the event.
