this is my view in the "Day" tab. the blue time bar has disappeared. the one that advances with the current time. 

In the week view, the blue line is there but it extends across previous days but not to the current one or future dates. 

anyone know how to fix this?

    To all. While doing some research on this topic I came across  outlooks-calendar-gets-a-refresh from March 2013. They share that the Time Indicator Bar is classified as a new feature!

    Thanks Mark - so that makes it even worse ... that the Program Manager of their Outlook team, Scott Walker, actually promotes this as 'a Time Indicator Barstretching to the current day and time, and shaded past days to increase the focus on today.
    What a crook of #@*& - whoever designed this as a feature should be be fired.
    If this is a feature, then what makes it worse is the other platforms (web, mobile) and Schedule view ALL show the time indicator bar as it should be and as it WAS ... on the actual ACTIVE DAY... then they have only part implemented the feature. Unbelievable !!!

    If i wasn't forced to use this due to company policy, i would ditch Outlook for a product that works as a decent time manager ... i feel that strongly about this BUG they call a feature.

    Agree. That needs to be fixed. So misleading. Looks like a bug to me.
