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?

Oh, and just as an additional kick in the teeth - i found that the current time line/bar works perfectly and as expected in the WEB based outlook... so there is absolutely no way this 'new' current time line/bar is a new feature... it's a BUG in the desktop version and a real real school boy programming bug at that.
Same, I really want to know what the thought process was here, but I just can't imagine this going through any kind of usability testing and being seen as better then what is used to be.
Hi Stranz,
That is the new 'current time' indicator (and can't be 'fixed'). If you use the week or work week view, it will extend over the earlier days in the week, but not into today.
You can leave a suggestion at uservoice - i did not find one complaining about the new design- you can post one of your own.
i found this one that wants it on today only (or bolder on today) - https://outlook.uservoice.com/forums/322590-out...
I also found one that likes the new design but wants an arrow instead of a dot and this one wants a dot on both sides of the current day.
Get parity with the Office 365 web UX!
*** MICROSOFT, PLEASE PAY ATTENTION: FIX THE TIME BAR ***
The time bar is a big pain! I want to quickly see where I am in the day with my schedule. I could care less what the past is relative to the current time. It makes no sense at all to show the "Current Time" for the past. This is not Back to the Future. Why have an active timeline for the past? At least make the Time Bar customizable; so if anybody really wants a time bar for the PAST, fine. But for everyone else interested in a Time Bar showing....Wait for it... THE CURRENT TIME, then make that an option.
Sorry for waking you from being asleep at the wheel.
