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?

    I hate the new design and would rather have the bar extend all the way across at least to the right side of the current day. In my opinion, the half a dot on the left side of the day is not very useful and hard to see.

    Please fix this bug urgently.

    It has made me miss several meetings now...

    Also darker the past dates, on my thinkpad laptop it's not easy to see the current used gray tone as past.

    Does anyone know how many "I have the same question" or how many replies in a post it takes before Microsoft will take an issue seriously?

    After reading many of the comments, it looks like the Calendar time bar work in some instances (desktop Schedule View, mobile apps, web version, etc.), but not in the Desktop version in Day, Work Week, or Week views.

    As you can see in my screen shots, it doesn't work in the Desktop version of Work Week, but does in Desktop version of Schedule View and Web version of Work Week. The fact that it can both work and not work in the Desktop version between the Work Week and Schedule View seems to indicate a bug.

    Desktop version of Work Week:

    Desktop version of Schedule View:

    Web version of Work Week:

    ☝ This.

    Why does it work flawlessly in the Web-interface but has trouble in programs?

    Awful design - not sure how is that helpful. I didnt realize the change as I have both mac and pc. Mac has a nice unambiguous indicator. In PC, I keep messing up on meetings.

    Another user slightly annoyed that the timeline indicator is on the wrong day!

    As most of the other users have commented on, it doesn’t show up on Mondays tasks, and is a day behind for the rest of the week.

    Dear MS don’t insult our intelligence, this is NOT a feature, it’s a bug that you have not bothered to fix, that is showing data that is 24hrs out of date, its not a retrospective bar, its meant to show current status?

    Its now the end of October and there is still no fix or answer to this?

    just shows how much you think of your customers!

    Actions speak louder than words, Fix It.
