In calendar, you can currently choose between options ALL, Today, 7, 14, 31 days ahead, This Cal Month, Future Events, Current Day, Current View. If an event is overdue, it disappears off the days ahead lists, which is bad. I also want to display only those events which have a reminder set. I need to use calendar, as I want to know what days things are due, Jobs etc, which you might put in Tasks, but which better suit being in Calendar for me.

What prevents you from creating tasks?

As far as I know tasks don't show up in the calendar. Unless there is some way that they do?

This shows tasks can be displayed in Calendar. (Thunderbird 45.6.0) http://francisoud.blogspot.com.au/2010/03/thunderbird-lightning-tip-display-tasks.html Took me a while to work out which language and find if it still existed in current versions. (it does) This helps, but tasks are still not showing up in the list part of calendar, and probably never will. Gives something more to try though.
