All day events start from preceding day, 00:00

[Thomas Meyssonnier]

Whenever I create an all-day event (in Google, haven't tried local calendar), it records it from the preceding day (I.e. Wednesday for Thursday) at 00:00; also, it won't record an event on a single day (I.e. from Thursday to Thursday).
As far as I know 00:00 is the start of a given day, not its end... Am I mistaken?
I think all-day events are badly handled because:
- they don't require a time in hours
- they can be punctual in terms of days
This might sound like a feature request but in effect I have to resort to using normal events, from 00:00 to 23:59, as a workaround.
Thanks,
TM

what version of calendar app and what version of ubuntu are you using?

[Thomas Meyssonnier (thomas-meyssonnier)]

Ubuntu: OTA-10.1
Calendar: 0.5.800

I checked just now and the bug still happens, creating an all day event on
a certain day will register it on the day before.
I should mention my system is in French so weeks start on Monday. It's a
possible cause for a one day offset if weeks originally started on a
Sunday.
I've also noticed incoherent behaviours due to not taking in account
February 29, 2016. That could be another reason.

Thanks for your work,
Thomas Meyssonnier

Thanks Thomas. We reproduced and are working on a fix.
