Bug Description

Multi-day-events aren't visualized properly in week- or day-view. An event which crosses midnight doesn't consume the correct calendar area.
Steps to reproduce:
Create an event with start-date 2015-06-01 18:30 and an end date 2015-06-02 17:30. It will be shown as two events from 18:30 until 18:45 at both days. I would expect a visualization which spans from 18:30 to 24:00 and from 00:00 to 17:30. (see attachement).
An event with start-date 2015-06-01 16:30 and an end date 2015-06-02 18:30 is displayed as to events from 16:30 to 18:30.
In both cases a user can't see that these event will last over night.

Thank you for providing such a fast solution. That's exactly what I had in mind.
I changed the status back to "new" because under some circumstances the old behaviour is still there.
Multi-day events which crossing a month boundary aren't visualized properly:
1) Create an event (start-date 2015-07-31; end-date 2015-08-01)
2) It will be visualized only at the time 00:00 to 00:15 at both dates

Hey, Thanks so much for the detailed description.
I will submit the new patch later on.

BTW: another issue for multi-day event date time displayed in event details view
By far, the date period time displayed for event only includes event start date time, which doesn't make sense for multi-day event.
should include event end date time in this case.
New patch will fix it as well.

In the dayly view the date period is displayed as well (in addidtion to the event's name).
