Thanks Alexandre! :-)

Now, please, may explain how it can be useful?
I think is very easy to use the effect 2 or 4 times to generate a range of years and organize that manually.
The align dialog is enough. Don't is?

Generate more then one year in a page is really less common and more then 4 years in a page will be not readable. By that i'm not sure about to confirm this bug.

Dear Aurelio!
In advance sorry for my English.
Alexander asked this question at my request. In fact, the question I asked.
The site linuxgraphics.ru was a dispute on this topic. Your "Calendar extension" a wonderful tool for the job. But wants to expand its capabilities.
Often there is a need to produce a calendar in which a lot of pages. Each page - 1,2,3,4 or 6 months.
Some paranoid like a table for several years in advance, for example - or a long-term financial credits. Another example - the long-term research. It may be necessary to provide for setting conservation work "Calendar extension" directly to a file for each page of the calendar?
Many customers like the vertical layout of days a week. From my point of view - the more options the greater the extension of its popularity. I want you to have your extension has the same popularity as Oberon Wizard Calendar for Corel

Ok ok... :-)

Well i think multiple years will (really) be more useful in a multi-page set. Don't you agree?

So, will be better to implement that after the multi-page support, while we have more interesting features to implement, like vertical line of days, and holiday identification.

I'm not against this feature, i will be glad to implement that some day! I only think we may focus in other more "calendar inherent" ideas... :-)

What you think?

OK, let's wait until multi-page is ready.
Or find a different way to display years (only show months or weeks, one column or row per year?).
