Currently if you want the iRT Calendar to start in a particular view you go to the preferences and set it up for the that. But this is made to do it when launching from a widget.

Can it be made to do the same thing from a Application shortcut as well?

You see, I use the ADWLauncher EX, and I use a dock bar at the bottom which I place my application icons to launch them. It will only currently use applcation shortcuts and not Widget shortcuts. So I have to use a regular application shortcut to launch iRT Calendar. In doing so, it does not currently recognize that I want to start up in my preferred defaut view Therefore it starts in Day view.

If you can accomplish this you will want to rename the preference to say Default view with no mention of Widget since it then would apply both to widgets and application shortcuts
