Show new start and end times when dragging things

When dragging a 15min task or event, there is no way to read the new start and end times. I have to infer them by checking the distance to the grid lines, but that proves difficult in Dark Mode and low-light environments (at night, for example).

My suggestion would be to (when dragging or hovering over a 15min event), show two horizontal lines that cross the event's top and bottom edges, and optionally show the start and end times in the left sidebar (kinda like the red "right now").

    I've run into a similar issue when resizing an event/task shorter than a certain threshold (depending on the time display resolution). Currently, when vertical space isn't enough to display both the title and the time range, the event/task only shows the title. The problem is that when I'm resizing an event, the most relevant information I need is the start time - end time, but I have to guess this because it's not displayed.

    I’d suggest two solutions for when the space is limited in evens/tasks:

    Option 1 (Ideal): show the start-end time next to the title.

    Option 2: show only the start time - end time instead of the event/task title (I've seen this working well in other calendar apps).
