"Private" Events and showing "Busy"

O

Orion Smith

Hi,
I realize that the way to make a calendar event "private" is to assign it a
category that is not set to sync - in my case "personal."
However I would like to ensure that this block of time is displayed as
"Busy" on my public calendar. It seems to me that by not syncing the event,
there is nothing showing that I'm unavailable then.
Do I have to create 2 events? One with private info that isn't sync'd and
one that is public and just says "busy"?
Thanks

Yes, that is the work-round.
