In Google Calendar, events fewer than 25 minutes will now better reflect the true duration of the event, occupying less space in your daily view. This change will also show in the printed version of your calendar. (external link) 

Events in Google Calendar of different time lengths are now visualized to better reflect the true duration of the event. 

Previously, these shorter events were displayed the same as 30-minute events. With this update, we hope to make your schedule easier to understand and manage.

This will appear automatically in Google Calendar, if you would like to disable this new view in Google Calendar, go to settings (gear icon in the top right corner in Google Calendar) and under the View options section, check off the setting "Display shorter events the same size as 30 minute events".
