To-Do Bar Calendar functionality in Outlook 2013

I’ve pinned the new “Calendar Peek” to get the “To-Do Bar” back in Outlook 2013 but I’m still missing some functionality here.

The main options that I’m missing are:

Especially the first one is quite annoying. If I have a day with little or no appointments, I always found it quite convenient to see upcoming appointments for the next days. Now it just shows a big empty white spot.

Is there any way to change this and get that functionality back?
