Calendar Views
You can view your calendar is various ways to get the level and detail
of information you need. The available views are the day, work week,
week, and month views. You can switch between the views by using their
icons in the calendar menu bar.
Day View
The day view shows a single day's events in the window, in chronological
order through the day. This is sometimes referred to as a "Day Planner"
view.
The times shown are also links which can be used to create a new entry at
that time.
If two or more events have overlapping times, they will be shown side by
side. The longer events are shown first (to the left), with shorter duration
events last (to the right).
Week and Work Week Views
The week and work week views display a "week" (5 days for the work week view,
or 7 days for the week view) of entries. The days in the week are shown
side-by-side, with events shown in the same format as the day view.
At the top is a header line showing the date of each
day, with the current day highlighted. Clicking on a date in this header
line will take you to the day view for that date. Next to the date is
a small icon which can be used to create a new entry for that date.
Month View
The month view displays a traditional monthly calendar view for a month,
with the days of the month arranged in weekly rows.
The current day will be highlighted.
Each event is shown in the box for the day it occurs within. Recurring
events will be shown for each day they occur on.
Each day box contains two icons at the top. The first icon is the
day number, which also acts as a link to the day view for that day.
The other icon allows you to create a new event for that day.
For each existing entry for a day, you will also see a summary of the entry
given, which acts as a link to that event. Clicking on an event will
display the event and allow you to edit the event. Each event will also
have a small
trash can icon next to it which can be used to quickly delete
an entry. Recurring events will be followed by a small icon of two arrows
chasing each other. Finally, events with an alarm with show a small bell
icon next to the description.
