VueMinder Calendar Help - Month View

Current as of Version 5.3.0

Overview

The Month View shows events for an entire month. 

• The currently displayed month(s) will be shown at the top of the Month View, with left and right arrow buttons for navigating to the previous or next whole month.
• The displayed range of dates can also be modified by scrolling or by selecting a different date from the Month Navigation Pane. 
• The Month button on the Main Toolbar contains a drop-down menu where the number of displayed weeks can be adjusted from 1 to 12. You can also compress the display of weekends and change the date format for each day to also include the month name instead of just the day number.
• The first day of the week can be modified from the Calendar Options.
• The week header along the left side of the Month View can display either the date range of the week or the week number within the year. This is also controlled by a Calendar Option.
• By default, weekend dates will be colored red. This can be disabled, or the color changed, via an Appearance Option.

Tooltips

Event and task blocks in the Month view are height-limited and will not word-wrap. This is done to maximize the number of events and tasks that can be displayed simultaneously within a single day's available area. For this reason, long titles may sometimes not be completely visible in the Month View.

However, if you move the cursor over an event, a tooltip will be displayed with the event's complete title, location, starting and ending dates or times, and even a picture thumbnail if one has been defined to display in the event's popup reminder or desktop alert. The event's reminder status and description will also be displayed, if applicable. If you find the tooltips are too large for your taste, you can suppress the event descriptions from the tooltips using a Calendar Option.

You can also click an event to select it, which will result in the event's details being displayed in the Details Pane.

You can also move the cursor over a task to see a tooltip. The content will be slightly different, and varies depending on the task's settings. It can include the task description, completion state, start time and duration, how often the task repeats, reminder status, and formatted details text.
