The New button expands into a submenu of commands for creating new items.

The New button provides commands for creating new items.

New Calendar

  • After selecting this command, a new calendar will be created. The Calendar Properties window will be displayed. The calendar will also be added to the Calendar List.
  • The default keyboard shortcut is Ctrl+Shift+C.

New Calendar Group

  • The Calendar List allows calendars to be grouped. This command will create a new calendar group in the Calendar List.
  • Existing calendars can be dragged into the new calendar group, or the group can be right-clicked to add new calendars to it.

New Category

  • This command will create a new category, which can be used in the Category field of the Event Editor.
  • The new category will be displayed in the Category Editor, where the default name and appearance can be modified.

New Event

  • After selecting this command, the Event Editor window will be displayed, where a new event can be defined.
  • The default keyboard shortcut is Ctrl+N.

New Recurring Event

  • After selecting this command, the Recurrence tab of the Event Editor window will be displayed, where a new recurring event can be defined.
  • This is the same as the "New Event" command, except the new event will default to be recurring.

New All Day Event

  • After selecting this command, the Event Editor window will be displayed, where a new all-day event can be defined.
  • This is the same as the "New Event" command, except the new event will default to being all-day.

New Contact

  • This command will cause the Contact Editor window to be displayed, where a new contact can be defined.
  • The new contact's File As value must be unique, otherwise the changes will overwrite the existing contact having the same File As value.

2. Delete

  • This command will delete the active or selected event, calendar, category, priority, or location.
  • Before the item is deleted, you will be prompted to confirm the deletion.
  • The keyboard shortcut for deleting an item is the Delete key.
  • When deleting a category, priority, or location, any existing events associated with the deleted item will be updated to remove the association.

3. Undo

  • This command will undo the most recent operation. The exact operation will be included as part of the Undo command's caption (example: Undo Delete Event).
  • After undoing an operation, the next recent operation will be associated with the Undo command, and the operation that was undone will be assigned to the Redo command.
  • There is no limit to the number of operations that can be added to the undo stack and associated with the Undo command.
  • The only time the undo stack will be cleared is when an operation is performed, such as importing events from an iCalendar file, that is too complex to be undone.
  • The following are examples of operations that can be undone:
    • Creating or deleting an item (calendar, event, task, category, etc)
    • Dismissing a reminder
    • Snoozing a reminder
    • Changing an item appearance (calendar, event, category, etc)
    • Rescheduling an event
    • Editing an event
    • Creating a new item (calendar, event, category, etc)
    • Categorizing or prioritizing an event
    • Marking an event as completed

4. Redo

  • This command will redo the previous undone operation.
  • If multiple operations were undone, the Redo command will redo each operation in the opposite order it was undone.
  • When a new operation is performed, the Redo command will become disabled until an operation is undone.
  • The list of operations that can be redone is the same as the ones that can be undone, and the Redo command's caption will include the operation description (example: Redo Delete Event).

5. Search

  • This command will cause the Search window to be displayed, where you can search for events containing specified text.
  • The first found event will be selected in the Calendar View.
  • The keyboard shortcut is Ctrl+F.

6. Print

  • This command will display the Print Settings window, where a print layout, date range, and various options can be specified.
  • A dynamic print preview can also be displayed. It will automatically update as print settings are changed.
  • After you're satisfied with the print settings, you can continue printing from the Print Settings window.
  • The default keyboard shortcut is Ctrl+P.

7. Today

  • Selecting this command will cause today's date to be displayed in the Calendar View.
  • The keyboard shortcut is Ctrl+T.
