Overview

The Day View shows entire day(s), divided into timeslots. It can show up to 14 consecutive days side-by-side, independent of the week in which they belong. 

An example Day View.

Day View Settings

Clicking the "gear" button in the upper-right corner of the Day View will result in a menu appearing where the Day View settings can be modified.

The Day View settings menu allows the Day View to be customized.

1 Day...14 Days

To adjust the number of simultaneously displayed days, select a day count from the menu. Up to 14 days can be displayed side-by-side. When multiple days are displayed, the left and right navigation arrows will cause the Day View to move by the selected number of displayed days.

Timeslot Length

The displayed timeslot length can be adjusted between 1 and 60 minutes. The default timeslot length is 30 minutes. The zoom in/out buttons (to the left of the settings button) can also be used to adjust the timeslot length. In addition, if your mouse has a scrollwheel, you can hold the Ctrl key while scrolling the mouse wheel up or down to zoom in or out.

View in Overlay Mode

When viewing in overlay mode, all calendars will be merged into a single view, as shown in the example screenshot above. In other words, each date will be shown only once, and if multiple events belonging to multiple calendars exist within those dates, the events will be overlaid in the day. Tasks and notes are also overlaid.

View Separate Columns

There are two options for how columns are to be arranged when overlay mode is disabled.

Show Start/End Times

When this option is checked, start and end times will be shown in the event or task blocks, eliminating the need to visually scan over to the time bar along the left side in order to see when an event or task occurs. Uncheck this option to make more space for item titles and descriptions.

Show Description/Details

When this option is checked and enough space is available, descriptions and details will appear in the event and task blocks. This option can be unchecked if your workplace requires this information to be hidden (i.e., HIPAA regulations), or if you want to keep details of events away from prying eyes.

Today and Zoom Buttons

Additional buttons are shown to the left of the settings button.

Today

Clicking the Today button will move the Day View to the current date. The button's icon will always show the current date.

Zoom Out

Clicking this button will increase the time slot length. This is equivalent to selecting the time slot length from the Day View Settings menu or holding the Ctrl key while scrolling the mouse wheel down.

Zoom In

Clicking this button will decrease the time slot length. This is equivalent to selecting the time slot length from the Day View Settings menu or holding the Ctrl key while scrolling the mouse wheel up.
