Calendar Overview

The Calendar mode is designed to simplify your time management. You can use it to create various appointments, plan meetings and other assignments. Each appointment record has built-in alarm options, extended recurring options, priority marker, category and appointment progress tracker.

For your convenience and better visualization, the dates, which have appointments scheduled, are marked with the bold front on the program's calendar.

The Calendar mode does not show all the appointments recorded, it displays only   appointments planned for the Day, Work Week, Week, Month, Year or selected dates range on the programs calendar.

C-Organizer has two different Calendar submodes. When the "Time Grid" mode is on, appointments will be displayed in the calendar-like manner (time scale for selected day or calendar cells if you select week, month or year):

In this mode C-Organizer also shows birthdays, events and tasks. You can show or hide them by clicking an appropriate button on the program's toolbar ("Show Contacts", "Show Events" or "Show Tasks").

Moreover, the "Show Tasks" command has several additional options:

Show Tasks for selected period - when this option is on, C-Organizer will show tasks, which match to selected period on the program's calendar.

Show Tasks without date - if this option is selected, C-Organizer will include tasks without date into the Today's report.

Show all Tasks - when this option is on, C-Organizer won't filter tasks by period and will show all tasks entries.

Show Folders - using this option you can show or hide all tasks folders.

Minimize Tasks Panel - when this option is on, you will see only a small panel at the bottom of window with summary information: active tasks count and completed tasks count (if "Show Completed" option is on).

If the "Time Grid" mode is off, you will see your appointments as a list of entries:

In this mode C-Organizer shows appointments only (birthdays, events and tasks are not shown).

All entries in the list can be filled with the first category color, if this option is on (see the Calendar Preferences).

The planned appointment can be transferred to any other day by dragging and dropping. Just drag the appointment record to the desired date on the program's calendar using the mouse, and drop it. The appointment due date will change automatically. Besides, you can change the appointment time and duration by moving or resizing it (in the Time Grid mode only).

Also you can copy or cut any appointment and paste it into other date using an appropriate buttons on the program's toolbar, or shortcuts (Ctrl+C, Ctrl+X, Ctrl+V), or using the popup window in the Appointments area.

Every appointment can be set to repeat. You don't need to create the same appointment every time, just mark it as a recurring one. To match you expectations, C-Organizer provides extended recurring options.

Besides, in the view area you can see an appointment progress percentage (by clicking the button "Mark as Completed" you can mark any appointment as a completed one), appointment priority and whether an appointment description is available.

Also you can filter your entries by category. Just click the "Filter by Category" button. In this case you will see only appointments, which match to the selected categories. Please note, that this filter will also work for birthdays, events and tasks in the "Time Grid" mode.

To show or hide completed appointments click the "Show Completed" button. When you are in the List of entries mode, the expired records will be displayed in the red font color.

When appointment description is available, you can view it by pressing the following button: near the entry title (in the List mode). Furthermore, any appointment can be posted as an electronic sticker on a computers monitor. Just select an appointment and click the "Show as Sticker" button.

See the chapter How to preview a record and to work with stickers for more details.

Each entry can be edited directly in the view area, in the List mode you even can create a new entry by entering data in the upper row.
