  • single events - project meetings
  • events that span days - conferences
  • private notes - a special person's birthday
  • private appointments - your next doctor's appointment
To open the calendar, click on the calicon.png

and the calendar window will open.

Note that the current day is highlighted yellow. The calendar window can be resized to show as much or as little detail as desired. Depending upon the size of the calendar window, the days with scheduled events are bolded and the event color is displayed.
