Calendar: Month, Week & Day
After reading this article you can switch the events calendar and the inquiries calendar between month, week and day, move through busy weeks with ease, spot events that are not yet confirmed at a glance, and see inquiries and events together in one calendar.
The calendar no longer shows your events by month only: you can switch to a week or a day view at any time. This helps especially when a single week is packed with events and the month cells get too small.
Switching between month, week and day
- Open Events and pick the Calendar view in the top right.
- At the top of the calendar you'll find the Month · Week · Day switch. Click the level you want.
- Use Previous/Next (the arrows) to move by a month, a week or a day depending on the level. Today jumps back to the current period.
- In month view you can also use the month/year picker to jump straight to a specific month.
- In week view the seven days sit side by side, each with much more room for that day's events.
- The day view shows a single day at full width.
Tip: Your last chosen view is remembered – jump into an event and back and you land on the same zoom level.
Create an event from the calendar
A double-click on a day creates a new event on that date – in month, week and day view alike.
Spotting events that aren't confirmed yet
Events that are still “Planned” show up in the calendar with a striped fill instead of a solid color — no matter which color the event otherwise has. That way you can tell at a glance which dates on the calendar are not yet finally confirmed. Hovering a striped event shows the same explanation right on the bar.
The small legend below the calendar only appears if striped events can occur in your workspace at all. If you renamed the “Planned” status, you will not see a legend – that is not an error. Otherwise it stays there permanently, even in months without a single striped event.
The stripes only appear for the default status “Planned”. If you renamed that status, it carries your own meaning in your workspace – the bars then stay solid so that nothing is wrongly read as still open.
Inquiries too
The calendar in the Inquiries area has the same month / week / day switch. Rejected inquiries stay hidden there as usual, unless you filter for them on purpose.
Inquiries and events in one calendar
So you do not have to jump between the two calendars to check whether a date is still free, you can show the other one inside each calendar. You find both switches under Settings › Status columns, right below Calendar colour. They start switched off.
- Show open inquiries in the events calendar: Open inquiries appear in the events calendar with a dashed outline, slightly faded and labelled Inquiry. Clicking one opens the inquiry. The legend below the calendar then shows Open inquiry. The events list, the status view and all event counts stay unchanged — open inquiries only appear in the calendar.
- Show events in the inquiries calendar: Your events appear in the inquiries calendar in grey, labelled Event. Clicking one opens the event. Cancelled events are not shown, and an event that is already shown as an inquiry does not appear twice.
The dashed inquiry is not the same as the stripes: the stripes mark an event that is not confirmed yet; the dashed outline marks an inquiry that has not become an event yet.
Tip: Even without these switches, every inquiry warns you itself when something already overlaps at the same time — see Accept, reject, or convert an enquiry into an event.
