Schedule Views
The different calendar layouts for looking at a schedule
A view is a layout for looking at a schedule. The same activities can be shown as a single day, a full week, a chronological list, or a set of side-by-side columns. Switching views lets you move between a wide overview and a focused, detailed look without changing any of the underlying activities. You change views from the view selector in the top-right of the schedule.
Day and Week
Day view shows a single day in detail, with hours running down the side. It is the right choice when you need to see everything happening on one day at a granular level.
Week view shows a standard seven-day week and is the default starting point for most schedules. It balances detail with enough range to see how a few days fit together.
Multi-day views
For events with a known, short duration, you can choose a view of 2 through 9 days. Picking a span that matches your event makes the most of the available screen space. A three-day conference reads well in a 3-day view, where the whole event is visible at once without the empty space a full week would leave.
Agenda
Agenda view lists activities chronologically instead of placing them on a time grid. It is the best way to read through a schedule top to bottom, especially when you care about the order and details of activities rather than how they sit against the clock.
Resource view
Resource view places each selected calendar in its own column for a single day, side by side. Instead of every calendar's activities stacking on top of each other in one set of day columns, each crew member, collaborator, or area you have selected gets a dedicated column.
This is built for comparison. When you need to see what each room is doing at the same time, or line up several collaborators' days against one another, Resource view keeps them visually separate so nothing overlaps. The columns are driven by the calendars you have selected in the sidebar, so adding or removing a calendar adds or removes a column.
Resource view is best when you have several calendars selected and want to compare them for a single day. With only one calendar selected it behaves like a standard Day view.
Navigating and zooming
Alongside the view selector, the schedule's time interval controls how finely the day is divided, which affects how much detail you see and how precise click-to-create and drag actions are. Combined with the views above, you can move from a wide multi-day overview down to a detailed single day, and use timeframes to jump straight to the part of the event you care about.
