Calendar

A calendar is a page that places an entity's records on the day one of their dates holds. It shows a month or a week, steps back and forth with the arrows, and Today brings it back to today.

What builds it

• Date that places it — a date field, a date and time field, or a system field such as Created at. Dates with a time show it before the title, in the application's time zone.
• End date — optional, of the same type as the first. The record shows on each day between the two; the time shows on the first.
• Color by — optional, a choice or the state. Each value takes a color, and the legend names them above the calendar.
• Records open in — the form a record opens in when clicked; the entity's first when none is chosen.
• Filters — the same as tables'; Me is whoever looks at the calendar, so each person sees their own.

Moving and adding

• Whoever can edit records drags them to another day to change their date; the time is kept and the end date shifts along. The keyboard works too: space to pick it up, arrows to move it, space to drop it.
• Each day's + opens the form with that date filled in; a date and time starts at 9:00.
• A calendar by a system field, such as Created at, is only for looking: those dates aren't changed by hand.

Good to know

• By month each day shows three records; +N more opens its week with all of them.
• Each period shows up to 500 records; past that, a notice asks to filter the calendar.
• A calendar whose date field is gone says it couldn't be shown; it's fixed in its settings.
