  • Checklist & Person - Opens a Task list: (CTRL+T) [Windows] or (Command-K) [Macintosh].
  • Day View - Shows the Agenda as a single day: (F8) [Windows].
  • Week View - Shows the Agenda as a week view: (F9) [Windows].
  • Month View - Shows the Agenda as a monthly view: (F10) [Windows].
  • Clock + - Creates a new meeting: (F2) [Windows] or (Command-N) [Macintosh].
  • Checklist + - Creates a new Task: (F7) [Windows] or (Command-T) [Macintosh].
  • Flag + - Creates a new Day Event: (F4) [Windows] or (Command-E) [Macintosh].

  • Binoculars - Opens a Search: (CTRL+F) [Windows] or (Command-F) [Macintosh].
  • Printer - Opens a Print dialog box: (CTRL+P) [Windows] or (Command-P) [Macintosh].

The second Tool bar provides easy navigation between dates. Based on the current view, the arrow button will act differently as noted in the table below. It also shows what date(s) are currently being viewed.

Clicking on the Today button will always take you to the current date. If you are in a week or month view, the Today button will bring you to the current week or month view.

The Pop-up Calendar button allows easy navigation directly to a specific day, month, or year.

Tip

  • When using the Pop-up Calendar to move to a new month and/or year, select the new month and/or year first, then click on the Day.
