INTERFACE OVERVIEW
The main CalendarSMS window appears as shown below. Move the mouse pointer and click the appropriate section to show more information.
1. Resource Toolbar
The resource toolbar displays the list of resources you have allocated. This toolbar allows you to add, delete or edit an existing resource.
[NOTE]
-
There must be at least one resource available in order for CalendarSMS to operate, thus you cannot delete your last remaining resource.
-
Deleting a resource may also take a few minutes depending on the number of appointments associated to that resource.
2. Appointment Toolbar
The appointment toolbar allows you to add an appointment and change the mode of the main view.
3. Calendar Bar
The Calendar bar allows you to navigate to specific date, month or year. It also allows you to choose the range of dates to be displayed in the main view.
4. Property Bar
The Property bar allows you to change the view mode, change the display text of an appointment, and set the work time interval.
5. Main View
The main view displays all the appointments you created associated to a resource.
