  <title>Managing your Schedule</title>

     <para>
      This chapter will show you how to use the Ximian Evolution
      Calendar to manage your schedule alone or in conjunction with
      peers.
     </para>

    <sect1 id ="usage-calendar-view"> 
    <title>Ways of Looking at your Calendar</title>
    <para>
       The toolbar offers you four different views of your calendar:
       <itemizedlist>
    <listitem>
      <para>
        Day
      </para>

        Month
      </para>
    </listitem>
      </itemizedlist>
</para>
<para>
      Press the calendar-shaped buttons on the right side of the toolbar to
      switch between views. 
</para>
<para>
      You can also select an arbitrary range of days in the small
      calendar at the upper right.  To do this, click and drag on the
      days that you wish to view in your calendar.
    </para>
    <para>
       The <guibutton>Prev</guibutton> and <guibutton>Next</guibutton>
       buttons will move you forward and back in your calendar pages.
       If you're looking at only one day, you'll see tomorrow's page,
       or yesterday's.  If you're looking at your calendar by week or
       month, you'll move around by just that much.
       To come back to today's listing, click the
        <guibutton>Today</guibutton> button in the toolbar.
    </para>
    <para>
       To visit a specific date's calendar entries, click
       <guibutton>Go To</guibutton> and select the date in the dialog
       box that appears.
    </para>

  </sect1>
  <sect1 id="usage-calendar-apts">
    <title>Scheduling With the Evolution Calendar</title>
    <para>
      Of course, you'll want to use the calendar to do more than find
      out what day it is. This section will tell you how to schedule
      appointments, set alarms, and determine appointment
      recurrence. If you have installed the Ximian Connector for
      Microsoft Exchange, you can also read <xref
      linkend="full-advantage"> to learn about how to take full
      advantage of the collaborative group scheduling functions
      available on the Microsoft Exchange Server.
    </para>

    <sect2 id="usage-calendar-apts-basic">
      <title>Creating appointments</title>
      <para>
    To create a new appointment, select
        <menuchoice>
      <guimenu>File</guimenu>
      <guisubmenu>New</guisubmenu> 
      <guimenuitem>Appointment</guimenuitem>
    </menuchoice>
    or click the <guibutton>New Appointment</guibutton> button on the left end
    of the toolbar. The <interface>New Appointment</interface>
    dialog will pop up with the menu bar, tool bar, and
    window full of choices for you.
      </para>
      <tip id="new-appointment-shortcut">
        <title>Shortcut</title>
        <para>
           If you don't need to enter more information than the date
           and time of the appointment, you just click in any blank
           space in the calendar and start typing. You can enter other
           information later with the appointment editor.
        </para>
      </tip>

      <para>
        Your appointment must have a starting and ending date &mdash; by
        default, today &mdash; but you can choose whether to give it
        starting and ending times or to mark it as an <guilabel>All
        day event</guilabel>. An <guilabel>All day event</guilabel>
        appears at the top of a day's appointment list, in the grey header under the date, rather than inside
        it.  That makes it easy to have appointments that overlap and fit
        inside each other.  For example, a conference might be an all
        day appointment, and the meetings at the conference would be timed
        appointments.  Of course, appointments with specific starting and ending
        times can also overlap.  When they do they're displayed as
        multiple columns in the day view of the calendar.
      </para>
      <para>
    <application>Evolution</application> supports the use of
    timezones.  If you share calendar files with friends or
    co-workers, it is quite possible you will need to configure
    your timezone.  To configure your timezone:
    <orderedlist numeration="arabic">
      <listitem>
        <para>
          Click 
          <menuchoice>
        <guimenu>Tools</guimenu>
        <guimenuitem>Calendar Settings</guimenuitem>
          </menuchoice>
        </para>
      </listitem>
      <listitem>
        <para>
          Click the <guibutton>Globe</guibutton> button in the
          <guilabel>Time</guilabel> section, located in the
          <guilabel>General</guilabel> tab.
        </para>
      </listitem>
      <listitem>
        <para>
          Each red dot represents a major city.  Click a dot and click <guibutton>OK</guibutton> to select your time zone.
        </para>
      </listitem>
    </orderedlist>
      </para>
      <para>
    You can also configure timezone information specific to the
    Start and End time in each appointment.  To do that, simply
    create a new appointment and click on a globe to customize the
    timezone that the time exists in. For example, if you live in
    New York but have a telephone meeting set for noon with
    someone in California, you need to make sure that you're not
    calling each other a few hours off.  Setting time-zones on a
    per-appointment basis helps avoid that potential confusion.
      </para>
      <note>
       <title>Multiple Simultanious Appointments</title>
         <para>
           If you create calendar appointments that overlap,
           <application>Evolution</application> will display them side
           by side in your calendar.  However,
           <application>Evolution</application> cannot help you do
           multiple things at once.
         </para>
      </note>
      <para>
         You can have as many
         <guilabel>Alarms</guilabel>, any time prior to the appointment
         you've scheduled.  You can have one alarm of each of the following types:
          <variablelist>
           <varlistentry>
        <term><guilabel>Display:</guilabel></term>
        <listitem>
          <para>
            A window will pop up on your screen to remind you of
            your appointment.
              </para>
        </listitem>
      </varlistentry>
      <varlistentry> 
        <term><guilabel>Audio:</guilabel></term>
        <listitem>
          <para>
            Choose this to have your computer deliver a sound
            alarm.

      <varlistentry>
        <term><guilabel>Program:</guilabel></term>
        <listitem>
          <para>
            Select this if you would like to run a program as a
            reminder.  You can enter its name in the text field,
            or find it with the <guibutton>Browse</guibutton>
            button.
              </para>
        </listitem>

      </para>
      <para>
         <guilabel>Classification</guilabel> 
         only applies to calendars on a
         network. <guilabel>Public</guilabel> is the default category,
         and a public appointment can be viewed by anyone on the calendar
         sharing network.  <guilabel>Private</guilabel> denotes one
         level of security, and <guilabel>Confidential</guilabel> an even 
         higher level.
      </para>
      <para>
    <application>Evolution</application> can handle not only time
    that you're busy, but free time. This can be useful if you're
    on a network sharing calendar files.  You can easily compare
    schedules with other people, allowing easy setup of a RSVP.
      </para>
      <para>
    To set your appointment to be free or busy, simply click the
    box in the <guilabel>Show Time As</guilabel> section in the
    <guilabel>Appointment Editor</guilabel>.
      </para>
      <para>
        <application>Evolution</application> lets you categorize your
    appointments, which can help if you lead a busy life.  The bottom
    section of the <guilabel>Appointment</guilabel> tab is where your
    categorization is done.
      </para>
      
      <tip>
      <title>Adding a New Appointment Category</title>
    <para>
     You can add a new category to your category list by clicking on
         <guibutton>Edit Master Category List</guibutton> and single-clicking
     on <guilabel> Click here to add a category</guilabel>.
    </para>
      </tip>

      <para>
     The purpose of categories is to let you view all appointments which have
     similar activities.  To do this, change <guilabel>Any field contains</guilabel>
     to <guilabel>Has category</guilabel> and enter your category at right.
      </para>

      <para>
    Clicking on the <guibutton>Categories</guibutton> button opens up the category
    list.  To associate a category to an appointment, simply click the check box.
