Working with the event bars

By left clicking a bar you can select it (it will be displayed in a slightly lighter colour). To select multiple events, hold down SHIFT or CTRL while selecting a bar. You may also want to hold CTRL and drag a rectangle on the display to select all events contained in the rectangle. Right clicking a bar will show a context menu.

To change an event bars start or end, use left mouse button. Navigate to the left or right end, see the mouse cursor change to arrows, hold down left mouse button and move the mouse.

To change an event bars start and end at the same time, that is to translate or move it in time, hold down middle mouse button anywhere on the event and move the mouse.

To change a bars title, either use the event edit dialog (menu or context menu), or select the event and press F2, or hold down ALT while left clicking on the event.

If you provide a description for an event in the event edit dialog, you will also see this description when your mouse moves on the event if you enable tooltips (from menu View --> Event tooltips.

A bar can provide a link to a file, folder or url. This can be edited in the event edit dialog, accessible by menu or context menu (right mouse button). You can also drag a file or folder on the event bar. If you have saved the file already and drop a file path below the saved file's path, a relative link will be generated. Calizo uses './' as the folder where the ics file is located. '~/' on any platform (also Windows) will be the users home directory. You can also provide links in the form of 'http://', which will be opened by your default web browser if you follow the link. The link can be followed or opened by menu, context menu, double click, or hold SHIFT+CTRL while left clicking on the event.
