# Glossary

Calendar Widget

  A tool for choosing the date inside certain entry windows, like event editing window. It is displayed as a small button to the right of the date field. When you click the button, you will see a month calendar. Use the arrows to go to a desired date, or click on the month name or year number to go directly to the desired month or year.

Date Navigator

  The calendar that is in the upper-left corner of the Korganizer window. It is the main way provided to navigate among dates, and to select from them. The single-arrow icons move forwards and backwards in time by increments of a month, while the double-arrows allow moving by years at a time. Today's date will be outlined with a small box. Dates which have events scheduled on them will be bold. If you want to select a date, simply click on it. Hold down the Control key and click the dates if you wish to select multiple neighbor dates at once. The dates will be displayed in the main panel.

  Recuring events are not always displayed. You can forbid the display of recuring appointments in the Date Navigator. Get more information in the Views chapter.

Due Date

  A due date is simply the date when your task must be finished. For instance, if your To-Do task is that you must return your books to the library by 16th November, that date is called "the To-Do task due date"

Group scheduling features

  These features are planned for the future versions of Korganizer. Group scheduling will facilitate member roles (attendee, owner, organizer), time conflict resolution, event reminder distribution, response collection and evaluation. In other words, you will be able to appoint attendees, invite them automatically, and see who accepted or refused attending the appointment.

  Currently, group scheduling features are not working. However, hooks exist in the calendar data structures for these features. Private checkbox, Require response checkbox and E-mail field will then be fully employed. These controls are described in more detail in Entering Data chapter, in the Attendees section of Windows reference, and in the Personal Preferences section.

Main panel

  Normally the largest part of the screen, to the right of the Date Navigator. It displays the View of the day, workdays, week or month, the List View or the To-Do View.

  The right mouse button can be used in the List view and To-Do view only. It displays a local menu. The left mouse button can be used in any view.
