What's New ?

Classic View
You can use Classic View to display more hours during the day in the Daily View.

Create Events on Date Selected
When you create a new event (meeting, activity, or banner) from the taskbar or the File menu, the event is created on the date you have selected in the Monthly Navigator instead of the current date.

New User Interface and Streamlined Workflow
The calendar interface has been updated and access to features has been streamlined.

Task Bar Links to Commonly Used Functions

  • Change to a Day, Week, Month or Text View
  • Change to a Group View
  • Show Proxies in your Calendar
  • Create Activity, Meeting, Banner, or a To Do Item
  • Move to a different date in any calendar view using the Calendar Navigator

Enhanced E-mail Functionality
You can now contact attendees and send them attachments using your own email client while you are creating or viewing a meeting.

Integrated Group View
The Master Schedule has been enhanced and is now known as the Group View. You can use the Group View to view the availability of a group of Meeting Maker users, resources, or locations. If you include proxies in your Group View, you may be able to view and work with the schedules of your proxies from the Group View, if your environment allows it.

Side-by-Side Proxies
When you show a proxy in your Daily View, the proxy’s schedule appears side by side with your own, with a separate column for that proxy in each day.

Recurring Banners
You can create banners that recur at regular intervals. Recurring banners also now synchronize with Palm device no-time events.

New Text View
The Text View provides a simple list of events by day. The time of each event appears in the left margin of the text view. The text view lists the title and location of each event. It also lists the proposer of meetings you did not propose.

Edit Events from the Daily View
You can now change the title of an event and perform other changes directly from the Daily View.

Pencil-in Meetings
Incoming meeting invitations can now appear on your calendar as penciled-in meetings. Penciled-in meetings do not affect busy time until you accept them. You can accept or decline them directly from your calendar.
