Open and View Agenda Pages

Through Oracle Calendar, you can open your own Agenda, another person(s) Agenda or you can open an Agenda as a Designate. Follow these steps:

  1. To open an Agenda, do one of the following:
    • Windows: Select File > Open > Agenda or File > Open as Designate to open the Agenda of a person who has named you as Designate (see Oracle Calendar: Working as a Designate for more information on Designates).
    • Mac: Select File > Agenda > Open or Open as Designate to open the Agenda of a person who has named you as Designate (see Oracle Calendar: Working as a Designate for more information on Designates).
  2. Agendas are presented in three view formats: daily, weekly or monthly. Although there are similarities when working in any of the views, there are some subtle differences.
  3. Select View > Day, or click on the View Day button in the Toolbar.
  4. Select View > Week, or click on the View Week button in the Toolbar.
    • In Week View, a full week is displayed with time slots for each day of the week. Each of the Day Views contained in Week View behave in the same way as when in Day View.
    • In Week View, single-click the heading of any of the day columns to bring up the Daily Agenda page for that day.
  5. Select View > Month, or click on the View Month button in the Toolbar. An entire month is displayed.
    • In Month View, you can resize individual columns (i.e., weekdays) or rows (i.e., individual weeks) in the Month View by clicking and dragging the splitters you want to move with the View Resizing cursor.
      Note:
      To zoom in on a particular day when you are in Month view, double-click on that day's heading.

Using the View Menu

Options listed under the View menu allow you to easily choose the way your Agenda page appears on the screen. Follow these notes to alter your view selections:

  • Select from View > Icons, Toolbar, Status Bar, or Reminders to toggle between exposing or hiding these features.
  • In Day or Week view, select View > Decrease/Increase Time Interval (or Slot) to decrease or increase the way your time slots are incremented.
  • In Day or Week view, select View > Decrease/Increase Row Height to enlarge the line space for each time slot.
