Event Manager lets you add personal events before or after adding a calendar
to the page.
If you have adopted a calendar-based design template, you'll be initially
prompted to configure global calendar details via a User Details dialog. This
updates all calendar details throughout your PagePlus document—in the same
way that you'd set up the date (along with the time) on some alarm clocks.
For calendar-specific properties, a context toolbar lets you change an existing
calendar's month/year, modify calendar-specific properties, and manage
calendar events (both personal and public holidays).
At any time, you can update calendar details throughout your publication via Set
User Details—in the same way that you'd set up the date (along with the time)
on some alarm clocks. This is especially useful if you want to update the year on
a year-to-view page, composed of 12 monthly calendars—you only need to
change the year in one place.
To insert a calendar:
1. Click the Table flyout on the Tools toolbar and choose
Insert
Calendar.
2. Click again on your page, or drag out to set the desired size of the
calendar.
3. From the displayed Calendar Wizard, define options for your
calendar including setting the year and month, calendar style (square,
or in single or double column format), week start day, room to write,
display options, switching on personal events/holidays, and calendar
format.
To have your country's public holidays shown, check Add public
holidays in the wizard and select a Region from the associated drop-
down menu. To add personal events, check Add personal events
additionally.
4. Click Finish to complete the wizard.
If you plan to use your calendar in subsequent years, simply update the Year
setting in Tools>Set User Details (use the dialog's Calendars tab if not shown).
