!! How can I use the text filter?
DayBack will filter its view against anything you type into the text filter and will look for your string in the following places:
-> - In any field in an event (anything you can "see" in the calendar or when you click on an event);
-> - In the event's calendar name, so include a whole calendar by including its name;
-> - In any [[additional fields]].
