Hi!

My client was using a simpler calendar built with FileMaker and was used to move rapidly in it. For example, he was able to move year by year (not only by month). It is so important to him that it may be a reason to disregard your very good calendar. It would be nice to get this feature in the calendar and the "mini-calendar" (the one in the Home panel). Is it already there? Is it easy to implement? Any idea?

Thanks!

Hey!

If your client has a mini calendar they already like they can use that to navigate dates in DayBack. Just have it pass it's date into the DayBack script described here: http://www.seedcode.com/pmwiki/index.ph ... Navigation

I might place this to the left of DayBack's web viewer, along with any scripted filters you'd like. Just make the web viewer more narrow so you have some FileMaker layout space to the left of it. Then maybe pull the "home" tab from the sidebar following the instructions here: http://www.seedcode.com/pmwiki/index.ph ... eMaker.CSS

(The css class for that home tab is .mini-calendars)

FWIW, the date picker DayBack uses when you're editing an event *does* support year selection: we should make some improvements to the ones used in the sidebar.

Hope that helps!
