How to Customize Time Spans

Finding Time Span Settings

Understanding Time Span Options

Tailor each Time Span you create with these settings:

• Label: Give your view a descriptive name for easy reference.

• Icon Name: Select an icon for quick visual identification.

• Unit: Choose whether this view will focus on 'days', 'weeks', or 'months'.

• Span: Determine the number of units to display (e.g., a 'Week' unit with a span of 2 will show a two-week view).

• Timeline Headers (Timeline View Only for the Selected Display): Control how dates are displayed at the top of your Timeline view.

For instance, to show week numbers, set your calendar to 'Timeline', choose 'Week' as your time span, and then configure the timeline headers to display 'Week' and 'Month'.
