You can also sort the calendar by Resource or by Date.

To adjust the amount of information you can see on the calendar, use the plus () and minus () buttons on the lower right border of the center portion of the calendar, if available. Double-click on any calendar entry to open the Manage Tasks window for that entry, where you can change who the Task is Assigned To, Contact, Start or Due Dates, or add Notes to the entry.
- The sliding Date Navigator on the right side of the calendar window displays full monthly views of the current month plus one month previous to today's date, as well as a few months into the future. This gives you a quick, convenient reference to help you schedule your Tasks.

- If you have selected a grouping option for the Schedule View, you will have the option of zooming in or out of the calendar to see more or less data. Use the increase visible data () or decrease visible data () buttons in the lower right corner of the calendar view's central panel to adjust the amount of data you can see on the calendar in the central panel.
