The Calendar Overlay function is a convenient way of looking at all the events in one place instead of accessing your personal calendar or the group calendars separately in order to create a list of all the events. It is also a very helpful feature to use when organizing meetings or functions with other members on your team.
You can overlay your personal and/or the group(s) calendar in one view using the Calendar Overlay function. Selecting this option will enable you to look at all the events scheduled for the calendar view that is currently active by the month, week, or day.
To overlay your calendars, follow these steps:
At the bottom of the My Calendar page, you will find the Choose Specific Calendars to Overlay checkbox list. Using this list you can Overlay all Calendars by selecting the calendars you want to overlay.
On this list, you can choose one of the following options:
|
Personal |
To view your personal calendar, select this option. Please note that your "group events" will not be shown in this section. |
|
Group Calendars |
Select the group calendars you want to view. |
|
Specific Calendars to Overlay |
If the Choose Specific Calendars to Overlay region does not appear, click the Advanced button. In this area, you can select from a list the calendars you want to overlay. You can overlay groups you are a member of. Selecting a group calendar will bring up the calendar for the group with all the events scheduled in that group. Note: Your personal events will not be shown in this calendar to others. |
When you have made your calendar selections, click the Overlay Specific Groups button.
A calendar with all the events appears from both your personal/group calendars.
