okay so let's go in and take look at
this settings
the General Settings in regards to the
active Desktop Calendar
we will take a look at in regards to
calendar
notes alarm contacts and so on
their setups has to be done in the
settings so
it's going to take a look where we find
that how we said
welcome back everyone this is class
number seven
we will look at settings in this class
and I assume that the people who is
returning had looked at my prior classes
I'm figure about to download the program
the installation up the program and set
up the registration at the program the
navigation
in regards navigating the program then
desktop layout picker how that works
and then the data integration this it
how that works
ads now we're down at seven where we go
in and look at settings
and we have been there before because
remember when we set up the desktop
layout picker
we had to go into the settings to go in
and in
a ball give you of the notes tusk
and calendar that we see here because
when the program can install then we
started up these things we're not on the
desktop they were not enabled so they
were not visible here
but you had to go to Settings to set it
up
and that's where we'll go now we'll take
a closer look at settings because that
is really the core
ants the control panel for the whole
desktop calendar here so when we want to
start up the setup we could do it from
different places and I have mentioned
seven times in my class its I have a
active disappeared my desktop I have one
down on my taskbar
in the quick lunch and if day active
Desktop Calendar is running
it will be down here on the right side
we can see there is a small
14 was paid sadness because I've set it
up to be like that
that is to date today but you could also
see it by if you move the mouse over to
notes and to task if you click on the
right side a mouse
you can see that there aren't some in
your points coming up here says
exit menu open calendar and at new notes
ants
it only comes up if day active Desktop
Calendar is running and I can go down he
in turn it off by going down to
the task by here identification click on
the right side the mouse and see
exit takes a few seconds and its turned
off and if I go over here again
hover over did note seeger and I click
on the right side you see that the
menu that is coming up here too many
points have chains because now
what you do is you were able now to set
up your
screen resolutions and personalize your
desktop and so on but had nothing to do
would you active Desktop Calendar so we
have to get the active Desktop Calendar
up running again so if I click on that
down here on my task by quick lunch
then what will come up here is of course
to Windows one
is too active deceptive and the default
that's coming up and then here that is
sad note
five days view is coming up and as you
can see here I can minimize the default
calendar
by doing that appear but in regards to
my notes the five day for you
I can either keep it place it somewhere
on my screen
if I have multiple monitors I couldn't
take it away put it somewhere else
in my case you'll just close it I'll do
that and then in regards to my default
calendar hero put that up in the left
corner here so that I have standing here
ants this settings we can see is found
here on the shortcuts we have settings
here
we could have gone down to the touch but
down in the right corner
where we can see don't use the small
date to you with a fourteen ways has
acted estava click on the right side and
you can see he I coulda press settings
here
and the settings is like I said is to
control panel
and in here we have to set certain
things up
when we start using the program we have
been here before like I said when we
went into the desktop layout picker
because we couldn't see the calendar on
our desktop could see the note to the
task so what we did
we waited here at we take them off and
then we went down and say apply and then
we could see them
if we remove these and say apply didn't
our information on our desktop will
disappear so D's
normally has to be checked off your
Nancy apply also what we could do here
is that we can
define in regards to do we want the
desktop
to start up when we start Windows other
other things we want to do in regards to
here for instance notes out to delete
old notes that so on so many days
how many no still want to display a the
next 120 days
or more in regards to day two action
with the desktop
in regards to the mouse click getting
somewhere do we want that to be a double
click or do we want that to be a single
mouse click
for me I normally say a double mostly
because I don't want to have stuff
open by mistakes butts it's up to you
also here you can see the collector
Standaard the first day every week
we can define that you can see this is
set to Monday but some
perhaps starts this Saturday or Sunday
you can see the time formats
begin your Europe you have a twenty-four
hours but if you're in the US
mostly day are running with a 12-hour
clock here with AM and PM
there's other things here when we go
into the notes and touched by you can
see it here
that's where we had just where we wont
our notes untouchable place on our
screen this size and position up its
we can adjust that here if we go up to
the calendar appearance
we can control the calendar in regards
to the high subtle
placing a bid and the vertical placing a
bid then also
do you want decal in the to be there
when we exit
the program some says no because that if
trickle in the disappears and I
the program is exit then I know it's not
up running that's the way of seeing and
also
instead of putting the mouse over here
and click on the right mouse button
if their calendars not update we were
sure thats that
active Desktop Calendar is not started
there is so many things here
that can be set up controlled by funds
collars and so on that he will take a
long
long time for me to go to every single
thing here
what I want to do is just too make you
aware where you can find information in
regards to the settings here
when you go up here ads let's say okay
here
and then we go up you 20 calendar and we
go up to help
and we say help a week at a press f1 all

by
notification if you click on the right
side you see doubt here
you have help here so if I click Help

and here is the help you can see here
that's
here you can see different places you
can get help and the one we want to look
at
is the settings we just are talking
about the settings so if I click in

can see here when you see did taps over
year he is the tap so
if I am on a gentle tap and I want to
know something about
exit program ads and pop-up and so on
that I could go in
under general and then if I go down I
take
elevator down here and then I go down
and find out in regards
to the outer sation here exit program
and it tells you a little bit out
what it will do when you either check it
off
what it means in regards to the time
here and so on
everything did you see in the taskbar if
you doubt

that will help you quickly so that you
just go up here
just make it back again and say yeah but
