Calendar View
The Calendar View provides a traditional date-based perspective on your production schedule. It is the best tool for high-level release planning, managing recurring deadlines, and ensuring that no deliverables fall through the cracks.
Visualization Modes#
One control in the header switches between three time scales:
- Month: Ideal for seeing the broad arc of a project and upcoming release dates. The grid scrolls continuously — keep scrolling up or down and the months roll past, with the header naming the month at the top. The date arrows and Today still jump straight to a month.
- Week: A more detailed view of the current work cycle, showing task start and end times.
- Day: The same time grid narrowed to a single day, for when a week is too crowded to read. Everything you can do in Week mode — click-drag to schedule, dragging in from Unscheduled, moving and resizing — works exactly the same here. Arrow keys and the date arrows step one day at a time.
Switching scales keeps you on the same date, so you can zoom from a month down to a day and back without losing your place.
With the calendar focused, press 1 for Day, 2 for Week and 3 for Month. The keys are scoped to the calendar, so they never fire while you are typing in a title, a search box or a date field — and they do nothing on a shared calendar link or a canvas widget, where the Day/Week/Month control is not shown.
Hiding weekends#
Display → Weekends turns the Saturday and Sunday columns off in both Month and Week mode, narrowing the grid to the working week.
This only changes what is drawn — it never moves a date and never removes anything from your schedule. A task that runs from Friday to Monday keeps both of its real dates and simply paints on the days that are visible. If a week contains items that fall entirely on a weekend, that week shows a small "N on weekend" chip; click it to bring the weekend columns back. Day mode always shows the day you are on, weekend included.
Direct Interaction#
The Calendar is fully interactive, allowing for rapid schedule adjustments:
- Creating Items: Double-click on any empty date cell to quickly create a new Project or Task with that date pre-filled.
- Rescheduling: Drag any calendar card to a new date. Cuevue updates the UI immediately and saves the change in the background.
- Multi-Day Events: Drag the edges of a task bar to extend it across multiple days.
Week View Scheduling#
In Week mode, you can schedule work directly on the time grid:
- Click-drag to schedule: Drag on an empty timed lane to select a time range, then create a new item or attach an unscheduled one.
- Drag from Unscheduled: Pull items from the Unscheduled sidebar into either the timed grid or the All Day row.
- Move and resize events: Drag timed events to a different day/time, or drag top/bottom handles to adjust duration.
- Convert all-day ↔ timed: Drop a timed card into the All Day row (or drop an all-day card into a timed slot) to convert it.
Item Details#
Clicking on any card in the calendar opens the Quick-Detail Popover. This allows you to view and edit:
Integration and Sync#
If your Space has the Google Integration connected, with Calendar access granted:
- External Events: You can see your team's meetings and production shoots directly alongside your Cuevue projects.
- Two-Way Sync: Moving a "Release Date" in Cuevue can automatically update the corresponding event in your team's shared Google Calendar.
