Advanced Techniques - Show appointments from other calendars
This Advanced Techniques post shows you how you can show appointments from
other calendar applications in a calendar, for example in the calendar you
use the most. To begin with, create a
new application
based on the
Calendar template.
Publish the application via the
Main menu: File / Publish application. In the same way, create a
second calendar application and
rename it
to
Calendar 2.
Publish this application as well.
In every application, which is created with the
Calendar template,
a
Plugin
is already defined. In the second calendar, the plugin from the first calendar
is now added, so that its appointment can be shown here as well.
To do that, select the
Calendar page in the
Application structure.
Open the properties dialog of the
diagram
by double-clicking on it. Click on
Add plugin. In the next dialog, select the calendar application
we created first from the drop-down list. Close all of the open dialogs by clicking on
OK in each case and then save the application.
Switch to the browser and add any appointment to the first calendar.
Switch to the second calendar.
The appointment from the first calendar is now shown here. With one click, you
can hide the appointments from the first calendar by deactivating the
corresponding plugin on the left-hand side.
This can be done by deactivating the checkbox next to the plugin whose
appointments should be hidden. You can find more information about the
Calendar template
here.
