This section explains how users can modify the time period and time scale visible in the Graphical Scheduler.

Definition: The “Dates and Zoom” action allows users to modify the time period that is visible in the Graphical Scheduler along with the time scale. Any change to the time period and/or time scale is user specific and every time the Graphical Scheduler is loaded, the time period and time scale will revert to the default values configured in the view of the Graphical Scheduler. If the user selects another view, this will reset the parameters of the “Dates and Zoom” action.

How to access

  1. Navigate to the “Graphical Scheduler” page.
  2. Click on the “Dates and Zoom” action

  • Day and Week: Week scale on the top, Days underneath
  • Hour and Day: Day scale on the top, hours underneath.

NOTE: When the setting “Date Adjustment Mode” is set to “Adjust scale”, it is the length of the time period selected that will automatically set the time scale. See the “Modifying the Graphical Scheduler Settings” section in this document for more information.
