Manage events on the grid

Interact with the Calendar grid to schedule and reschedule events.

About the Calendar grid

The grid is the central element of Timebook's Calendar module. You can use it to add , move them to a different time slot, or change their duration.

In addition, you can . This enables you to work from your Calendar as you book time for Meetings and the actual work in one place.

So don't stay off the grid, even if you are working on a secret project.


Create events on the Calendar grid

There are several ways of creating events in the Calendar module. Using the grid may be the easiest option, as you schedule your events at the same time.

To create events on the grid:

  1. Press anywhere on your Calendar grid.

  2. Select the event you want to create. You can choose from: Meeting, Task, Shared Availability, Focus Time, Out of Office, Appointment, and Poll. For more information, see Events

  3. A tile representing the event appears on the grid. Also, the event card opens, and you can define the details of your event.

There are other ways to create events in Timebook, such as the [+], [Share], and [Meet] buttons above the grid.

You can explore all the options to find the most convenient one.


Modify events on the Calendar grid

The Calendar grid helps you reschedule without much effort. You can change the dates and times of your scheduled events with just a drag-and-drop. This option works for both hosts and guests.

Rescheduling your events in Timebook is easy as you can use the grid to move the events around:

  • You can drag an event across your Calendar and drop it onto a new time slot.

  • To change the duration of an event, drag the lower edge of the event’s tile.

  • As a host, after making a change, you can notify your guests about it. To do so, check the [Notify guests] box in the pop-up window you receive after updating an event.

  • As a guest, after making a change, press [Propose] on the resulting pop-up. You will then see a dedicated modal to view the host's Calendar, make necessary changes, optionally attach a message, and [Send] your proposal.

When you update a recurring event, we will ask you if you want to apply this change to the current event only, this and future events, or all events (including the past ones).

Your decision will affect the selected events in your Calendar.

Unless your guests accept the new date and time (or the updated duration), they will be considered "tentative" for this event.
