CALENDAR TOOL

  Back

DESCRIPTION:


The calendar tool displays data for one month or an entire year.  You can access each view using the "Month" and "Year" tabs at the top.  It shows data for each day that corresponds to an entry in the journal, and can be used to navigate.  Click once on any date to display that day in the journal.

By default, each calendar square is color-coded by workout type.  Light blue denotes a cardiovascular workout, purple indicates a weight training workout, dark blue represents both, and gray means data has been recorded (such as meals or measurements), but no workouts were entered.  Other squares are shown in the normal background color.  The dates on each calendar square are also color-coded.  A date with a yellow background means one of the workouts recorded on that day was a competition.  The current date is always highlighted in red.

If color-coding is disabled (see the "Preferences" tab in the profile editor), every day that corresponds to an entry in the journal will appear gray.  For convenience, there is a color key at the bottom of the screen.  Only one data field can be shown at a time.  The data displayed is determined by the "Category" and "Field" drop-down menus.  If there is more than one workout on a given day, data values are listed in the same order the workout tabs appear in the journal.  To ensure data can always be seen, scroll bars will automatically appear in calendar squares that have multiple lines of data. 

MENUS:

Month Specifies the month to display on the calendar.  By default, this is initialized to the current month. 
Year Specifies the year for which the currently selected month will be displayed on the calendar.  By default, this is initialized to the current year.
Category Specifies the journal category.  This determines the journal fields that will be shown in the "Field" menu.  For example, if "Cardiovascular" is selected, only fields related to a cardiovascular workout (such as running, cycling or swimming) will be listed.
Field Specifies the journal data field to display in each calendar square that corresponds to a workout.  The list of fields is determined by the category selected.  Data displayed on the calendar will update instantly anytime a new field is selected.
