A full page (standalone app: a space page and a global page both titled "Capable Calendar"; in the Suite: one entry titled "Calendar" inside the shared "Capable" page, subtitled "View dates from pages in a calendar"). It holds the catalogue of saved calendars, the per-calendar view with the full toolbar and view switcher, My Calendar, .ics import, export, and the Subscribe panel.

#Where you do it

Calendar configuration dialog on the General tab, with fields for calendar name, description, default view and base timezone, and tabs for Events, Pages, Appearance and Tags.
Every saved calendar carries its own name, default view and base timezone, all set from this dialog.
The create dialog opens on General, where a calendar gets its name, its default view and the timezone its events are co-ordinated by.
The Capable Calendar page with a sidebar listing space, global and built-in calendars, next to a September 2025 month grid holding several events.
Space calendars, global calendars and the two built-in calendars sit in the list on the left, and the one you pick is drawn beside it.

#Worth knowing

  • The survey called the "By Page" colour mode unreachable. That is wrong: it is not selectable on the Calendar macro, but it IS selectable on a saved calendar's Color Scheme.

#Limits that apply here

  • My Calendar sources
