Event Types

The Event Type Options allows the user to add, modify and delete Event Types that are shown in the Type drop list in the Event Entry dialog. This allows commonly used Event Types to be entered once and simply selected from the drop list and allows you to select the default event type that will show in the Event Entry dialog. You can also assign a color to each event type which is used to color-code events in the Calendar.

Event Types are useful in categorizing event types for sorting in the Event List and in the WinDates Filtering feature.

On this option page, there is a list box which shows the currently defined types, an edit box used to specify new or changed values, a color button used to specify the color of the current type and a read-only edit box used to show the current default event type.

Blank Event Type Color

This setting allows you to specify a default color that will be used to color-code events in the Calendar that do not have an assigned Event Type.
