Each appointment can be tagged with an unlimited number of categories to describe
its nature. To assign a category, create a new appointment or open an existing one,
and click the 'No category' area in the lower part of the dialog box. A dialog box
showing the available categories will display (Fig.1) . The categories that
will be added to the appointment must be checked. Then press OK.
Fig.1. The category dialog box lets you tag appointments with color categories
as well as create new categories, edit them and delete.
The New, Delete and Edit buttons are used to edit the category
list, create new ones and change the color scheme of the existing categories.
All categories are divided into 'local' and 'remote'. Local categories
are those created on the local machine by CodeTwo NetCalendars. Remote categories
have been created on other machines whose calendars we use. The remote categories
are pulled from the remote computers along with the appointments they belong to.
When we change the color of a remote category, it becomes local and will not change
is color scheme during the synchronizations that will follow even if the color is
changed on the remote machine where the category originated. If we delete a remote
category, it will appear again during the next synchronization with the remote machine
when a new or changed appointment is synced that is tagged with this category.
