The Font options of the current week mini-calendar options let you specify font attributes of the individual dates and week numbers of the current week of a mini-calendar.

➢Note that the settings on this page, except for the Changes formatting, apply to both the @ mini-calendar dates markers and the w# mini-calendar week numbers markers.

The current week font options are accessible from the Dates tab of the Current Week section of the mini-calendar options dialog, as shown on the right.

Changes

The Changes field is used to specify the attributes of the current week dates originating from the @ mini-calendar dates markers.

The formatting of the current week w# mini-calendar week numbers markers is defined in the mini-calendar week numbers options.

Define As

The Define as setting is used to specify which week start is used to determine the current week.

Monday Weekstart

Monday weekstart means that the present current week options will assume that weeks start on a Monday, regardless of the setting of the GridOptions WeekStart or of the setting for the mini-calendar's WeekStart.

Minical Weekstart

Minical weekstart means that the present current week options will assume that weeks start on the weekday specified by the setting for the mini-calendar's WeekStart.

Grid Weekstart

Grid weekstart means that the present current week options will assume that weeks start on the weekday specified by the setting for the GridOptions WeekStart.

All Dates of Spread

All dates of spread means that the present current week font attributes specified in the Changes field will apply to all the dates contained in the current 2-page spread, and only to these dates that are contained in the current 2-page spread.

Using this setting could mean more than 7 days being highlighted, as is the case in the first example on the right, where a 2 weeks on 2 pages grid has all 14 days of its spread highlighted.

But it could also mean that fewer than 7 days are highlighted, as is the case in the second example, a week on 4 pages, with Monday to Thursday on pages 1 and 2 (the ones being displayed above), and Friday to Sunday, on pages 3 and 4 of that template.

Even Outside Days

The Even outside days option determines if the font attributes specified in the Changes field are also applied to any outside days which may be part of the current week or current spread selection of dates.

It is important to note that the Even outside days setting only determines if the font attributes specified in the Changes field will be applied to any visible outside days, but it is the outside days set of options which determine if a given outside day will be visible or not.

In the examples to the right, the left example uses Even outside days, while the right-side example does not. In both cases the outside days after the month are visible (highlighted in yellow), as determined by the Outside Days settings. When Even outside days is selected, visible outside dates that qualify for Current Week formatting also receive the formatting specified in Changes. Outside Days formatting can still apply to these dates. The formatting sequence and the Behavior settings determine how the two sets of attributes combine. Clearing this option excludes outside dates from Current Week formatting; it does not hide them.

Apply to Weeks of All Visible Dates of Spread

The Apply to weeks of all visible dates of spread option is used to apply the current week font attributes specified in the Changes field to all the days of all the weeks that have at least one date in the current 2-page spread.

In the example on the right, we have a 2 days on 2 pages grid, so our spread is only showing 2 days.

However, the use of the Apply to weeks of all visible dates of spread option means that all 14 days of 2 full weeks are changed to the font attributes specified in the Changes field, as the 2 days of the current spread are each in a separate week.

The two options select dates differently: All dates of spread selects only the dates represented on the current two-page spread. Apply to weeks of all visible dates of spread extends the selection to the weeks containing those dates.

•The number of dates visibly highlighted also depends on which dates appear in the mini-calendar and whether outside dates are visible and eligible for Current Week formatting.

•On the other hand, as seen in the first example of this topic, the option All dates of spread will sometimes apply to fewer days that a full week, if the current spread contains 4 days, for example.

The Apply to weeks of all visible dates of spread option can also be set to show or hide mini-calendar weekly bands.
