# The Calendar Editor

### Calendar Product Properties

Use this to set the year and starting month for the calendar. The calendar year comprises 12 months, starting with the month you set.

### Calendar object browser

The object browser comprises of three different tabs: "Images", "Layout" and "Background".

If needed, you can select a background for the calendar page currently displayed in the editor. You can leave the background white, or insert your own image as a background (command in the image drop-down menu).
Predefined "Layouts" with various calendars are available; simply select a layout that matches your requirements.
You can then paste the required images into the layout on the calendar page.

Tip: Select images that match the season. Or images that match certain events. (Example: A wedding photo for your anniversary month.)

### The Storyboard

(This is not used for year planners as they comprise a single page.)

All of the calendar pages, including the cover page, are displayed as thumbnails in the storyboard for navigation purposes and to give you a better overview.

The scroll boxes below the storyboard move the thumbnails right and left.
Clicking a thumbnail opens the corresponding page in the workspace.

You can change the page order by clicking the thumbnail for the page in question, holding down the left mouse button, and dragging the thumbnail to the required position in the storyboard. The month is updated in each case.

### The Calendar Object Toolbar

The object toolbar contains the most important tools or commands, which you can apply to an object selected in the product editor, or which let you insert a new object.

Pay attention to the tool tips.

In addition to the standard tools, they include layout object tools and other buttons that are displayed to reflect the object you have selected, and the object editing tools for e.g. rotating the object or formatting the text in text boxes.
(See the chapter "Object Toolbar".)

### The Calendar Editor

You can use the calendar editor workspace to design your calendar pages and the object browser to insert images. You can create your own layout with layout frames and texts and save it under a separate name. Alternatively, you can use a layout template.
(See the chapter "Working with Layouts".)
