Default Calendar - Detail option


Milly, understood, thanks! DH

If you have a very full calendar and only need to see the basics, like when
you have that meeting with your manager, the lower or medium views are of
value for seeing what you have on your plate. For instance, I only need to
know that I have a meeting (weekly) every Tuesday at 9:30 AM - I know what
it is, a weekly unit meeting to catch up with my team.

However, I may have another meeting at 1 PM with my Div Chief where I need
to see the details (where, what the topic is) so I turn on high details.
This way, the calendar works for me, not the other way around.

After furious head scratching, Dave Horne asked:
