Calendar
Day, week, month, and year views over events and date-bound tasks.
Views
Switch between Day, Week, Month, and Year from the calendar toolbar.
| View | Best for |
|---|---|
| Day | Hour-by-hour detail; appointments back-to-back |
| Week | Default; one screen of context |
| Month | Bird's-eye plan |
| Year | Capacity / planning view |
The current view persists per tab.
Day and week views show a current-time marker on today's grid; event chips remain the clickable target for opening or editing events.
What Shows Up
| Source | How it appears |
|---|---|
| Calendar events created in memrynote | Inline events on the day grid |
| Tasks with due dates | Task chips on the day they're due |
| External calendar events (if integrated) | Translucent events with a source badge |
| Journal entries | A small badge / dot on dates with entries |
| Notes with a calendar-enabled date property | All-day note chips on the property's date |
Search
Click the search icon in the toolbar to reveal a search box. Type to filter everything the calendar shows — events, tasks, reminders, notes, and snoozed inbox items — by title or description, regardless of which date you're currently viewing. Matches appear in a dropdown, sorted by how close they are to today. Selecting a result jumps the calendar to that item's day and opens its detail popover. Press Enter to jump to the top match or Escape to close.
Quick Create
Click an empty time slot (day / week views) or a date cell (month) to create an event inline. The popover lets you set:
- Title
- Start and end times
- All-day toggle
- Notes / description
- Recurrence (one-off, daily, weekly, monthly)
Event Detail Popover
Click an event to open the popover. Edit title, time, and description in place. The popover has a "Open in tab" action for full editing.
Notes with Dates
A note that has a date-typed property can appear on the calendar. Turn on Show on calendar from that property's row in the note, and the note shows up as an all-day chip on the property's date. Clicking the chip opens a small read-only popover showing the property and date, with an Open note action.
The toggle is vault-wide per property name — enabling it for "Deadline" once surfaces every note's "Deadline" — and it syncs across your devices. A note with several calendar-enabled date properties shows one chip per date.
Drag to Reschedule
On the day and week timelines, drag an event to reschedule it:
- Drag vertically to change the time.
- In week view, drag across columns to move it to another day.
- Drag the top or bottom edge to change the start or end time (resize).
Times snap to 15-minute steps. Only events are draggable — task, reminder, and note chips stay put. If the event is linked to a connected Google calendar, the new time syncs there too.
Press Cmd/Ctrl+Z to undo a move or resize.
External Calendar Integration
If a Google Calendar account is linked in Settings → Integrations, external events appear alongside your vault events with a source badge.
External events are read-mostly: titles and times sync in. Inline edits propagate back if the integration supports it.
Sync Direction
By default Google Calendar sync is two-way: events, tasks, reminders, and snoozes you create in memrynote are pushed up to Google, and changes made in Google flow back into memrynote.
To switch to one-way (inbound only), open Settings → Integrations and turn off Show memrynote events in Google Calendar. You'll still see your Google events inside memrynote, but memrynote events will no longer appear in Google.
Switching to one-way is non-destructive — anything already synced to Google before the change stays there; only new pushes, updates, and deletes are stopped.
Promote External Events
Right-click an external event → Promote to vault to copy it into your encrypted vault. Useful when you want to attach notes, tags, or reminders that wouldn't survive on the source calendar.
Day Cell Click Behavior
Settings → Calendar lets you choose what clicking a date does by default:
- Open the day's journal entry
- Open the calendar's day view
Per-page override is available so the calendar tab itself can behave differently from clicks elsewhere.
