Calendar

There are several types of calendars available, all of which can be personalised. You can choose the design of the calendar, add holidays and important dates, and select images to create a unique product.

Calendar configuration

When choosing a wall calendar or year calendar, you will first be asked to select one of the available design options. Simply click on your preferred design to select it.

Once selected, you can choose the size and surface material, as well as the type of calendar:

• Monthly calendar: Displays the days of the week according to the calendar year.
• Perpetual calendar: Has no reference to the day of the week or year and can be used at any time.

For Calendar and Desk Calendar types, you can select a calendar design on the configuration menu. The design, including its colours and styles, can be changed later. Once configured, click the Design now button.

Calendar Design modes

As with Photo Books, there are two design modes available for placing images on calendar pages:

• One Minute Calendar. Automatically and quickly designs your calendar. Pre-select images to be included, and the app will design and place them on the pages based on a selected design line and calendar parameters. The created calendar will open in the designer. You will be able to modify all the elements it contains, changing the layout and the design line, as well as adding and removing images, text and objects.
• Empty template. Allows you to design the calendar page by page from scratch.

Calendar Settings

After selecting a design mode, the Calendar settings will appear with different tabs for customising your calendar design and a preview of the calendar design.

Appearance

The Appearance tab gives you several options to customise the appearance of your calendar, as follows:
Start month: Select the starting month for your 12-month calendar. For example, selecting May 2025 means that the last month will be April 2026.
Start year: Select the calendar year which determines how the days are organised.
Calendar language: Select the language for your calendar.
Size: Adjust the size of the calendar and all its contents.
Week numbers: Activating this option will display the week numbers of the year.

Calendar design: Provides various colour palette templates for selection.
Text Colours: Select specific text colours for Sundays, Holidays, Own events, Month and year, and Default text. Clicking on any of these boxes opens the colour menu for you to select the desired colour.Fonts: Provides boxes to select specific fonts for the calendar, holidays and month.
Calendar background: Let you select a background colour for the calendar and adjust its opacity.

Holidays

Within the Holidays tab, you can select the public holidays for a specific location and add your own custom holidays.
Show holidays and own events: Check this box to display holidays and personal events. Unchecking will hide them.
Country: Select the country to include relevant holidays.
Region: Display the available regions for the selected country. Public holidays for the chosen location will be automatically added to your calendar.

In addition to holidays, you can add your own events by selecting the Add new button. Enter the date and name of the event and click Add. To remove or edit an event, click on the three dots menu next to the event and select Delete or Edit as required.
Once the calendar settings are configured, click the OK green button at the bottom. You can edit the calendar settings later if needed.

Calendar in the App designer

Wall Calendars and Desk Calendars are structured with a cover page followed by one page per month. Depending on the design mode chosen, images may already be placed on the calendar. You can modify these images and other elements at any time, add Images, Cliparts, Text, Fill boxes, QR codes and Backgrounds and configure them according to your design needs.

The calendar itself can also be modified from here. Select a month and click the Calendar button at the bottom will bring up the Calendar settings. Note that the Calendar button is visible on the month pages and will not be visible on the Cover page as there is no calendar there.

From here you can add holidays and configure the appearance of the calendar. The changes you make will apply to the page/month open in the designer.

Family Calendar

The Family Calendar provides individual columns for each family member, allowing them to add their own dates and events. The layout adapts to the number of family members you add.

In the calendar configuration window, you’ll find the Family members tab alongside the Appearance and Holidays tabs. To add a family member, click the Add new button. A menu will appear where you can enter the person’s name. Click Add to include their column in the calendar. To change or delete a family member, click the three dots next to their name.

When adding holidays to the family calendar, you can assign them to a specific family member. From the Holidays tab, click the Add new button. A menu will display where you can select the date, enter the event name, and choose the appropriate family member. Click Add to add the holiday to the calendar.
