.ics file | The file format Chandler uses to import and export calendars to other applications. (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICalendar iCalendar is a standard (RFC 2445) for calendar data exchange. The standard is sometimes referred to as "iCal", which also is the name of the Apple, Inc. calendar program (see iCal) that provides one of the implementations of the standard. iCalendar allows to-dos and events to be sent via e-mail. Recipients of the iCalendar email (with supported software) can respond to the sender easily or counter propose another meeting date/time. See GSG Ch 3: Importing-Exporting Data | """" |

Addressing, Message, | Chandler messages are different from email messages. They can be edited and resent as updates! The underlying technology used for sending and receiving Chandler messages is email. However, Chandler-specific metadata is preserved separate from the email wrapper used to transport the Chandler message around. Examples of Chandler-specific metadata include: Item type - Is the note an event? Event meta-data - Start/End times, time zone, etc. Unlike email, who a message is 'From' does not always match the 'Sender' of Chandler messages. This allows you to send messages on behalf of others as well edit and update messages without changing who the message was originally 'From'. | """" """" """" |

All Day Event | All Day is meant for events that will be occupying lots of your time that day. One All Day event makes a full blue mark for that day in the minicalendar. It's rendered with a dark background in the calendar's allday canvas. | """" |
Anytime Event | Any Time is meant for events that don't have a specific time or duration. They don't take up any time on your calendar (so no little blue mark in the minicalendar for anytime events). It's rendered with a light background in the calendar's allday canvas. The default when double clicking in the allday canvas is now to create an Any Time Event, not an allday event | """" |
