Help in using Calendar Filters

[DerekTheGeek]

Hi All,

 I have really tried searching through all existing posts so please forgive me if these questions has been posted previously and answered.

(1) I am trying to modify the various POOM filters used when displaying agenda related data. Is there a limit to the number of filters that can be created?

(2) Is there any tutorials or perhaps someone has some examples on how to change the display of various POOM filters? For example instead of displaying a countdown filter perhaps I could display another "agenda" filter that filters on a different category. I have been reading the skin reference but it is hard to figure out without many examples. Anyone care to give a brief overview?

 Also wanted to thank everyone here for taking time to help out others and to post their work. Special thanks to "srs" for offering this software to others. It is a great product and even if you charged for it, I would buy it.

- Derek

Did you find any help with this?  I am also interested in changing the filters.

1) nope.  but there are only 4 cache slots so if you want to use more than 4 filters, you will have to clear / reuse some slots.

2) I've been meaning to write a tutorial, but haven't had much time, but here are some msdn reference pages that might be useful:

the properties for appointments (you can filter on almost all of these): http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/wcepoom/html/cerefiappointmentiunknown.asp

the properties for tasks:

srs, It seems you posted the same link twice. Is there a different 1?

The information is there. Just scroll down to the section that reads "ITAsk"

Indeed.  The link for tasks is:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/wcepoom/html/cerefitaskpropertymethods.asp

And for those, like me, whose head is a little slow this morning, you need to be looking at the Properties of the interfaces, for which there is a link on the linked page above, or is accessible through the left-hand pane as ITask Properties.

That will teach me to pay closer attention.
