All,
There are some screen shots of an early build of the calendar month view in SheetPlanner 1.0.

Nice, Peter.

I noticed the “year view coming soon” note. For this kind of software I think I would not get as much out of a year view as I would out of a rolling 90-120-180 day view. Or even the option to “show the next xxx days”, with an upper boundary on how may days to show. I’m working on, or planning, the things to come today or over 14-30-90-180 day planning horizons. So calendar-based month / quarter / year boundaries are not important and in fact get in the way a lot.

Just a thought.

Paul,
I think you will get the functionality you are looking for from the Timeline.

Once this gets released I will compile feedback and use it in the design of future features.

Thanks,
Peter

kinda often, along these lines, I often wonder why there aren’t choices for ‘financial-year’ or academic year options.
As someone whose work is seaonal, I’d love a mid winter centric point of view. but as Paul says a 180 rolling view would surely suffice!

Back in the MSDOS world of the mid-80s, I used a minimalist spreadsheet that could be run as a pop-up app in the background. I don’t remember the name of it, but I found it to be very useful at the time. I have sort of tried Curio tables in that way, but it just seems to awkward. Anything that Sheetplanner will give me that resembles Ecco Pro or that early spreadsheet paradigm will be useful to me.
