Date Indication, Calendar, Previous and Next Month Buttons

Today's date is indicated on the main menu, but you can change the month of the calendar displayed by clicking the previous and next month buttons (the buttons with right and left triangle arrows).

Hint

Clicking the today's date indicator quickly returns the calendar display to the one for the current month.

You can send playlists and the necessary materials simply by selecting a day on the calendar and a destination group from the drop-down list box, then clicking the Send button, provided the materials and playlists are ready.

The colors used for the calendar express the following meanings.

Note that the colors will not be displayed correctly if you sent the video, graphics and text materials from the Material Management window. You need to send the playlists from this window, the Material Management or Edit Playlist window.
