This is the name that is shown to end users, in the Views drop-down on the top left side of the Calendar Display. It is also the name that you see when you are on the Views page, and at the top of all other Display Wizard pages.
NOTE: View names support the use of the following
special characters:
:{}[]\|=+asdf!@#$%^&**())_'";;
The view description is optional, but can be helpful to your users. When a user hovers over a view name in the Views drop-down on the Calendar Display's toolbar, the description you provide here is displayed in a pop-up. If no description is provided on this page, the pop-up will not be displayed.
There are two available view types for a Calendar Display:
• Standard View – A basic Calendar Display that contains SharePoint data.
• Advanced View (XML Based) – A Calendar Display that contains data fed from an Advanced component.
The most common type of view is the Standard View, so that is what is discussed first. Click here for details on creating an Advanced View.
