Overview
Marvin's calendar has several views so you can zoom in on today or look further ahead: Day, a 5 or 7 day Week, a Rolling view, and Month. You can switch between them with one click or a keyboard shortcut. For setting up the calendar itself, see Calendar.

The views
Use the icons at the top left of the calendar:
Day: one day with the hours of the day.
Work Week and Week: 5 days or all 7 days.
Month: the whole month.
Rolling: a set number of days starting from today. The arrows move it forward or back one day at a time, so today doesn't drop off just because the week ended.
Setting up the Rolling view
Click the Rolling icon once to switch to it. Click it again to open its options:
Choose how many days to show, from 2 to 21. Use − and +, or pick 3, 5, 7, 10 or 14.
Turn on Skip weekends to leave weekend days out of the view.
Marvin remembers your choice.

Keyboard shortcuts
These work while the calendar is open (web and desktop):
Shift+D: Day view
Shift+W: Week view. Press again to switch between 5 and 7 days.
Shift+R: Rolling view. Press again to change the number of days.
Shift+M: Month view
Left / Right arrow: go back or forward (a day, a week, or a month, depending on the view)
Shift+Left / Shift+Right: jump further (a week in Day view, a month in Week view, a year in Month view, or a full set of days in Rolling view)
Ctrl+Down (Cmd+Down on Mac): go to today
1: zoom out (smaller hours)
2: zoom in (taller hours)
C: open or close the controls sidebar
X: open or close the Master List sidebar
T: open or close time totals (when Time Blocking is on)
Zooming works in the Day, Week and Rolling views.
Untimed tasks
Tasks and projects scheduled for a day but without a time show at the top of the Day, Week and Rolling views as all-day items. To hide or show them, press C to open the controls sidebar and, under Show on calendar, switch Untimed tasks off or on. It's on by default.
In the Week and Rolling views you can also turn on Due tasks/projects there to see items that are due.
Tip: If you plan a few days at a time, try a 3 or 5 day Rolling view with Skip weekends on.
