Analytics (charting) is now available on all scheduling views in DayBack for FileMaker. Here are some screenshots of the same data, first in the multi-day scheduling view and then in horizon view. Both views have their advantages: horizon view is easier to read, but the scheduling view is great if you need to see what times are open. So now you can use analytics on both views. In...

Here’s a simple mod to show unscheduled (dateless) events in DayBack Calendar. This is great for events that haven’t yet been pinned down.
