The iCal adapter can visualize your daily work in realtime. Use the predefined settings or customize the output that it fits your special needs. To make your work transparent, calendars can be shared within iCal and subscribed from others.

Changing the adapter settings:

Status: Activate the adapter to visualize your work-times in iCal. To allow work-time editing in Minco, this adapter must be always activated.

Calendar: Name the calendar Minco will use to write your work-time events. To use the calendar of the task, open the token panel and drag the calendar token from the task parameter group in the calendar field. If you specify the name of a shared calendar, work-times will automatically shared with others.

Minco will create a new calendar if a calendar is not existing in iCal. If the associated calendar is deleted in iCal, Minco will not recreate the calendar. In this case, you will have to edit the calendar field in Minco to associate a new calendar.

Title: Use the title of the task to name work-time events in iCal. You can extend the title with other information you would like to see in the event title.

Notes: Specify additional information you would like to see in the notes of the work-time event. Open the token panel and drag additional token to the notes field.

Location: You can define a location for the work-time event in iCal.

URL: The content of this field is exposed in the URL file of the iCal event.

Update: Specify if Minco will recognize work-time changes in iCal. To edit work-times in Minco, this setting should be activated.

Work-time changes are only recognized for uncompleted tasks. If you want to edit work-times of a completed task, first change the completed status of the task to uncompleted before you make any edit.
