I am very new to Lightening 1.1 on TB 9.01 in W7 64 bit and have a few
questions:

1. The calendar opens in its own tab, but there is not tab title. I
believe when I first installed it the title "Calendar" was visible. It
no longer is.

2. Because I do not use TB maximized and window width is a problem, I
would like to alter the default layout of lightening. For instance:

the month's calendar at the top of the left pane is nice, but I do not
really need to see the list of various calendars open. That space is
wasted space and could be better used by having the "today's pane"
(presently located on the right) placed in the left pane under the month
calendar, replacing the relatively useless list of calendars.

Is this possible?

Thanks, Jeff

Never experienced that - mine still has a title.

Not exactly, but you can hide the mini-month and the calendar list. Open
the calendar tab, then View -> Calendar -> disable both. You'll notice
that the now blank column doesn't disappear automatically. You have to
drag the left boundary of the month calendar all the way to the left of
the TB window.
If you enable the mini-month again the column doesn't become visible
again automatically, you need to drag the "separator" back to the right.

HTH,

Yes. While they are not obvious it you move the mouse over the edge of
the window you want to change it will flip to a double ended arrow. Hold
the left mouse button down and move the window edge to where you want it
or to close it.

There are controls for the windows in View to also change the windows in
Lightning. (no "e" like a bolt of, not what you use a lamp for.)

It is possible to have mini-month shown on today pane. While displaying
mini-day there is the default you can choose View -> Today Pane -> Show
Mini-Month as well.

I can't show the Mini-Month pane anymore for some reason. When I choose View/Today Pane everything is grayed out except the top choice (Show Today Pane). Anyone have ideas on how to get the mini-month view back?

Tks,
Eric
