Configuration Settings

Desktop Toolbar Buttons​

Customize which buttons appear in the calendar's top toolbar on desktop. All buttons are enabled by default. Uncheck items to hide them and save space in narrow sidebars. Reopen the calendar view for changes to take effect.

Available buttons: Previous/Next, Today, Now, Create Event, Zoom Level, Filter Presets, Search Input, Expression Filter, Untracked Events, Timeline.

For a detailed description of each toolbar button and what it does, see Calendar View → Toolbar.

Mobile Toolbar Buttons​

Customize which buttons appear in the calendar's top toolbar on mobile. Configured independently from desktop. All buttons are enabled by default. Uncheck items to hide them and save space on smaller screens. Reopen the calendar view for changes to take effect.

Available buttons are the same as desktop: Previous/Next, Today, Now, Create Event, Zoom Level, Filter Presets, Search Input, Expression Filter, Untracked Events, Timeline.

    Not all buttons are enabled by default — Move By, Open All, Move Prev, Clone Prev, and Frontmatter are disabled by default. The Counter (showing selection count) and Exit buttons are always shown and cannot be disabled.

Context Menu​

  • Context menu items: customize which actions appear when right-clicking events. You can enable or disable individual context menu items to declutter the menu and keep only relevant actions:

    • Enlarge: Open event preview in a modal
    • Preview: Show hover preview for the event
    • Go to source: Navigate to the source recurring event
    • Edit source event: Open edit modal with source recurring event data (only appears on physical/virtual recurring instances)
    • Duplicate recurring instance: Create a duplicate of a physical recurring instance
    • View event groups: Open modal showing all event groups (recurring, by category, by name)
    • Edit event: Open event edit modal
    • Assign categories: Open category assignment modal
    • Duplicate event: Create a duplicate of the event
    • Move by...: Move event by a custom time offset

    • Fill start time from current time: Set event start to now
    • Fill end time from current time: Set event end to now
    • Fill start time from previous event: Set start to previous event's end time
    • Fill end time from next event: Set end to next event's start time
    • Delete event: Delete the event note
    • Skip event: Hide event from calendar
    • Open file: Open event note in editor
    • Open file in new window: Open event note in a new window
    • Enable/Disable recurring event: Toggle recurring event visibility
    • Trigger stopwatch: Start or stop the time tracker for the event
    • Duplicate remaining week days: Duplicate event to all remaining days of the current week (disabled by default)

    All items are enabled by default unless noted otherwise. Menu items that don't apply to a specific event (e.g., recurring-specific actions on non-recurring events) are automatically hidden.

Performance​

  • Enable name series tracking: track name-based event series (groups events sharing the same title). Used for name series propagation and series views. Disable to reduce memory usage in large vaults (enabled by default).
  • File operation concurrency limit: maximum number of files to modify in parallel during batch operations. Applies to recurring event frontmatter propagation, name/category series propagation, and file deletions (e.g., when deleting a CalDAV account or ICS subscription with many events). Lower values reduce the risk of Obsidian freezing on large batch operations; higher values complete faster. Range: 1–50, default: 10.
