A typical date dialog
Every date dialog in TimeCache offers a handful of tools to make it
easy to work with date entry.
For example, here's the dialog that prompts you for a new date in
the Daily Log:
In addition to the text field where you enter the date, and the
standard OK and Cancel buttons, there are four additional buttons
that can help you change the date quickly.
The + and —
buttons increment and decrement the date in the text field by one
day at a time. There is a keyboard shortcut for each button: ⌘-+ to
increment the date, and ⌘-— to decrement the date.
The Calendar button displays a calendar that allows you to choose any
date to enter into the date dialog's text field. You can also set
up TimeCache to use the calendar for date
entry by default.
TimeCache's report and invoice setup dialogs all offer another tool
for quickly entering dates. The QuickDates button lets you instantly enter a
beginning and ending date from a menu of common date choices.
You will find the buttons described above in every date dialog in
TimeCache. Note that in report and invoice setup dialogs, the +, —
and Calendar buttons are enabled only when the cursor is in a date
field, and invoking one of them affects that field. The QuickDates
field is always enabled and enters the starting and ending dates in
the appropriate fields.
The Daily Log date dialog also offers a Today button that sets the date in the text field
to the current day's date. The keyboard shortcut for this button is
Option-⌘-T, which also accepts the date entry.
