Dealing with Collisions

Often you may not discover that you have a collision in your calendar until you select Print Preview and review it. When you do see a collision, text and clipart may be overprinted so that you can't even tell which events are involved in the collision. To find out what events are colliding, select Tools → Sort by Date and List Collisions from the menu bar.

Here are some things you can do to resolve a collision.

  • Decide not to include one of the colliding events in your printed calendar. Click the check box next to the event name to exclude it.
  • Edit the text of an event to make it shorter, or even remove it.
  • Mark the clip art of and event as Not Visible. (The clip art will remain associated with the event.)

After editing, be sure to use Print Preview again to be sure that the result is satisfactory.
