Two thirdsTwo columns. Scroll for the third.
Half screenOne column, with arrows and dots.
Example: a minimum column width of 380 px, a fifth of a 1920 px screen.

Minimum column width decides when a column drops. By default it is a fifth of your screen's width. Drag the slider for your own width, from 200 to 800 px, and press Match screen to go back.

The brackets under the slider show how many columns a full-screen window fits. Arrows and dots in the period header move one column at a time.

Show the week strip or fold empty hours

Four switches under Display change what the schedule draws.

The week strip shows seven days, Monday first. Pick a day to open it, then drag a task into that day. The calendar button at the left of the schedule header turns the strip on and off.

Fold empty hours works in the one-day list. Two or more free hours in a row fold into one thin row, and they open while you drag.

The button shows the view a press goes to. In the compact window it turns back into Default view.
