hmCal is a new plug-in developed by heubach media, Hamburg, Germany for 4th Dimension.
hmCal puts simply and fast a complete calendar functionality to your 4th Dimension application. It is always guaranteed that functionality between Macintosh and Windows is identical.
The advantage of hmCal is that it can be integrated extremely simply into existing solutions. A further advantage is, hmCal has NO direct access on your data. So appointments, virtual appointments (it does not have to exist a data record), repeated appointments etc. in complex situations (rights of access, on-the-fly-creation) can be represented and manipulated.
Features:
6 views: daily view, user daily views (team calendar functionality), multi day view, user weekly view (resource managemant), project view and month view
Multi-day appointments
Recurrence appointments
Import and export as iCalendar format
Support of columns
Complete adaptability of the calendar by programming language
Stylesheets for each calendar-object
Shifting and extending dates by the user, drag & drop in all views
User actions/events can be administered by programming language (callback method)
Drag & drop of other form objects into the calendar
You can display appointments in complex situations (rights of access).
Customizable colors, icons and tooltips
Identical function range under Macintosh and Windows
hmCal ist available as a universal binary bundle for Macintosh and Windows. It was developed and tested with 4D version 2004.7 and 4D v11.3 SQL.
hmCal 2.0 Special NEW features
Support of recurrence appointments: Now you can apply easily very complex
repeating rules for appointments. These rules are automatically displayed in
hmCal and can modified by the user.
Support of the iCalendar Standard: With hmCal 2.0 you can get/push very
easily calendar data from/to iCal, Outlook 2007 and others. Now it's
possible to show appointments from other calendar systems directly (without
caching any data) into your 4D application. For example: Subscribe your
Google Calendar easily in your 4D application - with only one command!
Export and import of iCalendar documents, including support of recurrence
appointments.
New project/gantt view: With this view you can plan your resources or
appointments. You can display appointment hierarchichally. HmCal supports
milestones and relations.
Support of columns: The user/resource view and the new project view
supporting columns. Now you can display more information to an
appointment/user/resource!
Goodbye Quickdraw: hmCal 2.0 was completely rewritten for Macintosh into
Quartz 2D. This new technology brings new possibilities, for example:
gradients and shadows.

icons to appointments. HmCal now supports native picture formats. So you can use the format "png" to use the alpha layer and to display transparency.
