ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for quickly arranging task schedule information in a calendar view format using internal caches and configurable, moveable task bars. The internal caches dramatically improve display, layout and access time to task information. The configurable, moveable task bars are displayed left-to-right across dayboxes in the calendar view format. A user can change and configure task schedule information displayed in a task bar, as well as change task bar display attributes. The configurable task bars can also be moved from one daybox to another by the user. When a task bar is configured or moved by a user, the task bar as well as remaining task bars are automatically re-scaled to fit within the vertical space of a daybox.
