yCal is designed to give you the best possible overview on a full year.
As such, it offers a unique month-by-column year view which can be
accessed from the 1, or by clicking the
button
in the horizontal divider bar.
The year view is primarily meant to give an overview on "marked" days (read here on how to use markers), so by default it will not show individual events. You can, however, double click a single day to get a quickview panel showing the details of that day, or you may choose to show a "heatmap" of your events via selecting from this view's context menu.
Read here on all the things you can do with the year view.
In addition, there is a more conventional week view which
can be accessed from the 2, or by clicking the
button
in the horizontal divider bar.
Read here on all the things you can do with the week view.
If window height permits, you can also view both the year view and
the week view at the same time by dragging the divider bar up and down.
Use the little handle left to
and
to drag
the divider bar.
