Agenda week view

Agenda week view

[Renzo Been]

Hi there,

I've got a question about the weekly agenda view.

Is there a setting that can change the agenda view to start the week
on the current date, instead of on Mondays? So that the agenda would
show 7 days, starting from the current date.

Can this be done for the default agenda view, or do I need to make a
custom agenda view for it?

Ciao,
Renzo

Thanx Tassilo, 

That was just what I needed...

P.S. How did you produce that border around the text in the email you've send? 
It looks pretty good...
