Start with your classes
Before configuring your schedule you should create your classes, even if empty
Full-size and legacy compact modes
This guide uses full-size mode, with a planner, timeline, holidays and week/day cycles.
Earlier versions of iDoceo also offered compact mode for simpler schedules. Compact mode was deprecated in iDoceo 6. The compact schedule instructions and working-mode comparison remain available as legacy references.
In versions that offered the setting, you could change modes in Main menu > Settings > Working mode. Stay in full-size mode once you switch.
Link the schedule, planner and calendar
The schedule, planner and diary are linked by a calendar. This calendar should reflect your weekly configuration, day cycles, holidays and schedule changes during your school's term.
You should first configure the initial sequence of week(s) or days in your cycle from the schedule view. You will then be able to replicate that sequence with a tap on Copy on the right corner of your schedule. More details (explained here)
Main gestures
- Pinch to zoom in and out
- Tap and hold for options on a given time frame
- Tap on a time block to open a class' gradebook
Tap on an empty time block to add a new one
Configuring the timelines
The timelines in the schedule are reference guides for arranging time blocks. Classes do not have to match these times exactly.
From Schedule screen Options > Time lines
Additionally, you may apply a colour to certain periods. In our example, the time frame between 11:00 and 11:10 will be painted red and from 13:00 to 13:10 in green
Add classes
Tap on the day of the week and in an empty slot to add that class to.
If you've got the same class repeated at the same times in a different week day, tap and hold on it and then copy.
If a time block does not correspond to a class, simply type its text in the Title, left below image.
