Important information about the number of events shown overall
Overall, each calendar will display 12 months of events from the current date.
However, there are many ways to limit this.
(1) If Infinite scroll is toggled off and nothing else is toggled on, the scrolling will stop at the end of the month. In other words, if you are in October, no November events will be displayed. If this option is toggled on, DCE will display a continuous looping of all your events for the next 12 months from the current date.
(2) If you toggle on Infinite scroll and also toggle on Merge recurring events, you will not see the next occurrences of events which are already displayed in your calendar view. You would need to toggle off the Merge recurring events option to show occurrences which happen in future months.
(3) You can choose Show [#] upcoming events. So, for example, Show 6 upcoming events will show only 6 future events.
(4) Choosing Show current week events only will show only the events happening that week.
