I have seen some posts on the positives and negatives of Method's calendar system. I see hints of "default calendars" such as Call Center or Professional services, etc. These sound like resource calendars. How do you get them to show on the activity calendar page? I have tried some of the suggestions in general of testing with ...

I already use the second resource for 'Grouping', this way I just see a sub set of my employees - just electricians, managers, office staff, etc.  However, I never want to see Inactive/Ex-Employees, so I need a way to filter these people out.

Mary, You should be fine to install it.  We haven't had anything reported about the plugin and Windows 8.   - Adam
