There’s no better feeling than marking a task complete and seeing it disappear from view. To revel in that nice feeling some more, you can bring all completed tasks back into view and admire all you’ve accomplished. Or, in the unfortunate event, mark a task as incomplete again.
To view completed tasks:
When a cancelled event is back on, instead of creating a new event in your Vivaldi Calendar you can simply restore the one you deleted.
To restore an event:
“Trashed Events” in the top right corner of the calendar.To restore the most recently deleted event, right-click on any of the timeslots in the Calendar and select “Restore Event From Trash”.
You can set a time for the event by typing or using the date and time picker in the event editor. But a much cooler option is to click and drag to fill the timeslot in the calendar that the event is going to take up. When you release the mouse button, the event editor will open, allowing you to fill out the rest of the event’s details.
Give it a go!
Had a ton of fun with your friends recently and you’re planning to repeat the get-together? Awesome! When using the Vivaldi Calendar, it’s easy to duplicate events with all their details.
To make a copy of an event:
Option 1
Option 2
Ctrl/⌘ + C.Ctrl/⌘ + V.To get a general overview of your calendar at the same time as focusing in on a specific day, make use of Vivaldi Calendar‘s sidebar which displays the selected day’s events and tasks next to your current calendar view.
To toggle the sidebar in the Calendar on and off:
The day view sidebar is available in week, multiweek, month, and year views. In the agenda view, the sidebar will display your tasks.
When you’re trying to get an overview of what’s planned in a certain aspect of your life, hiding irrelevant events and tasks from view in the Vivaldi Calendar helps to focus on what’s important at the moment.
To toggle the visibility of calendars in the main calendar view:
To toggle the visibility of calendars in Calendar settings:
If you’re using Vivaldi Calendar to manage your events and tasks you may have noticed that past events and completed tasks have their colors a bit faded. This lets you easily see what’s done and what’s still ahead.
Past event fading is enabled by default, but you can review and update the setting to match your preference in Settings > Calendar > Calendar Display.
In Tip #39 we told you about Keyboard Shortcuts you can use in the Vivaldi Calendar to switch to specific views (Day, Week, Month, etc.). In this tip, we’re introducing you to alternative shortcuts, which allow you to cycle through the views using the same two shortcuts.
To cycle through calendar views, press:
Alt + Page ↑ – to zoom in, and Alt + Page ↓ – to zoom out.Step by step, you can zoom in from Agenda view down to Day view and from Day view out to Agenda view.
While viewing and editing your events and tasks in the Vivaldi Calendar you’ll probably need to check things in the past and future.
To do that, you can use the < and > buttons on either side of the “Today” button in the top left corner of the Calendar page or you can press the up and down arrow keys on your keyboard. But there’s a new and very convenient option available in the Vivaldi Calendar – using your mouse’s scroll wheel.
Scroll up to view previous time periods and scroll down to go to the upcoming ones. It works in all Calendar views from single-day view up to the year view.

Start Page with your Speed Dials isn’t the only option for your Homepage and New Tab Page. You can also set pages of your choice to open when you go to your homepage or open a new tab. It’s common to set a website as one of these pages, but you could also open Bookmarks, Notes, Calendar, and more.
To set an internal page as the Homepage/New Tab Page:
vivaldi://bookmarks, vivaldi://notes, vivaldi://calendar.When you have enabled Event Property Icons in Settings > Calendar > Calendar Display, you’ll see little icons next to the event title showing what kind of information the event includes.
If you’ve added a web link to the event, you can just click the icon to open it, instead of opening the event to view and open the URL. That’s especially useful when you’ve chosen the Minimal View in Vivaldi Calendar, where only the time and event title are displayed.
Making plans together with someone? Instead of creating separate events with the risk of getting out of sync when the specifics of the event change, one person should create a shared event.
To create a shared event in the Vivaldi Calendar:
When you edit shared events, you can send a new email invite to the participants or skip notifying them.
