can see what a menu will look like when printed, and you can choose from vari-
ous available styles.
The order of the courses in a menu is determined by the order of the recipes in
the meal, and their courses. So recipes for an appetizer course should come
first in the meal, and should have their course set to “Appetizer” in MacGourmet
Deluxe. When making menus, it’s important that recipes have their courses set
appropriately.
Sending your Mealplan to Calendar
Mealplan doesn’t include a monthly calendar view, because it’s based around
the concept of a weekly planner, a month-based view of Mealplan data can be
viewed in iCal by sending the planner data to iCal.
Using Mealplan with iCal
Mealplan > Send Planner to calendar
to send the planner data to iCal. The rest will be taken care of automatically: a
new calendar named “Mealplan” will be created, and it will be populated with
your planner data.
L TIP: Sending your planner to iCal is a one way opera-
tion. Each time you send the planner to iCal, the data in
iCal gets replaced, so any changes made to your
Mealplan calendar in iCal will be lost.
It a good idea to have appropriate times for meals set, and for all recipes to be
in meals when planner data is sent to iCal. When a planner is synced, meals that
have times will be placed at those times in your calendar. Recipes that aren’t in
meals will be placed at noon.
