- [Instructor] By default when you're looking at any view
other than month, Outlook breaks each hour in half,
two 30 minute segments.
For example, here we have 10 to 10:30, and then 10:30 to 11.
If you often find yourself creating appointments
that start at 15 minutes after
or 15 minutes before the hour,
or that last for 45 or 50 minutes,
then you can change the timescale here.
Simply point to the timescale on the left side of week,
work week or day view, any of them,
and right click and choose timescale.
And note that you can have one-hour slices, 30 minutes,
which is the default, or the 15 minutes
that we spoke of a moment ago.
When I choose 15 minutes, then every hour in my day
is set in 15-minute blocks,
and the benefit of this is that I can then easily drag out
three blocks to have a 45 minute meeting.
