NJStar Chinese Calendar

NJStar Chinese Calendar is a lightweight Windows application whose purpose is to help you access a calendar, which displays the date using the Chinese lunar year, set up alarms, as well as work with a word clock.

The tool reveals a multi-tabbed layout which makes it easier for you to switch between the calendar, alarm, and world clock display. A help manual is not included in the package so you need to experiment with the built-in features in order to get an idea about how it works.

NJStar Chinese Calendar gives you the possibility to view a single month displayed in the Chinese calendar, go to the previous or next year (you may also manually input the target year), jump to a specific month from the calendar, as well as work with a lunar convertor.

What’s more, you are allowed access the current date in the calendar and adjust the background color. Printing options are available for a specific month or year, and you may use the default picture or upload a custom one from your computer (JPEG, BMP, GIF), and center the image.

You can set up alarms for various types of events (e.g. Memo, Anniversary, Appointment, Holiday), activate the alarm 30 minutes, 2 hours, 2 days, or 2 tweaks (or another preset time interval) before the event, as well as repeat the alarm each month or year.

You can provide information about the name of the alarm, write a custom message, and play sound notifications, send an email, or run a custom program when an alarm goes on.

Other important features worth being mentioned enable you to search for 24-hour time zone differences, telephone codes, and flight distance between any cities around the world, as well as check out details about the date and time for different locations from all over the world with the aid of a clickable map.

NJStar Chinese Calendar comes packed with several handy features for helping you manage your time efficiently. On the downside, the GUI looks a bit outdated and crowded so it needs a facelift in order to make the entire process more intuitive.
