# Using Categories

Another way to group contacts, appointments, tasks and memos (summarized by the term "objects" in the following text) is to mark them as belonging to different categories. You can mark an object as being in several categories or no category at all. For example in your address book, you put a friend in the "Business" category because he works with you and the "Friends" category because he is a friend.

To display only the objects in a particular category, select the corresponding category in the quick search bar.

# Configurar categorías para un obxecto

Para marcar un obxecto como pertencente a unha categoría.

Prema dúas veces no obxecto para mostrar o editor correspondente.

Click Categories…. (If this button is not available, select ViewCategories.)

Seleccione a categoría desde a lista. Pode seleccionar cantas categorías queira.

# Engadir e xestionar categorías

If the default list of categories does not suit your needs, you can add your own categories either directly via EditAvailable Categories, or indirectly when editing an object:

Double-click any object to bring up the corresponding editor.

Click Categories…. (If this button is not available, select ViewCategories.)

Escriba a nova categoría na caixa de entrada de arriba.

Prema Aceptar.

Agora poderá ver a categoría desde o campo de texto Categorías no editor.

Prema Aceptar.

In the Categories Editor you can edit or set the color and icon for each category available by clicking Edit at the bottom of the Categories window. Press Delete to delete categories from the list.
