| Calendar culture | User Settings |
Use this setting to control when a calendar begins counting a week. For example, the first Monday of 2010 was 4 January. In ISO8601 standard, that means the first week of 2010 begins on 4 January. (ISO8601 standard requires weeks to begin on Monday.) In en-US, the first week of the year begins on 1 January regardless of the day of the week on which it falls. Options are: "UserSettings" (Default): Uses the setting the user has selected on the client. (For example, User Setting=LSO Language) "ISO8601": Uses ISO8601 settings. If this option is selected, it overrides User Settings. |

There are six background styles for each selectable color. To navigate through the available backgrounds, click on the left, right, top and bottom sides of the box. An arrow will appear and the view will move in the direction of the arrow when clicked.
