On my work laptop (windows), Outlook has the ability to show 1-10 days at a time by typing Alt & the corresponding number key (Alt-9 for 9 days, etc).

It doesn't look like this same functionality lists in the Mac version of Outlook (Office Home & Business 2021) or in the default Mac Calendar app.

Is anyone aware of a key combo (or other work-around, short of switching to another program) that allows the same calendar view.

Thanks in advance,
 
This used to be changeable in the Calendar app using a "defaults write" Terminal command but it doesn't work anymore…nor would it be as convenient as a key command if it did.

If I open my user com.apple.iCal.plist file with Xcode I can see the entry for "n days of week" but changing it has no effect.

Thanks for taking a look
 
I'm finding BusyCal very solid Calendar replacement. It'll go up to 14 days across in week view, and 12 weeks in month view.

Thanks. I'm trying to avoid third party apps, but I may have to consider that one. Thanks for letting me know that it works.
