Extension summary

Google Calendar lacks continuous scrolling for month view, making it difficult to work with events that cross between months. This extension aims to address this difficulty by allowing users to increment their view a week at a time in a multi-week view.

Press Ctrl+Down or Ctrl+Up to move 'down' or 'up' one week respectively. (Command+Down or Command+Up on macOS)

For this extension to work properly, you must set your Google Calendar's custom view to 2, 3, or 4 weeks (4 recommended).

This app works by modifying the URL of your tab. As such, the page is refreshed every time you increment by a week. Be aware that this means any unsaved changes to an event will be lost when you increment your view.

Works like a champ. If you're in the habit of getting a days work done, and sliding forward the unfinished work into future days on the calendar: This is the extension that makes it possible to cross the month boundary without having to open and edit each item you want to shift. It's just CTRL+DOWN, and then drag and drop. Thanks!

This works!! I'm wondering why Google isn't fixing such a simple limitation that is annoying so many users?
