Allow to scroll the calendar (month view) using the mouse wheel
Like in Outlook for PC or Apple Calendar it is possible to gradually scroll through time by just using the mouse-scroll-wheel.
On the Outlook Mac version you can only jump back and forth month by month and only via the buttons in the upper left corner.

Zooming in and out – showing as many weeks as I want in the window would be great too.

This would be so helpful! I just switched from the desktop Outlook and I didn't realize how much I used this feature until it was gone.

My university is forcing me to use the Outlook calendar through 365 and I HATE that I can only change months by clicking an arrow. Thankfully, this is my last year and I can say buh bye forever to Outlook!

Please allow it. It makes Busycal way too much attractive.

Please allow the scroll option to the calendar on Mac. I have no need for previous weeks. When I need to print the calendar it waste paper and toner because I have to print more pages than needed

Yes, please. There is no point to me seeing the previous three weeks that have past by default when i view my calendar.

This is going on 5 years! Can't believe it's not in yet! It shouldn't take more than 5min to implement this feature.

Please implement scrolling calendar for Outlook for Mac.
It is really annoying that this is not possible -

I was hoping the last update would have added this. It has not. It's been under review since 2015. It's absolutely absurd this hasn't been addressed. I use Fantastical for my calendar for this single feature. It is, honestly, the only reason I keep using it. Outlook should add this feature to the Mac version. It's almost like it's hobbled on purpose. No programmer in the world, if forced to use the Outlook for Mac calendar, would be satisfied with the inability to scroll in month view. Please fix ASAP.

Under review since 2015, and no explanation or implementation yet?
And this is not the only trheat on this particular question!If Outlook wants to serve it's clients at the fullest, and augment their productivity and User experience, this tool is a minimum for all those using a calendar.
This option is available on Outlook PC, Ical, Mac Calendar, ....
After 10years of using Parrallels on our Mac's only to be able to have those kind of PC options, we would really want to work normally on a Mac as we do on PC.
Your PC- Mac prices are the equivalent ; so deliver equily please !Within the last week of a month, there is no need to see the previous 4 week...or if you're in the middle of a month and you want to see the future, you have to switch constantly between both months.
Seeing the next 6 weeks in a single shot- as on Outlook PC - is a very useful method for people who plan projects!
Thank you for solving this (or at least giving us feedback)
Thank you, JLouis -

Would still appreciate this feature!
Thanks for the tip about Ctrl+Left/Right, Keith!

YES, PLEASE enable a scroll feature in Calendar whereby you can scroll up and down from month to month using the scroll wheel or touch surface of your mouse. It would also help to enable this feature using the Page Down and Page Up keys on your keyboard. This feature is available in Mac Calendar and is very useful. The tiny little buttons at the top left of the screen in Outlook Calendar are difficult to reach and position perfectly with a mouse pointer on a large screen making navigation too cumbersome for many. It appears we can use the Ctrl Left and Right Arrow Buttons for month to month navigation but ideally we shouldn't have to use 2 keys for that and scrolling with a mouse would be much more intuitive and user friendly. Thank you!

Please add scrolling between weeks/days. iCal is so much better for that but my company wants me to use Outlook...

For more productivity, I'd prefer my Outlook to open in Calendar view instead of Inbox/mail. On Windows you can select in which view to open Outlook, but on Mac I can't find this feature.

I would like to hear from MS why the calendar is not scrolling.
