Time

This section allows to take into account events that are not exactly in the period selected by the user, by defining an offset before their start date and after their end date: this helps to not miss events active in the period, but started or finished outside (with a margin corresponding to the configured offsets).
Use the following drop-down lists to select the desired offsets:

• Start offset

• End offset

Select "Custom" to enter a specific time period.
