Rooms inside rooms

Some rooms divide: a hall split by a curtain, a gym into two courts, a field into halves. Make each part a room of its own, part of the whole, and Caletan keeps them straight: the whole and its parts are never booked over each other.

Divide a room

  1. On the location's page, tap Add space.
  2. Name the part, say Hall North, with its kind and the most people it holds.
  3. Under Part of, choose the whole: Main Hall. It says what that means as you choose.
  4. Tap Add space, and do the same for each other part.

Hall North, part of Main Hall Main Hall, with its halves under it

The location's page lists each part under the room it's part of. A part can be divided again, as a field's half into quarters.

How they're booked

  • Booking the whole books every part. A recital in Main Hall holds Hall North and Hall South too, so neither can be rented then.
  • Booking a part keeps the whole from being booked. While Hall North has a class, Main Hall can't be booked, but Hall South still can.
  • Two parts can be booked at once, each on its own.

Everything that holds a room books this way: classes, rentals, parties, appointments and shows, online and at the desk.

Changing what a room is part of

Open the room and change Part of. Put under a room, it takes on what's already booked there from now on; taken out, it keeps its own bookings and drops the whole's. If the two are already booked at the same time, you're told what clashes and nothing changes.

A room with parts can't be deleted while they're inside it: delete the parts, or make them part of something else, first.

Main Hall can't go while its halves are inside it
