Iuri,

Go to sitewide admin, select calendar and go to parameters. There you can change the default presentation format by replacing "month" with day or year.

Good luck
Ben

we got a good example to explain how confuse is oacs to beginers,
my oacs box has two admin sections, actually three or more i only know 3 and this one is dotlrn admin but i'd rather let it out.

so, my oacs has http://www.mysite.com/admin as title is
Main Site Administration

and
http://www.mysite.com/acs-admin as title is Site-Wide-Administration

then sometimes i create things on the first that shows up diferent on the second and vice-versa and the whole mess takes place on my mind

Ben,
About the calendar parameters each one admin section took me to diferent places that i could change parameters.
i've been on both i changed it. But nothing happened.

see the mini-calendar there?

You could try the developer admin, that link however is misplaced. You'll find it hidden in the right hand corner on the sitewide admin page. I agree confusing and ilogical. A better place would be as part of core administration.

Cheers
Ben

then just to enphasize what i said before about how unclear and ilogical oacs is...

The answer to change the default value of the calendar from month to day, it was only go to the code and on the include call on the page "site-master.adp" and change the value of an atribute:
include src="/packages/calendar/www/mini-calendar" base_url="/calendar/view" view="day" date="@date@"
