The default calendar mode is `systems`, while `any` preserves the older one-neutral-dot behaviour. Template file fields in both Periodic Notes and Date systems use a native `datalist` populated from every Markdown path in the vault (without the optional `.md` extension), so templates stored outside a conventional `Templates/` folder remain discoverable.
### Templater folder triggers
Waypoint deliberately does not evaluate Templater syntax. For an interactive Templater template, configure Templater's **Trigger Templater on new file creation** mode for the relevant folder, then leave that date system's `templateFile` blank in Waypoint. Waypoint creates a safe fallback note from `typeProperty` and the selected `YYYY-MM-DD` date; Templater's folder trigger owns the rendered content, prompts, scripts, and cursor placement.

`Name format` uses moment.js tokens. Bracket-escape literal text: `YYYY-MM-DD - [Journal]`. Add `{title}` when a date can have multiple notes; it is replaced with the title requested when creating a note. Without `{title}`, the system has exactly one note per date.

Under **Settings → Waypoint Sidebar → Calendar**, choose either:

Daily uses the Calendar tabs colour picker. Journal, Meeting, and every custom system have their own **Indicator colour** picker under **Date systems**. The defaults are blue for Daily, green for Journal, and violet for Meeting.
