Opening the New Shift form directly from the rota

When you use the click-and-drag feature to mark a new shift on the rota, hold down the "Shift" key while releasing the mouse button. This will open the new shift form with the start and end times automatically filled in with your selected times.

This trick is helpful when you know you want to add details like Shift Title, Shift Info, or Shift Break to a newly created shift.
