Hi ,
Previous  given solution was fine.
 Thank you very much.

 I have few questions to customize the Scheduler based on our requirements .

    I am using syncfusion scheduler,  there i am able to show my own database  column values in the scheduler.
 Question ---
1.you creating an uniqueID for each Appointment and to update that Appointment are you using that id to update that particular Appointment .

My question is i actucally need one UniqueID in my database to make as Primary key and that same id i need to pass from UI on click of save so that it will UPDATE into The Database.
I tried to find to get that Unique ID property in my AppointmentEditorClosed event to but not got.

 If you are not using anything like Unique ID then let me know how i can update my Appointment into my sqlite database, means That WHERE Clause what i can pass to update into my SQLITE table .
Note : SelectedDate Property will Not work here because in one date i can have No of Appointment .

    protected async void schedule1_AppointmentEditorClosed(object sender, AppointmentEditorClosedEventArgs e)

        {
            #region Appointment ID need to pass so its throughing error
           
            Appointementdata objAppointementdata = new Appointementdata();
            ScheduleAppointment objScheduleAppointment = schedule1.SelectedAppointment;
            objAppointementdata.StartTime = objScheduleAppointment.StartTime.ToString();
            objAppointementdata.EndTime = objScheduleAppointment.EndTime.ToString();
            objAppointementdata.Subject = objScheduleAppointment.Subject;

            //List<Common.Data.Appointementdata> lstappointment = await UpdateAppointment(objAppointementdata);
            #endregion
        }

2-> I am showing one popup on click of Date if the Date have any appointment already.suppose my popup is open and
 I am navigating by using next button (topLeft ) or previous button (Top Right) i need to hide that POPUP which i am not getting that on which Event i need to hide.

3 -> I need to know that suppose i have one date that could be Different not the Current date so if i am  coming from some other screen to my month or week view based Desired date i need to Open my Month and week view not based on my current
date .ex. i am passing 24/02/2014 to my Month view i need to show the Month view of that month that is 02 of 2014.

if you have any doubt about my question please let me know .

Please find the attachment for question 2.

Thanks

Hi Puneeth,

Thanks for your previous update.

We are currently analyzing on this, we will let you know the detail in two business days (Nov 22, 2013).

Please let us know, if you have any concerns.

Joy Oyiess Rex K

Hi Puneeth,

 

 

We appreciate your patience.

 

 

Please find the response for your queries given below.

 

 

Regarding Unique ID for each appointment.

 

 

The RecurrenceID  property of the ScheduleAppointment has been calculated from its hash code, so we can use this property for unique ID.

 

 

Note:- This property is available from our latest WinRT SP release(v11.3.0.32).

 

Regarding Clear Custom Pop-up

 

We don’t have any direct support to listen  the  visible dates change while Navigation , but your requirement can be achieved by using the VisibleDates property of the SfSchedule. This is a property contains the visible dates collection of SfSchedule. This property gets changed while we navigate the view.

 

 

So when we bind the VisibleDates property of SfSchedule to a Local property in application, then local property gets changed when VisibleDates property gets changed. By listening to the local property changed (clear the pop –up in its set{}) we can perform required action.

 

 

Regarding MoveToDate

 

 

In Order to move to specific date, you can use the MoveToDate() method of the SfSchedule, where you need to pass the required date in that method.

 

 

Please let us know, if you need any further assistance.

Joy Oyiess Rex K

2-another Question is are we have event for save , delete and cancel Button click .

Thanks in Advance
Puneeth

[Joy Oyiess Rex K]

Hi Puneeth,

 

Thanks for your previous update.

 

Query #1: Regarding accessing RecurrenceID.

 

The RecurrenceID property of ScheduleAppointments is read-only property and this property is available only after WinRT SP v11.3.0.32. We have prepared a simple sample for the same, please find the sample in the attachment.

 

In the provided sample we have get the RecurrenceID for the SelectedAppointment in the ScheduleTapped event of the Schedule.

 

Query #2: Regarding events for Save/Cancel/Delete button.

 

Currently we don’t provide event support for Save/Cancel and Delete buttons in our ScheduleAppointmentEditor.

 

Please let us know, if you have any concerns.

Joy Oyiess Rex K
