Hi Dario, 

Thanks for using Syncfusion products. 

We have analyzed your reported Query at our end.  We need some more information about your requirement. Can you please let us know the following, 

 

1.       What you are meant by the term “date’s range”? 

2.       Whether you need to get the date displayed in the Navigation Panel or in the SchduleGrid? 

  

Regards, 

Adhi

Hello, thanks for your attention.

I need the date range displayed by the Schedule Grid.
My goal is to print the actual view to a report and, to do so, I need the starting date and the ending date being sent to the report parameters.
How can I achive that?

Hi Dario, 

Thanks for your update. 

We have analyzed your scenario at our end. The schedule control does not have the default support to get the start date and end date of the scheduleGrid. If you want to get the date range displayed in the Schedule UI, you can achieve this with some workaround using the AppointmentShowing event. In this event you can get the StartTime of the appointment. Please refer to the following code snippet, 

Code Snippet: 

this.scheduleControl1.ShowingAppointmentForm += new ShowingAppointmentFormHandler(scheduleControl1_ShowingAppointmentForm); 

 

void scheduleControl1_ShowingAppointmentForm(object sender, ShowingAppointFormEventArgs e) 

{ 

    DateTime startDate = e.Item.StartTime.Date; 

    //TimeSpan spann = new TimeSpan(); 

    DateTime endDate =startDate.AddDays(34); 

    ///startDate.Add(); 

    MessageBox.Show(e.Item.StartTime.Date.ToString()+""+ endDate.ToString()); 

}

...and what am I supposed to do with the start date of the appointment?
I need the current displayed schedule date range, so I don't understand what I can do with the starting date of one item....

Is it possible to get at least the scheduler start display date? With this and getting the view mode (month, week, workweek) I can achieve what I need.

Hi Dario, 

  

Thanks for your update. 

  

In our previous update, we have provided the solution for getting the start date value by clicking the appointment cell. You can also use the DrawCellDisplayText event to get the start date of the schedule grid. Using this event, you can get the display text of the particular cell. You can use this text to get the start date of the grid. please make use of the following code snippet and sample, 

  

Code Snippet: 

this.scheduleControl1.GetScheduleHost().DrawCellDisplayText += newSyncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridDrawCellDisplayTextEventHandler(Form1_DrawCellDisplayText); 

  

string displayText = null; 

void Form1_DrawCellDisplayText(object sender, Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridDrawCellDisplayTextEventArgs e) 

{ 

    if (e.RowIndex == 1 && e.ColIndex == 1) 

        displayText = e.Style.Text; 

} 

  

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) 

{ 

    string[] list = displayText.Split(new char[] { '' }); 

    //Get the date from the display text 

    DateTime startDate = DateTime.Parse(list[0], this.scheduleControl1.Culture).Date; 

    //Display the start date 

    MessageBox.Show(startDate.ToString()); 

}
