Syncfusion greetings. 
 
Currently it is not possible in Scheduler and we have already logged it as feature request, which will be implemented in any one of our upcoming main release. 
 
In the meantime, kindly use  setWorkHours method to customize the wrok hours based on dates like below.   
 
Regards, 
Karthi

ok thx. I am still not able to achieve what I am looking for using the solution you mentioned above. In the example below, how can I set different start and end time for 10/7 and 10/8? In the example below, the start and end date would be the 10 AM and 2:30PM. But, how can I set two different start and end time for those 2 days?


let dates: Date[] = [new Date('2019/10/07'),new Date('2019/10/08')];
this.scheduleObj.setWorkHours(dates, '10:00','14:30')

Hi Jose, 
 
Thanks for the update. 
 
In the below sample, work hours is disabled by default and highlighted different hours for Feb 12 and 13 on initial load. 
 
onDataBinding(args): void { 
    if (this.flag) { 
      if ( 
        this.scheduleObj.currentView !== "Month" && 
        this.scheduleObj.currentView !== "Agenda" 
      ) { 
        var currentViewDates: any = this.scheduleObj.getCurrentViewDates(); 
        for (var i = 0; i < currentViewDates.length; i++) { 
          switch (currentViewDates[i].getDay()) { 
            case 1: 
              this.scheduleObj.setWorkHours( 
                [currentViewDates[i]], 
                "06:00", 
                "08:00" 
              ); 
              break; 
            case 2: 
              this.scheduleObj.setWorkHours( 
                [currentViewDates[i]], 
                "07:00", 
                "09:00" 
              ); 
              break; 
          } 
        } 
      } 
      this.flag = false; 
    } 
  } 
 
Note:  Above solution is based on day index and if you want to achieve it instead of date, call setWorkHours method with each date as param. 
 
Regards, 
Karthi

that worked perfectly thx! One last question - how can I assign a different color for non-working hours? Currently, the color difference between working and non-working hours are too light to see.

Hi Jose, 

Thanks for the update. 

we have achieved your requirement through CSS itself. Please refer the below code snippet and sample link, 
 
code snippet: 
.e-schedule .e-vertical-view .e-work-cells.e-work-hours { 
    background-color: grey; 
} 
.e-schedule .e-vertical-view .e-work-cells { 
    background-color: lightgray; 
} 
 
And for further reference, please view the below sample link, 
 
Regards, 
Hareesh

thx. Karthigeyan's example to set work hours worked. How do I block the time outside of working hours?

Hi Jose, 
 
Thanks for the update. 
 
We have prepared the sample based on the requirement which is available in below link, 
 
 
In the above sample, we have prevented the non-working hour interactions by overriding the CSS classes of e-work-cells like below, 
 
.e-schedule .e-vertical-view .e-work-cells.e-work-hours { 
    background-color: grey; 
    pointer-events: all !important; 
} 
 
.e-schedule .e-vertical-view .e-work-cells { 
   pointer-events: none; 
   background-color: #F0F0F0 ; 
 
   } 
 
 
 
Regards, 
M.Vinitha devi
