Multi Day Appointment Spans

[Steve Stich]

When a schedule grid has ShowMultiDayAppointmentsAsSpans = true the resulting multi day appointments appear to be rendered as a different control than the primary grid. The grid mouse events fire when interacting with a single day event, but they do not fire with a multi day event. I want to implement a custom tooltip that renders correctly for both single day appointments and multi-day appointments. How can I reference mouse events for these multi-day appointments?

Hi Steve Stich,

Based on your requirement, to check the reported issue, can you please provide the below-mentioned details:

• How did you implement the code for MultidayAppointments and event triggering for the Schedule control?

• Can you please provide the code snippets used in your sample?

• If possible, can you please provide a sample in which the issue replicates?

Providing these details will help us better understand the issue and work towards finding a solution promptly.

Below are code snippets for the schedule control and handling of mouse events on the schedule. All these mouse events fire as the mouse moves around the schedule EXCEPT when the mouse is over the multi-day appointments.

'Initialize the schedule

            Me.ScheduleControl1.ScheduleType = ScheduleViewType.Month

            Me.ScheduleControl1.Appearance.AllowProportionalColumnSizing = True

            'Me.ScheduleControl1.Appearance.VisualStyle = Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.GridVisualStyles.Metro

            Me.ScheduleControl1.ShowMultiDayAppointmentsAsSpans = True

            Me.ScheduleControl1.Appearance.EnableAdvancedToolTip = False

            AddHandler Me.ScheduleControl1.GetScheduleHost().DrawCell, AddressOf MainForm_DrawCell

            AddHandler Me.ScheduleControl1.GetScheduleHost().DrawCellBackground, AddressOf MainForm_DrawCellBackground

            AddHandler Me.ScheduleControl1.GetScheduleHost().MouseDown, AddressOf MainForm_ScheduleControl1_MouseDown

            AddHandler Me.ScheduleControl1.GetScheduleHost().MouseUp, AddressOf MainForm_ScheduleControl1_MouseUp

            'AddHandler Me.ScheduleControl1.GetScheduleHost().ShowingAdvancedToolTip, AddressOf MainForm_ScheduleControl1_ShowingAdvancedToolTip

            AddHandler Me.ScheduleControl1.GetScheduleHost().MouseMove, AddressOf MainForm_ScheduleControl1_GetScheduleHostMouseMove

            AddHandler Me.ScheduleControl1.GetScheduleHost().GridControlMouseMove, AddressOf MainForm_ScheduleControl1_GetScheduleHostGridControlMouseMove

            AddHandler Me.ScheduleControl1.GetScheduleHost().MouseDoubleClick, AddressOf MainForm_ScheduleControl1_GetScheduleHostMouseDoubleClick

            AddHandler Me.ScheduleControl1.GetScheduleHost().CellMouseHover, AddressOf MainForm_ScheduleControl1_GetScheduleHostCellMouseHover

            AddHandler Me.ScheduleControl1.MouseHover, AddressOf MainForm_ScheduleControl1_MouseHover

            AddHandler Me.ScheduleControl1.ShowingAppointmentForm, AddressOf ScheduleControl1_ShowingAppointmentForm

            AddHandler Me.ScheduleControl1.ItemChanging, AddressOf MainForm_ScheduleControl1_ItemChanging

            AddHandler Me.ScheduleControl1.AdjustingAppointmentWithMouse, AddressOf MainForm_ScheduleControl1_AdjustingAppointmentWithMouse

            Me.ScheduleControl1.DataSource = ScheduleDP

My schedule dataprovider class inherits arraylistdataprovider to get appointment data from SQL tables and otherwise works as I would expect.  Copy of that class is attached in a zip file.

Steve Stich,

We would like to let you know that Essential Studio Weekly NuGet packages (v25.1.38) has been published in nuget.org with the fix for the issue “Mouse events not triggering for spanned appointments when ShowMultiDayAppointmentsAsSpans is set to True”. Please let us know if you have any concerns in this.

Root Cause Details:

We have created the appointment using a Transparent label, it overlaps to schedule grid. So, when we try to use mouse events in the multiday appointment, the mouse events are not triggered. Now, we have called the grid events from this label events.

[Steve Stich]

I'm picking this project up and working on getting a custom tooltip control to show/hide for appointment items in the grid. I'm successfully using ScheduleControl.GetItemAtPoint to retrieve the item ID on a mousehover for all single day appointments, but multiday spans do not return an item when using GetItemAtPoint. 

Is there a way to retrieve the IScheduleAppointment of a multiday span with a mouse position?
