Problem visualizing events with less than one minute duration

[Francisco Fernandes]

Hi. I need the scheduler to allow me to add events with a duration of less than 1 minute, but I have a problem visualizing the events in the scheduler.

When I want events to have a duration of less than 1 minute, the event appears in the scheduler taking up the whole minute and not just the specified seconds, although the duration of the event is correct.

In this example, I add this event with a duration of 10 seconds and as you can see the time is correct (09:01:50 - 09:02:00) but it takes up 1 minute of the scheduler.

Can anyone help me solve this problem?

Hi Francisco,

Thank you for reaching out.

Could you please share more details about your use case? Typically, events are scheduled in minutes, so we’d like to understand the scenario where you need to schedule events in seconds. Knowing more about your requirements will help us further investigate and find a suitable solution.

Looking forward to your response.

Regards,

Swathi

Hi Swathi,

I want to use the scheduler to schedule content that will be shown at times specified in the scheduler, but some content I want to show only a few seconds and not minutes/hours, so I need events that last only a few seconds and then start another event.

Francisco,

Thank you for clarifying your use case. Currently, the Scheduler does not support rendering appointments with durations in seconds, as it operates on a minute-based timescale. Get back to us if you need any further assistance.

Are you planning to change this in a future update or is it not relevant?
