Scheduler Dates

[James Thomas]

Hello,

I have a scheduler control that displays 5 days at a time (week) and hides weekends. I would like the advance controls to move forward 5 days instead of one day. Is there any way to do this that I'm missing?

Thanks,

James

Hi James,

Attached is the sample as per your requirement. In our sample we have advance the date to forward 5 days from the date displayed once the VisibleDay button of the Scheduler control is pressed.

http://websamples.syncfusion.com/samples/Tools.Web/5.1.0.51/F62715/Scheduler_Inc62715/main.htm

* We have acheived this behaviour using the Scheduler control "CheckVisibleDay" event.
* We used Session variable to persist the advanced date to take effect on Page reload.

Let us know if our sample helps.

Thanks for using syncfusion products.

This actually doesn't work when going back - it just advances 5 days regardless (I realized after I sent this that I actually wanted it to advance 7 but that's not a big deal). The CheckVisibleDayEventArgs does not have an option for which direction was clicked.

Any thoughts?

I actually got this to work by overloading using the StartDateChanged event as follows:

protected void Scheduler1_StartDateChanged(object sender, StartDateChangedEventArgs e)
{
if (e.OldStartDate < Scheduler1.StartDate) // Moving forward
Scheduler1.StartDate = AdjustDateToMonday(Scheduler1.StartDate, true);
else // Moving backward
Scheduler1.StartDate = AdjustDateToMonday(Scheduler1.StartDate, false);
}

AdjustDateToMonday simply takes the date and adds (or subtracts) the correct number of days so we always wind up on a Monday when going forward or backwards.
