This knowledge base article explains the way to open the editor after selecting the group of cells like Google.

 

Step 1: Create a React Scheduler by referring the following user guide link.

https://ej2.syncfusion.com/react/documentation/schedule/getting-started/

Step 2: Bind and un-bind the mouseup event in componentDidMount and componentWillUnmount as shown in the following code example.

componentDidMount() {
    document.addEventListener('mouseup', this.mouseupHandler.bind(this));
  }
  componentWillUnmount() {
    document.removeEventListener('mouseup', this.mouseupHandler.bind(this));
  }

Step 3: In mouseupHandler function, selected cells start and end time can be retrieved using getCellDetails function which then passed to openEditor function to open the editor as shown in the following code example.

mouseupHandler(e: any) {
    let sch: any = ((document.querySelector('.e-schedule')) as any).ej2_instances[0];
    var target = e.target.classList.contains('e-work-cells');
    var selectedCells = sch.element.querySelectorAll(".e-selected-cell");
    if (selectedCells.length > 1 && target) {
      var activeCellsData = sch.getCellDetails(sch.getSelectedElements());
      sch.openEditor(activeCellsData, 'Add');
    }
  }
