WPF Scheduler - A Highly Customizable Control

Overview

The WPF Scheduler control is used to schedule and manage appointments through an intuitive user interface, similar to the Outlook Calendar. Eight different view modes are supported: day, week, workweek, month, timeline day, timeline week, timeline workweek, and timeline month. The control’s rich feature set supports:

• A built-in appointment editor for manipulating appointments.
• Appearance customization.
• Appointment rescheduling through resizing and drag and drop.
• Localization to meet the needs of different regions.

Calendar types

Supports different types of calendars such as Gregorian, Korean, Hebrew, Hijri, Taiwan, Thai, UmAlQura, and Persian. The default calendar type is Gregorian.

Resource grouping

Group appointments based on the resources associated with them in day, week, workweek, timeline day, timeline week, timeline workweek, and timeline month views.

Load on demand

Load appointments on demand for the visible date range with the loading indicator. Loading appointments on demand improves loading performance ranging multiple years.

Date restriction

Prevent navigation before the minimum date and beyond the maximum date. This restricts users from selecting certain dates outside of a range of time.

WPF Scheduler Code Example

Easily get started with the WPF Scheduler using a few simple lines of XAML or C# code example as demonstrated below. Also explore our WPF Scheduler Example that shows you how to render and configure the scheduler in WPF.

xmlns:syncfusion="http://schemas.syncfusion.com/wpf"
<syncfusion:SfScheduler x:Name="Schedule"
                        ViewType="Week" >
</syncfusion:SfScheduler>

// Creating an instance for schedule appointment collection
var Appointments = new ScheduleAppointmentCollection();
//Adding schedule appointment in the schedule appointment collection 
Appointments.Add(new ScheduleAppointment()
{
    StartTime = new DateTime(2020, 12, 15, 10, 0, 0),
    EndTime = new DateTime(2020, 12, 15, 12, 0, 0),
    Subject = "Client Meeting",
    Location = "Hutchison road",
});
//Adding schedule appointment collection to the ItemSource of SfScheduler
Schedule.ItemsSource = Appointments;
