Drill down like implementation for Schedule View control

[PMG]

Hi,

I would like to useTelerik Schedule View control in a C# Silverlight application, implemented in the following manner.

A sequence of years will be there and underneath each year the number of appointments, if present, will be displayed. For example,
2010  2011 2012 2013
 10                 5             

Like wise for each resource. Now on clicking on any of these numbers , the corresponding year will be drilled down to its month view.
i.e  if i clicked number 10 in the above example,

Jan2010   Feb2010    Mar2010..............Dec2010
   6                                  4

Now on clicking 4 , it will  drill down to march's day view(1 -31 days). In this day view the details of the 4 appointments will be shown in the usual manner.  

Hope the description is clear. Would u please help me in implementing the above using the control? I think it's possible to implement this.

Hello,

The required approach is not so easy to implement and requires some custom code. I have attached a simple project which you can use as a base - it demonstrates how to group TimelineView by years and by months. Note that you should manually set VisibleDays property and also CurrentDate property which defines the first date in the view.

I would suggest to show the count of the appointments in TimeRuler headers. This could be achieved by customizing the TimeRulerItemTemplateSelector of the ScheduleView. You can add the needed details in HorizontalTimelineMinorItemTemplate. 

Hope this will help.
