Finding out which Appointment was double-clicked.

[Oliver]

Hello!

I have my RadScheduler's DoubleClick event written to display a custom form from a program that Telerik controls are embedded in.  The problem is, I can't figure out how to find out which Appointment was selected when the user double-clicks one to edit in the RadScheduler.  I've tried adding an AppointmentSelecting event handler, but then I can't drag and drop.  Using a custom edit appointment form is not an option.  What should I do?

Thanks.

Hello Julia,

Thank you for your question.

You can use the MouseDoubleClick event of RadScheduler and the mouse location in its arguments to detect the if the element under the mouse is an AppointmentElement:

private void radScheduler1_MouseDoubleClick(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
    AppointmentElement appointmentElement = this.radScheduler1.ElementTree.GetElementAtPoint(e.Location) as AppointmentElement;
    if (appointmentElement != null)
    {
        RadMessageBox.Show(appointmentElement.Appointment.Summary);
    }
}

Additionally, if you need to get the currently selected appointment, you can use the following method:

SchedulerUIHelper.GetSelectedAppointment(this.radScheduler1);

I hope this will help you. Should you have any additional questions, do not hesitate to write back.

Kind regards,
