Style a read-only "Slot"

[Troy]

What is the best way to go about preventing a read-only "Slot" object from being highlighted with a mouse over?

[Valeri Hristov]

Hello Troy,

I am afraid you cannot prevent the mouse over effect from appearing on the read-only slots.

Even if I re-template the control there is no way to prevent that?

[Valeri Hristov]

Yes. The rectangle that represents the mouse over highlight is displayed regardless of whether you are mouse overing a regular slot or a read-only slot and this behavior has nothing to do with the control styles and templates. I will log this behavior for reviewing, we will decide whether to change the default, or allow the developers to customize it.

Ok, thanks. I must say though, I am surprised to hear that.

Hi Team,

Is it possible to disable highlighting the slot when we mouse over on it.

when i mouse over on any of the slot it should not get highlighted. 

Please help me on this.

Hi Sravan,

You can use the MouseOverHighlightStyle property of the control to change the style of the mouse over state.
For example:

<Style x:Key="MouseOverHighlightStyle" TargetType="telerik:HighlightItem">

        <Setter Property="Template">
            <Setter.Value>
                <ControlTemplate>
                    <Border Background="Transparent" >

                    </Border>
                </ControlTemplate>
            </Setter.Value>
        </Setter>
    </Style>

All the best,

HI Rosi,

Thanks for the reply it worked for me.

But why special slots are not rendered until we mouse over on the slot. for special slots.

i want that to be displayed as the moment as the view is loaded. at present it is happening on mouse over

Hello Sravan,

This works as expected at our side as you can see here. I suggest you review the example and find the differences at your side. If this does not help you can send us sample running project to test it locally.

adding special slots as below

                        WorkingHourOccurence workingDayOcc = new WorkingHourOccurence();
                        workingDayOcc.Start = dtT;
                        workingDayOcc.End = dtT.AddDays(1);
                        workingDayOcc.Effort = (float)Math.Round((flEffort / flDuration) * 100, 2);
                        //workingDayOcc.RecurrencePattern = new RecurrencePattern(dtT.Day, GetRecurrenceDayOfWeekDay(dtT.DayOfWeek), RecurrenceFrequency.Daily, 1, dtT.Month, null);
                        workingDayOcc.RecurrencePattern = new RecurrencePattern(null, GetRecurrenceDayOfWeekDay(dtT.DayOfWeek), RecurrenceFrequency.Daily, 1, null, null);
                        //workingDayOcc.RecurrencePattern = new RecurrencePattern() { DayOfMonth = dtT.Day, Frequency = RecurrenceFrequency.Daily, Interval = 1, MonthOfYear = dtT.Month };
                        if (resources != null)
                            workingDayOcc.Resources.Add(trainer);
                        specialSlots.Add(workingDayOcc);

Hi Sravan,

I've tested the provided code and wasn't able to reproduce the issue - the special slots are shown as soon as the view is loaded, please check the attached project for a reference.

If you still experience the problem, please open a support ticket and send us a simple runnable project demonstrating it there. Thanks
