Appointment Creation

[Jonathan]

Hi,

When double clicking to create an appointment, I want the appointment to just appear without having to enter an appointment name or click the green tick box. Also, I dont want the facility to edit the appointment, just to be able to move it and delete it.

I'm using the scheduler as part of a weekly schedule, and the appointment text is retrieved from the database. The user shouldnt have the option to change this.

Is this possible?

Thanks,

Hi Jonathan,

I suggest you hook on the client-side OnFormCreating event, stop the inserting and create new appointment with the RadScheduler method InsertAppointment(). Check out the sample code below:

protected void RadScheduler1_FormCreating(object sender, SchedulerFormCreatingEventArgs e)
{
   if (e.Mode == SchedulerFormMode.Insert)
   {
        e.Cancel = true;
        e.Appointment.Subject = "test subject";
        RadScheduler1.InsertAppointment(e.Appointment);
    }
}

To prevent the editing of the appointment, you can use client-side event OnClientAppointmentEditing and cancel the editing with the function set_cancel(true) like this:

<script type="text/javascript">
   function OnClientAppointmentEditing(sender, eventArgs)
   {
        eventArgs.set_cancel(true);
   }
</script>

Hope this helps.

All the best,
