Hi,

I wonder if it is possible to show the editappointment dialog programatically, i.e. not via the built-in context menu?

The dialog should show based on the selection in the scheduler, i.e. the same way as the context menu command does.

The reason why I'm asking is that I want to show the dialog through a separate toolbar command.

Thanks in advance,
Johan

Hi Johan Hedlund,

You should use the following code to show edit appointment dialog:

Appointment app = new Appointment(savedDate, savedDate.AddMinutes(this.minutes));
this.editDialog = new EditAppointmentDialog(app, this.radScheduler1);
if (this.editDialog.ShowDialog(this) == DialogResult.OK)
{
    this.radScheduler1.Appointments.Add(this.editDialog.Appointment);
}

In order to take the selected cell in the scheduler you should subscribe to MouseDown event on the scheduler and in it use the following code:

SchedulerCellElement cell = this.radScheduler1.SchedulerElement.ElementTree.GetElementAtPoint(e.Location) as SchedulerCellElement;
 
if (cell as SchedulerHeaderCellElement != null)
    return;
 
if (cell != null)
{
    savedDate = cell.Date;     
}

For more details look at the attached example.

Sincerely yours,

Thank you Dobry.

If I want to disable the default response to the double-click event, i.e. NOT show the appointment form, is it just to set the appointmentdialog to null in the OnAppointmenDialogShowing event or is it any "cleaner" solution to this?

Regards,
Johan

Hi Johan Hedlund,

Yes this is the right solution to block the showing of EditAppointmentDialog. But this will block all showings of this dialog. If you want to block it only upon DoubleClick you should subscribe to DoubleClick event and rise the some flag. Look the code below:

private bool isDoubleClick;
private void radScheduler1_AppointmentEditDialogShowing(object sender, AppointmentEditDialogShowingEventArgs e)
{
    if (isDoubleClick)
    {
        e.AppointmentEditDialog = null;
        isDoubleClick = false;
    }
}
private void radScheduler1_DoubleClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    isDoubleClick = true;
}

Feel free to ask additional questions.

Kind regards,
Dobry

Hi,

I am posting my question here as I believe it is logically related to this thread.

What I want to do is show the Edit Appointment Dialog when an appointment in the scheduler is double clicked. However I do not want to show the Edit Appointment Dialog when a free time slot is double clicked.

Is there any way this could be done?

The main obstacle seems to be that I am unable to detect whether the DoubleClick was on an empty time slot or on an appointment.

Thanks,

OK, I think I figured this out..
Hope this is a good way of differentiating whether the double click was on an appointment cell or not.
Private DisableDoubleClick As Boolean = False
 
    Private Sub radScheduler1_DoubleClick(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles radScheduler1.DoubleClick
        Dim point As Point = Me.radScheduler1.PointToClient(Cursor.Position)
        Dim schedulerCell As SchedulerCellElement = TryCast(Me.radScheduler1.ElementTree.GetElementAtPoint(point), SchedulerCellElement)
 
        If schedulerCell IsNot Nothing Then
            DisableDoubleClick = True
        End If
    End Sub
 
    Private Sub radScheduler1_AppointmentEditDialogShowing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.WinControls.UI.AppointmentEditDialogShowingEventArgs) Handles radScheduler1.AppointmentEditDialogShowing
        If DisableDoubleClick Then
            e.Cancel = True
            e.AppointmentEditDialog = Nothing
            DisableDoubleClick = False
        Else
            e.AppointmentEditDialog = New CustomEditAppointmentDialog()
        End If
 
    End Sub
