Bug when using cutomized Advanced Template

[GrZeCh]

I think I've found bug when cutomized Advanced Template is used.

Scenario:

1. Go here http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax-beta/Scheduler/Examples/AdvancedFormTemplate/DefaultCS.aspx
2. Switch to month view
3. Click on some day and enter options
4. Try now to create event which occurse once it is all day and lasts only one day
5. When You try to select the same start and end date while having all day selected then script is showing error Start time must be before end time
6. When end date is selected to (startdate+1day) (all day event checkbox is selected too) then event is create for two days

There is no possibility to create all day event which lasts only one day.

EDIT: I'm using Q3 beta. There is one more thing. When I enter edit form for this evenI I see that end date is selected +1day so if I just save (without changing anything) then this event will be longer (+1day).

Telerik staff .. can you confirm that this is a bug?

Hello,

Thank you for reporting this issue. We can confirm that this is a bug.

The fix turned out to be simple enough. You just need to replace the Start and End property getters in SchedulerDefaultForm.ascx.cs with these:

[Bindable(BindableSupport.Yes, BindingDirection.TwoWay)]
public DateTime Start
{
    get
    {
        return Range.Start;
    }

    // ...
}

[Bindable(BindableSupport.Yes, BindingDirection.TwoWay)]
public DateTime End
{
    get
    {
        return Range.Start.Add(Range.EventDuration);
    }

    // ...
}

We will include these changes in the official Q3 release. Your Telerik points have been updated for your involvement.

All the best,

Great. Thanks

I'm still having a similar issue.  When I go to create an appointment, I click "options" to get the "Advanced Edit Form".  I uncheck "All Day Event" and set the end date to the same date as the start date and set the start time to say "9:00 AM" and the end time to "10:00 AM".  When I click save it resets the times to "12:00 AM" and says "Start time must be before end time"

I am using RadControls Q3 2008

Hi Justin,

This is another problem that we have recently fixed. You need to replace the BasicControlsPanel_DataBinding function in SchedulerDefaultForm.ascx.cs with:

protected void BasicControlsPanel_DataBinding(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    AllDayEvent.Checked = IsAllDayAppointment(Appointment);
}

The fix will also be available in the upcoming SP.

So I have to put all those files into my project?

[GrZeCh]

I have something to add here. Does end date must be startdate+1 day when setting allday events? I think when there should be something like

enddate = (startdate + how many days it should last) -1

so when creating allday event for one day should have startdate = enddate

What do you think about this?

Hi Justin,

I assumed you were using the external template files, as this thread discusses them. Please, open a formal support ticket, s we can send you the latest build that has this issue fixed in the integrated template too.

GrZeCh, I see what you mean. This is definitely possible and is indeed more usable. We have not implemented it, as we are trying to avoid confusion and to be consistent with the internal representation of the all-day appointments. We will consider if we should change our approach here. We might implement this change for the Q1 release, as it will be a breaking change.

The nice thing about the templates is that you are free to modify them as you wish. I am attaching you a modified version of SchedulerDefaultForm.ascx.cs that behaves in the way that you describe. Let me know if that is exactly what you had in mind.

Yes. This is exactly what I was talking about.

Thanks

I have tried to do exactly your code but I still have the bug.
I actually prefer to have the all day checked and invisible and have the time showing like 6AM starttime and 8AM endtime. Is there a way to achieve it? But if I can get rid of the bug first that would be wonderful. Since I have tried to change the codes but still unsuccessful.

This is what my current code is:

            <li class="rsTimePick">
                <label for='<%= StartDate.ClientID %>_dateInput_text'><%= Owner.Localization.AdvancedFrom %></label>
                <telerik:RadDatePicker  runat="server" ID="StartDate" CssClass="rsAdvDatePicker"
                                        Width="83px" SharedCalendarID="SharedCalendar"
                                        Skin='<%# Owner.Skin %>'
                                        Culture='<%# Owner.Culture %>'>
                    <DatePopupButton Visible="False" />
                    <DateInput
                        runat="server"

                </telerik:RadDatePicker>
