Can inline insert form default to Advanced?

[Rubens]

Hi,

when an user double-click my radScheduler, a simple inline form appears and he needs to click "Options" to see Advanced version, where he can select a room and resources.

Can I change that behavior to use Advanced form as default?

TIA,

Rubens

Hello Rubens,

You can set StartInsertingInAdvancedForm="true" to achieve this.

Hello Dimitar,

we are currently evaluating the brand new RadScheduler for Asp.net Ajax Q3 2010.
I set  StartEditingInAdvancedForm="true" and StartInsertingInAdvancedForm="true" then went in debug mode.
I doubled clicked on an empty space to show the "AdvancedInsertTemplate" form,
it showed up, i entered some text inside the Subject textfield then pressed saved.
I put a break point at the server method "RadScheduler1_AppointmentCommand" and expected to see
e.CommandName set to "Insert"
but unfortunately for me, i was surprised to see that
e.CommandName was set to "update" !!!

Sincerely hope you have any idea.
Thank you
Lucien

Hello,

Any Idea??? We tried and tried again, no clue.
We just realised that, when StartEditingInAdvancedForm  and StartInsertingInAdvancedForm are set to "false", then e.CommandName is set to "Insert", when clicking on an empty  place, and set to "update" when clicking on an filled placed.

Please, it's urgent, we really want to know if we should use Radscheduler for our business logic.

Thank you in advance for any hint!

Ok, now i finally found the problem, it was due to the help documentation i followed: http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/scheduler-custom-modal-advanced-template.html

Here under "AdvancedInsertTemplate", you have an "update" button as follow:

<asp:LinkButton CommandName="Update" runat="server" ID="UpdateButton" CssClass="rsAdvEditSave">
 <span> <%# Container.Appointment.Owner.Localization.Save%> </span>
</asp:LinkButton>

And that was my problem, because the CommandName was set to "Update"!
And everytime i tried to insert a new item, it was trying to update something not yet existing!

So, it should be an "Insert" button for the "AdvancedInsertTemplate"!
Something like this:

<asp:LinkButton CommandName="Insert" runat="server" ID="InsertButton" CssClass="rsAdvEditSave">
 <span> <%# Container.Appointment.Owner.Localization.Save%> </span>
</asp:LinkButton>

Please Telerik, tell me if i'm wrong, if not, please update the help at this page: http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/scheduler-custom-modal-advanced-template.html
Anyway, now it is working fine for me. I can edit and insert whenever i want it, with my advancedTemplates.
