Can't Sort Days Order of Appoinments in Monthview

[Karl]

Hello,

I use RadScheduler in my project and my appointments have custom colors, icons etc.

I add appointments to RadScheduler manually in the following way:

foreach (var app in appointments)

    radScheduler1.Appointments.Add(app);

I have a problem with RadScheduler MonthView. I want to add appointments to MonthView and I want them to be shown sorted by time (IEvent.Start.TimeOfDay), so if app1.Start.TimeOfDay > app2.Start.TimeOfDay and app1.Start.Date == app2.Start.Date then app1 should appear under app2.

I tried to solve this problem by ordering my appointments collection:

var appointments = src.OrderBy(a => a.Start.TimeOfDay);

foreach (var app in appointments)

    radScheduler1.Appointments.Add(app);

But this did not help, so is there a way to solve this problem? Actually I need a way for sorting appointments by time in MonthView.

I am sending you an image of the MonthView, where you can see that appointments are ordered in an inccorrect way. Take a look at Dec 20 and you will see the appointment, that appears at the bottom has its Start.TimeOfDay 09:15, so it should appear as the second starting from the top. Why does it behave in such a strange way?

Thank you for your support.

Hello Karl,

Thank you for writing.

I have tested the described approach and I did not find any issues with the order of the added appointments. The RadShceduler control always sorts the appointments using the start DateTime. Here is a used test application:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using Telerik.WinControls.UI;

namespace Lab.Scheduler
{
    public partial class SchedulerSortAppointmentsForm : Form
    {
        private RadScheduler scheduler = new RadScheduler();

        public SchedulerSortAppointmentsForm()
        {
            InitializeComponent();

            scheduler.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
            scheduler.Parent = this;
            scheduler.ActiveViewType = SchedulerViewType.Month;
        }

        protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e)
        {
            base.OnLoad(e);


            Appointment apt = new Appointment(DateTime.Now.AddHours(1), new TimeSpan(1, 0, 0), "Appointment 2");
            scheduler.Appointments.Add(apt);

            apt = new Appointment(DateTime.Now, new TimeSpan(1, 0, 0), "Appointment 1");
            scheduler.Appointments.Add(apt);

            apt = new Appointment(DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(70), new TimeSpan(1, 0, 0), "Appointment 3");
            scheduler.Appointments.Add(apt);
        }
    }
}

Please view the result in the attached screenshot. If you continue to experience the same issue please send us a small part of your data and sample project to investigate the case locally.

Thank you for your time and cooperation.

All the best,
