Change background color of cell relative to data

[Karl]

I have a scheduler control displayed in timeline view, with resources and days.
If a resource (Consultant) is not available for a given day, we want to highlight this by setting the background colour of the intersection of his resource row and the date.

In the example image, no one is available on the 9th of September, and most arent available of the 8th either. However, Geoff Swindell is available on the 8th, but not on the 4th.

Because the CellFormatting event occurs as is drawn and before we have the data, we're having trouble colouring these rows.

Is it possible to format the cells AFTER we have this data?

Events and appointments will be overlaid on top of these dates, even if they're marked as unavailable.

Thank,
Karl

Yes it is.

Simply get the data that governs which days are to be configured with an alternate background color before binding resources and appointments.

Voila!

Hello Karl,

Thank you for your question.

The CellFormatting event is fired each time when you change the view. Therefore, you can force firing the event when you have retrieved your data by replacing the ActiveView with a copy of the current one:

this.radScheduler1.ActiveView = this.radScheduler1.ActiveView.OffsetView(0);

I hope this will help. Please let me know if you need further help.
