Hello Philip,

With the Scheduler's StartEditingInAdvancedForm property set to "true" double clicking on a time slow will open the advanced insert form. If you subscribe the control for the OnFormCreating server-side event it will fire prior to the insert form opening and you would be able to set the Appointment's data, for example the Subject and Description fields and the resources (User and Room in the example) values:

protected void RadScheduler1_FormCreating(object sender, SchedulerFormCreatingEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Mode == SchedulerFormMode.AdvancedInsert)
    {
        e.Appointment.Description = "Appointment Predefined Description";
        e.Appointment.Subject = "Appointment Predefined Subject";
        e.Appointment.Resources.Add(RadScheduler1.Resources.GetResourcesByType("User")[0]);
        e.Appointment.Resources.Add(RadScheduler1.Resources.GetResourcesByType("Room")[0]);
    }
}

As for the slot's "reserved" status, I am not sure what that is aimed at. Do you want to color some of the slots differently to make them distinguishable from other "non-reserved" slots?

Yes that is correct Ivan its to do with shift patterns so we can show what shifts that a certain member of staff can show their availability , also in reference to this is their any way of hidden Saturday and Sunday columns.

Hello Philip,

You can review the logic in the Scheduler's TimeSlotCreated server-side event handler in the Customizing the Time Slots demo. It shows how different css classes can be set to the time slots based on specific conditions and custom styles can be applied to them using these classes as selectors (styles.css).

As for hiding the Saturday and Sunday columns, there is no built in functionality that allows that but you can achieve it with CSS:

html .RadScheduler .rsSunCol, .rsSatCol {
    display: none;
}

html .RadScheduler .rsHorizontalHeaderTable th:first-of-type,
html .RadScheduler .rsHorizontalHeaderTable th:last-of-type,
html .RadScheduler .rsAllDayRow td:first-of-type,
html .RadScheduler .rsAllDayRow td:last-of-type {
    display: none;
}
