Column Width

[Frederic Latour]

Hello,

I have a problem with the header and the datacolumn width in RadScheduler.

My Scheduler has grouping resource and is grouped by room. I have 18 rooms, and in the header, the automatic width set to the room name is "5.6%", but for the datacolumns, the width set is "6%".
So there is an issue with the width, and just 17 of my datacolumns are displayed, moreover everything is offbeat.

I don't know if it's obvious what I say, so I made a screenshot :

I have a dropdown which filters the scheduler to display only rooms in a particular building, and so, when there is 8 or less rooms, there's no problem.


So that said, is there a way to have a minimum width for a column, and having horizontal scroll, because my columns are very tiny ! Or, a way to correct the previous behaviour ?

Thanks

Hi Frederic,

We have in fact fixed this problem. Please, update to the latest version (2008.1.619). Sorry for the inconvenience.

We are planning to implement horizontal scrolling, but we will not be able to do so in time for the Q2 release. The best workaround that we can offer at the moment is to use paging for the resources. I am attaching you an example that demonstrates this approach.

Hello,

Thanks and sorry for the delay. I've installed the latest version (2008.1.619), and it solved this issue.

But in my memory, even if the event was short and the event subject was long, there was a resizing button on every appointment.
Now, with IE7, I don't have resizing button on appointment with long subject and short time. (I have this resizing button with Firefox 3)

I've corrected this behaviour by setting an absolute position to the rsAptInner class, was it the correct thing to do ?

Thanks

Hello Frederic,

Your solution is correct and should be completely safe. In fact we will include this change in the base scheduler stylesheet after we test it.

Thank you

Hi,

I must admit that I found a problem with this solution !
When you are in Month View, and you "mouseover" an appointment, it disappears in IE7.

To correct that, I changed the CSS line to :
.RadScheduler .rsWorkHour .rsAptInner { position:absolute; }

Indeed, the class rsWorkHour is only set on Day and Week View, but not on Month View, so on Month View, it will still be a relative position.

This works with IE7 and Fx3 in Day, Week and Month View.

Hello Frederic Latour,

Thank you for sharing that information in the forums.

Let us know if you stumble upon further frustrations with the scheduler in the future - we will do our best to provide more robust skinning and rendering with further versions of Telerik.Web.UI.
