Controlling background color in RadScheduler

[Bob]

I need to be able to control the calendar background color, pixel by pixel for specific rows, to show when a resource is available (green) or not available (red).  Is there a way to easily do this?

Hi Bob,

I am not sure what exactly you want to achieve, but here are a couple of links on RadScheduler appearance,  which might hel you get started.

Set different styles for appointments

Set alternating style for the rows  

If this is different from what you need, please elaborate and we will try fo find a solution.

The second link is close to what I want but I need a little more control.  Let's say for example that I want to shade the background differently for the times from 8:00 am - 9:30 am and for 11:00 am - 11:45 am.  Is that level of control possible?

Hello Bob,

That's a very reasonable scenario, but currently it is not possible. Most likely we will implement a server event, for example OnTimeSlotCreated, in which you can set a css class for that particular slot. There is some possibility that this feature will appear for the upcoming Q1 2008 in April, but more likely it will be implemented for the next Q2 2008 release.

I wanted to know if there was an update to this since it is Q2 2008 now.

I am trying to do something similar where I can show with a colors or styles the available times and unavailable times.

I looked that KB.   the background only changes the color when I hover over the timeslot. I am trying to getting a different background color for a timeslot. Is that posible?

I not sure if I am missing anything with that demo,  but to get the background color to be a different color, I change the style to the following:

        td.Disabled>div
        {
            background-color: Gray;
        }

thanks.

Thanks John. We will review the kb as per your feedback.
