Delay appointments from being populated

[Greg Mercer]

Hi,

I've been using a web service bound version of the Scheduler control, and have discovered recently that another web service being called on the page is not being allowed to complete successfully, while the Scheduler is populating.

Is there a way to delay when the Scheduler initially begins populating?

Thanks,
Greg

Hi Greg,

You can cancel the appointmentsPopulating event and then force a refresh using the following trick:

var initialLoad = true;
function appointmentsPopulating(scheduler, eventArgs)
{
    if (initialLoad)
    {
        initialLoad = false;
        eventArgs.set_cancel(true);

        setTimeout(function() { scheduler.set_selectedDate(scheduler.get_selectedDate()); /* force refresh */ }, 2000 /* ms */);
    }
}

<telerik:RadScheduler runat="server" ID="RadScheduler1"             OnClientAppointmentsPopulating="appointmentsPopulating">

I hope this helps.

Best wishes,
