I am trying to fully control the look of dragging items within the week and day mode on the calendar. I have used the query events and this works, but I want to do better and prevent the changes to the look that happen when an appointment is attempted to be dragged and I do not want to allow it. It seems like I should be able to stop this before it begins rather than after when the UI has dropped the image of the appointmewnt already.
I am trying:
Dim oAppointments As IList(Of AppointmentItem) = Me.ctlCalendar.ChildrenOfType(Of AppointmentItem)()
For
Each oAppointmentItem In oAppointments
[some logic to set bDragPossible]
oAppointmentItem.SetValue(DragDrop.
RadDragAndDropManager.AllowDragProperty, bDragPossible)
Next
The problem I am running into with this is that even though I call this on the items I wish to diable drag on with a bDragPossible of false, it is ineffective and in the IDE I do not see any property on the AppointItem for the AllowDrag like there is for the allowDrop, so I think it is ignoring this attempt.
How can I shut down dragging at the source before it starts?
