[Solved] Dynamic RadContextMenu in scheduler

[Julia Shah]

Hi,

I would like to add context menu to my scheduler dynamically - based on one of the custom attributes to show different menu items for each appointment. Is it possible? I couldn't find any examples for this scenario.

Thanks,
Julia

Hi Julia,

I suggest you hide specific menu items on the client based on the value of the apponitment's custom attribute. For example, using the Context Menu demo, suppose you have a Description custom attribute and you need to hide the first first item in the menu from the "categorize" list - "Development". You can use the following code:

function appointmentContextMenu(sender, eventArgs)
                {
                    var menu = $find("<%= SchedulerAppointmentContextMenu.ClientID %>");
                    selectedAppointment = eventArgs.get_appointment();
                    if (selectedAppointment.get_attributes().getAttribute("Description") == "non development") {
                        menu.findItemByValue("1").set_visible(false);
                    }
                    checkResourceMenuItem(menu, selectedAppointment);
                    menu.show(eventArgs.get_domEvent());
                }
