Gantt CustomView Range Time

[Liu]

Hi,

I want to set the start time and end time  with remote data in Gantt CustomView,

so i call ajax then put them into "range" function, But the result  show out "undefined", 

my code bellow: 

  kendo.ui.GanttCustomView = kendo.ui.GanttView.extend({
            name: "custom",
            options: {
                yearHeaderTemplate: kendo.template("#=kendo.toString(start, 'yyyy')#"),
                quarterHeaderTemplate: kendo.template("# return ['Q1', 'Q2', 'Q3', 'Q4'][start.getMonth() / 3] #")
            },
            range: function(range) {
                var startD = '';
                var endD = '';
                $.ajax({
                    type: "post",
                    url: "@Href("~/Home/GetMinAndMaxDate/")",
                    data: { 'EmpNo': @Model.EmpNo },
                    async: false,
                    success: function (data) {
                        startD = data.split(";")[0];
                        endD = data.split(";")[1];
                    },
                    error: function () { alert("edit Error") }
                });
                this.start = new Date(startD);
                this.end = new Date(endD);        
            },

Shouldn't I do this? And how to set the date in remote way?

Thanks,

Liu

Hi Liu,

As you are requesting the start and end dates of the Range from a remote, I would suggest you to set them after the initialization of the widget. Here you could find a simple example, demonstrating the above suggestion on the default Gantt views.

Concerning the header template of the custom view, if you need any further assistance on this task, I would recommend you our Professional services. That team is focused on providing tailor-made solutions as per customer requirements. Let me know if you are interested in cooperating with our colleagues and I will arrange someone from the team to contact you directly.

Do we have that option to create custom view other than that are available (Days, Year and month)

Hello Vaishali,

There is an existing HowTo example in the documentation that demonstrates how a simple "Quarterly" custom view could be created for the Gantt. You could use the below link for reference:
