How to disable certain days on scheduler?

[Ming Yang]

Hi, I have some questions on how to use the scheduler:
1. How to block some days on the scheduler so that the users cannot schedule any appointments on that day? Is there any way to show those days with a different Css style so that users know it is not meant to be clicked?
2. Is there a way to disable the Navigation icon on certain months so that users know it cannot be clicked?
3. Is there a way to setup Apponitment CssClass in DESIGN time? I know how to set it up in running time at code and feel that it would be nice if I can do it in design time. Yet I cannot figure it out.

Thanks

Hi Ming,

1. You can check for the Start time of the TimeSlot object and set your custom css class accordingly:

protected void RadScheduler1_TimeSlotCreated(object sender, TimeSlotCreatedEventArgs e)
{
    //The code bellow will apply a Custom CssClass to all timeslots which
    //are before the today's day including today:
    if (e.TimeSlot.Start.CompareTo(DateTime.Now) == -1)
        e.TimeSlot.CssClass = "Custom";
}

We will also expose a TimeSlot.Enabled property which if set to false will prevent inserting appointments for this timeslot. Meanwhile you can workaround this limitation cancelling the OnClientAppointmentInserting event based on your custom condition: 

function OnClientAppointmentInsertingHandler(sender, eventArgs)
        {
            if(MyCondition)
            eventArgs.set_cancel(true);
        }

2. Which navigation icon do you mean? You can open a support ticket and send us a screenshot to help us better understand what you would like to achieve.

3. Currently, RadScheduler does not support setting CssClass property for appointments in design time, but we will consider this suggestion.

If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact us.

was TimeSlot.Enabled  ever implemented? if not when can we expect this?

[Peter]

Hello Zoinky,

There will be TimeSlot.ReadOnly property which we will implement in the near future. For now you will have to use the workaround from the kb article.

Thanks for your inquiry.
