ModalPopup in scheduler appointment

[Jonathan]

Is it possible to call a modalpopup from within an appointment because it doesn't seem to work.

Also, is it possible to have a div within an appointment which expands outside of the edges of the appointment?

Cheers

Hi Jonathan,

Have you seen the External Edit in RadWindow example? Is this what you need? If you want to implement something different, please be more specific.

As for the second question, RadScheduler does not support this functionality.

Hi

Yes I've seen the radwindow, I use it elsewhere. The problem is that I don't want to have to load another page to display some information.

The reason being that the appointment isn't big enough to show all the information I want to show. So my idea is to have a button called 'more' or something similar which when you click it displays a modal popup which contains more information about the appointment. This doesn't need to be a whole new page, just a div with some extra info.

Cheers
Jon

Hello Jonathan,

If that's the case, then I suggest you consider the Using RadToolTip example. The tooltip shows on hover of the appointment and displays additional info such as start and end time and a scrollable div with the entire subject's text. Let us know if this is an acceptable alternative for you.

This same scenario is also possible with a modal window, but you will still need another page to pass to the window.

Hi Peter

That is pretty much exactly what I want.

One problem though, hopefully simple. When I moseover the event the tooltip appears with the loading icon but then disappears. Any ideas as to why this happens? Also can I fire the display of the tooltip on a button click?

Cheers

Ok I've got a bit further with this problem.

It seems that when I mouse over the appointment that this event is being called immediatley

function

hideActiveToolTip()

{

var controller = Telerik.Web.UI.RadToolTipController.getInstance();

var tooltip = controller.get_activeToolTip();

if (tooltip)

{

tooltip.hide();

}

}

Which I'm pretty sure it shouldn't be. The only place which I can that is causing this problem is this bit of code from the demo

Private

Sub Scheduler_DataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Scheduler.DataBound

RadToolTipManager1.TargetControls.Clear()

ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript(

Me, GetType(Page), "HideToolTip", "hideActiveToolTip();", True)

End Sub

What do you think?

Hello Jonathan,

You can display the tooltip on left-click by setting ShowEvent="OnClick" for RadToolTip manager. As for the other problem, I don't quite get it. The online example seems to work fine. Please, let me know if I am missing something.

Hi Peter

The problem was the scheduler event which was outputting a hide script.

Removing that fixed my problem.
