Multi RadScheduler associated to one SchedulerNavigator

[Luigi]

HI,

How i can associate two or many radscheduler at the same radschedulernavigator?

I must to create a form that have 1 radschedulernavigator and 2 radscheduler where i must to show different information.

Thanks

Hello Luigi,

Thank you for writing.

You cannot associate more than one RadScheduler with a RadBindingNavigator at a time. You can, however put a RadDropDownList with the available schedulers. So that when a value is selected the AssociatedScheduler property of the navigator will be changed. For example here is a sample code:

this.DropDownList = new RadDropDownList();
this.DropDownList.Parent = this;
this.DropDownList.Dock = DockStyle.Top;

List<SchedulerWrapper> schedulers = new List<SchedulerWrapper>();
RadScheduler scheduler1 = new RadScheduler()
{
    Parent = this,
    Dock = DockStyle.Right
};

RadScheduler scheduler2 = new RadScheduler()
{
    Parent = this,
    Dock = DockStyle.Left
};

schedulers.Add(new SchedulerWrapper(scheduler1));
schedulers.Add(new SchedulerWrapper(scheduler2));

this.DropDownList.DataSource = schedulers;
this.DropDownList.DisplayMember = "Name";
this.DropDownList.DataMember = "Scheduler";
this.DropDownList.SelectedValueChanged += dropDownList_SelectedValueChanged;

private RadSchedulerNavigator navigaror;
void dropDownList_SelectedValueChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    this.navigaror.AssociatedScheduler = (this.DropDownList.SelectedItem.DataBoundItem as SchedulerWrapper).Scheduler;
}

class SchedulerWrapper
{
    public string Name
    {
        get { return this.Scheduler.Name; }
    }

    public RadScheduler Scheduler { get; private set; }

    public SchedulerWrapper(RadScheduler scheduler)
    {
        this.Scheduler = scheduler;
    }
}

The SchedulerWrapper class is needed since you can bind only to properties which are declared in the bound type.

I hope this helps.

Hello George

With one Navigator i must do automatic change 2 schedulers
In attach find a screenshot of my form.
Thanks

Hello Luigi,

Thank you for writing.

RadSchedulerNavigator can be associated to only one RadScheduler at a time. However, you can subscribe to all events introduced by the navigator and affect the second scheduler as well. Here is a sample code snippet demonstrating how to handle most of the events and affect the second scheduler:

public Form1()
{
    InitializeComponent();

    this.radSchedulerNavigator1.AssociatedScheduler = this.radScheduler1;
    this.radSchedulerNavigator1.DayViewClick += radSchedulerNavigator1_DayViewClick;
    this.radSchedulerNavigator1.WeekViewClick += radSchedulerNavigator1_WeekViewClick;
    this.radSchedulerNavigator1.MonthViewClick += radSchedulerNavigator1_MonthViewClick;
    this.radSchedulerNavigator1.TimelineViewClick += radSchedulerNavigator1_TimelineViewClick;
    this.radSchedulerNavigator1.ShowWeekendStateChanged += radSchedulerNavigator1_ShowWeekendStateChanged;
    this.radSchedulerNavigator1.NavigateBackwardsClick += radSchedulerNavigator1_NavigateBackwardsClick;
    this.radSchedulerNavigator1.NavigateForwardsClick += radSchedulerNavigator1_NavigateForwardsClick;
}

private void radSchedulerNavigator1_NavigateForwardsClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    int navigationStep = this.radSchedulerNavigator1.SchedulerNavigatorElement.NavigationStep;
    NavigationStepTypes navigationStepType = this.radSchedulerNavigator1.SchedulerNavigatorElement.NavigationStepType;

    switch (this.radScheduler2.ActiveViewType)
    {
        case SchedulerViewType.Day:
        case SchedulerViewType.MultiDay:
            navigationStep = 1;
            navigationStepType = NavigationStepTypes.Day;
            break;
        case SchedulerViewType.Timeline:
            navigationStep = 1;
            navigationStepType = StepsByScalling(this.radScheduler2.GetTimelineView().GetScaling().Timescale, ref navigationStep);
            break;
        case SchedulerViewType.Week:
        case SchedulerViewType.WorkWeek:
            navigationStep = 1;
            navigationStepType = NavigationStepTypes.Week;
            break;
        case SchedulerViewType.Month:
            navigationStep = 1;
            if (!this.radScheduler2.GetMonthView().ShowWeekend)
            {
                navigationStep += 2;
            }
            DateTime endDate = this.radScheduler2.ActiveView.EndDate.AddDays(navigationStep);
            DateTime dtStart = this.radScheduler2.ActiveView.StartDate;
            DateTime dtStartMonth = new DateTime(endDate.Year, endDate.Month, 1);
            navigationStep = dtStartMonth.Subtract(dtStart).Days;
            navigationStepType = NavigationStepTypes.Day;
            this.radScheduler2.GetMonthView().WeekCount = DateHelper.GetMonthDisplayWeeks(dtStartMonth, this.radScheduler2.Culture.DateTimeFormat);
            break;
    }

    RadScheduler.NavigateToNextViewCommand.ExecuteCommand(this.radScheduler2, navigationStepType, navigationStep);
}

private void radSchedulerNavigator1_NavigateBackwardsClick(object sender, EventArgs e)

    int navigationStep = this.radSchedulerNavigator1.SchedulerNavigatorElement.NavigationStep;
