RADScheduler Insert form start time interval--15 min

[Pavan padavala]

Hi,

I am working on RadScheduler and we need 15 min interval in the starttime and end time when creating new Appointment.
by default it is 30 min.
1.) Is it possible to change this? If yes how?
2.) Also, I have a custom resources that can be selected in the drop down below. Is it possible to put a deafult resource when user enters this screen?

Pls see the attached file.

Thanks In Advance.

Hello Pavan,

The code that follows will help you achieve both requirements:

protected void RadScheduler1_FormCreated(object sender, SchedulerFormCreatedEventArgs e)
    {
        if ((e.Container.Mode == SchedulerFormMode.AdvancedEdit) || (e.Container.Mode == SchedulerFormMode.AdvancedInsert))
        {
            RadTimePicker startTime = e.Container.FindControl("StartTime") as RadTimePicker;
            startTime.TimeView.Interval = new TimeSpan(0, 15, 0);
            startTime.TimeView.DataList.DataSource = null;
            startTime.DataBind();

            RadTimePicker endTime = e.Container.FindControl("EndTime") as RadTimePicker;
            endTime.TimeView.Interval = new TimeSpan(0, 15, 0);
            endTime.TimeView.DataList.DataSource = null;
            endTime.DataBind();
            if (e.Container.Mode == SchedulerFormMode.AdvancedInsert)
            {
                RadComboBox resCombo = (RadComboBox)e.Container.FindControl("ResRoom");
                resCombo.SelectedIndex = 1;
            }
        }
    }

'Room' is the name of the resource type added to RadScheduler. You need to modify the code with your actual resource name.

Hi,
I have a question about the Start time and Endtime in Insert/Edit mode. If I select StartTime to be 1 month after today, is there anyway to make the EndTime automatically change to 1 month after.
For example: by default as I edit an appointment:
- Start time: 3/17/2011, 9:30 AM.    End Time: 3/17/2011, 10:30 AM
As I change the Start time to 4/17/2011, time x, the End time should be automatically changed to 4/17/2011, x + 1 hour.

Kind regards,
Hai Tran

Hello Hai,

Thank you for this question.

Here is one possible solution for this requirement:

<script type="text/javascript">
      function OnDateSelected(sender, args) {
          var endDatePickerId = document.getElementById("HiddenField1").value;
          var endDatePicker = $find(endDatePickerId);
          endDatePicker.set_selectedDate(args.get_newDate())
      }
  </script>
  <asp:HiddenField ID="HiddenField1" runat="server" />
  <telerik:RadScheduler runat="server" ID="RadScheduler1" OnFormCreated="RadScheduler1_FormCreated"
      StartEditingInAdvancedForm="true" StartInsertingInAdvancedForm="true">
  </telerik:RadScheduler>

protected void RadScheduler1_FormCreated(object sender, SchedulerFormCreatedEventArgs e)
   {
       if (e.Container.Mode == SchedulerFormMode.AdvancedEdit || e.Container.Mode == SchedulerFormMode.AdvancedInsert)
       {
           RadDatePicker startDate = e.Container.FindControl("StartDate") as RadDatePicker;
           startDate.ClientEvents.OnDateSelected = "OnDateSelected";
           RadDatePicker endDate = e.Container.FindControl("EndDate") as RadDatePicker;
           HiddenField1.Value = endDate.ClientID;

       }
   }

Thank you so much for your solution. It works perfectly.
I found that when I changed the date on the top of my scheduler, the 2 calendars on the side did not change. They should be synchronized with the selected date of the scheduler. May you show me how to do it?

King regards,

Hi Hai,

I don't quite understand what you mean. Can you elaborate and send us a screen capture to illustrate the requirement?

Hi, 
I have to do the same thing, but in the Scheduler WeekView I was able to Change the time interval (See attachment), but is there any way to change the Time Format in the Side bar to show the minutes.
And have something like this :
8:00 am
8:30 am
9:00 am
9:30 am

Instead of :
8 am      
8 am
9 am
9 am

Thank you,

Marc

Hi Marc,

Please, try the following RadScheduler settings -

HoursPanelTimeFormat="HH:mm tt"
MinutesPerRow="15"

I use your code but I got an error to set Interval from code:
"Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control."

protected void PatientScheduler_FormCreated(object sender, SchedulerFormCreatedEventArgs e)
    {

protected void PatientScheduler_FormCreated(object sender, SchedulerFormCreatedEventArgs e)
    {
        RadTimePicker startTime = (RadTimePicker)e.Container.FindControl("StartTime");
        RadTimePicker endTime = (RadTimePicker)e.Container.FindControl("EndTime");
        startTime.TimeView.Interval = endTime.TimeView.Interval = new TimeSpan(0, Convert.ToInt32(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["Interval"]), 0);
        startTime.DataBind();
        endTime.DataBind();
}

Hello shahab,

 
Would you please elaborate what are you trying to achieve with the code posted because it is not quite clear from the explanation provided?

"Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control."

I got mentioned error when call    endTime.DataBind(); (It is your solution to the problem)

[Plamen]

Hi shahab,

 
It looks like the Convert.ToInt32(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["Interval"]) in your code is breaking this functionality. You can refer to this help topic where in the Change the start time picker options section is described how we recommend to achieve such customization.
