RadScheduleView set colors for every appointment/item

[Egbert]

Hi,

We are using the scheduler in an old asp.net app (see attachment).

How do we set the background, foreground and border color for every single appointment/item.

For example: An Appointment/item now has the following properties:

            var app1 = new Appointment()
            {
                Subject = "Front-End Meeting",
                Start = DateTime.Today.AddHours(9),
                End = DateTime.Today.AddHours(10)
                ForeColor = "Red",
                BackColor = "Blue",
                BorderColor = "Black"
            };

Thanks and best regards,
Egbert

Hello Egbert,

To achieve your requirement, you can create a custom class that derives from Appointment and define a new Brush property. Then, you can use the AppointmentStyleSelector of RadScheduleView to data bind the Background of the AppointmentItem visuals to the new Brush property in the custom appointment. You can see this approach shown in the attached project. I hope this helps.
