Reoccurring Appointment Icon in Displayview

[CMSC_345]

When I define a reoccurring appointment and save it, it doesn't have the reoccurring icon in the displayview. How do I adorn my reoccurring appointments with the little circular symbol?

[CMSC_345]

I figured out why. Now I have to figure out the best method to fix it.

I am using the <AppointmentTemplate> to customize the displayview. I guess I have to add a <asp:image> control referencing whatever image I want to use for a recurring appointment.

Can anyone comment on if this is the best approach? Also does anyone know where I can find one of Telerik's recurring images?

[CMSC_345]

Well I think I've figured it out. I'll leave my workaround here for anyone else with the same issue.

I placed an <asp:image> in the <AppointmentTemplate> and set its visibility property in the RadScheduler_AppointmentCreated event. Here is a code snippet:

        // show recurrence symbol when necessary
        if (e.Appointment.RecurrenceState != Telerik.Web.UI.RecurrenceState.NotRecurring)
        {
            Image templateImage = (Image)e.Container.FindControl("recurrenceImage");
            templateImage.Visible = true;
        }

If anyone has something better please feel free to comment.

Is this the best way to accomplish this?  Has anyone else figured out a better way?  Where can I find the Telerik recurrence icon?

How Do I access the build in recurring image

[Peter]

Hi guys,

You could replace or remove the recurrence image using the .rsAptRecurrence class that is applied to it. For example:

.rsAptRecurrence
{
    display: none !important;
}

I am not sure though if this is what you are looking for.

I was looking for the CSS  rsAptRecurrence

Sort of the other way around.  I implemented a custom class that overwrote the recurrence image.  How do I access the built in recurrence image and have it show as part of my custom class?

    <AppointmentTemplate>
        <div class="rsCustomAppointmentContainer hand">
            <%#Eval("Subject")%><br />
            <em><asp:Label ID="lblLocation" runat="server" Text="Label" /></em>
        </div>
    </AppointmentTemplate>

Hello Matt,

CMSC_345 posted a solution on Mar 22, 2008 which should work fine in your case too:

"...I placed an <asp:image> in the <AppointmentTemplate> and set its visibility property in the RadScheduler_AppointmentCreated event..."
