schedule print capability

[Saumin]

hi,
i am using the scheduler in month view. I am just displaying the calendar and there is no interaction involved. i am looking to give the users print capability where they can click on a link, and are able to print the monthview. is this possible? if yes, can someone send me an example, or guide me?
I will really appreciate a quick response.

Thanks!
Saumin

Hello Saumin,

You can use the following script to print the whole page:

<a href="javascript:void(window.print())">print this page</a>

To hide any unnecessary HTML element you can use some CSS:

<style type="text/css" media="print">
    #div1
    {
       display: none;
    }
</style>

Hi Albert,
thanks for your response. I do have quite some html elements on this page. I just want to print the scheduler. The problem that i have is that some of the html elements are coming from the header(user control), some of them are coming from the master page. Is  there any other way where i can just print the scheduler?

Thanks!

I know that this posting is old but is there anybody having the solution for this problem?

[John]

Anybody???

[illumination]

I gave up for the answer on this. So what I told my user when they want to print the calendar that to highlight the calendar and click the print preview on IE and choose as selected on screen option then print the calendar. I hope telerik will come up with print function for their radscheduler.

Hello Lina, guys,

Please find attached a sample solution that demonstrates the printing of the Scheduler using a print stylesheet.

Unfortunately, there is no way to specify a specific part of the page that should be printed (e.g. all parts that shouldn't be printed must be hidden, as Albert already said).

Let me know if you stumble upon problems with this solution.

All the best,

Unfortunately that won't work for me as I won't know who may be printing it.

I guess I'll have to create a new page with only the scheduler on it with a window.print in the onload event.

I really like Telerik but sometimes they frustrate the "heck" out of me :)

[Bryan Hughes]

I agree.  I have a page that has several Telerik control on the page, so window.print() will not work even with style sheet elements.  I did not think of this until one of my users pointed it out.  Now it seems quite obvious that the scheduler should have this functionality.

No action on this thread for a year or so.  Did adding the print functionality to the scheduler ever happen?

[Veronica]

Hi Jonathan,

Yes, we've planned the export to PDF (e.g. print functionality) and it will be ready soon. However it will not come for the upcomming Release.

Great with PDF support, can you give any closer time estimate?

Sincerely, Thomas

[Veronica]

Hi Thomas,

Unfortunately I can not give you any exact time estimate. However we will do our best to implement it for the next Service Pack.

Can you give us a good news regarding the export to PDF functionality ? or at least a new time estimate ? 

[Veronica]

Hi Stephane,

The PDF Export for the RadScheduler is already planned and it will be ready for the Q2 Release.

Is this still in the schedule..  there is no mention of it in the beta release notes;
http://www.telerik.com/products/aspnet-mvc/whats-new/release-history/q2-2011-beta-version-2011-2-629.aspx

[Brian]

I also raised this issue many months ago and am eager to see it implemented - hopefully it's implement in the Q2 release?

[Thomas]

I really hope it's in Q2, been looking forward to this feature for a long time now.

Sincerely,

Thomas

Hi Thomas,

Thank you for your interest. You can view the export to PDF feature at the online demos -
http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/scheduler/examples/pdfexport/defaultcs.aspx

I look forward to finding out your feedback on it.

All the best,

Hi, awesome news! Two problems:

- in the demo I just export a blank page.
- Will the export to PDF from a RadScheduler using webservice binding work? My guess is not as the PDF is generated on the server side before any call to the webservice is made. Is there a workaround?

[Peter]

Hi Jose,

Unfortunately, your guess is correct - PDF export will not work with Web Service binding mode and there is no workaround for this. Please, accept our apologies for this limitation of the control.

Kind regards, Peter
