Scheduler resource cell customization

[Matúš]

Hello,

I would like to ask if it is possible to customize reasource cell in Timeline view in Scheduler control. I would like to show user specific icon and multiline text,

I found similar question from 2020 (https://www.telerik.com/forums/scheduler-customization-questions), did you already implement such a  functionality?

Thanks

Hello, Matúš,

Thank you for the provided screenshot.

I understand that you want to customize the group header cell. Is this correct? If this is the case, you can set the `text` of the resource item to HTML elements and render multiline text or an icon depending on what you need. Moreover, to customize the group header cell's CSS styles, you can set a className to HTML content, get the reference in a `React.useEffect`, and add a custom class to its parent which is the header cell:

In addition, we have a feature request to implement this feature but it is currently in an unplanned stage. I added a vote on your behalf to increase its priority, you can track it here:

I hope this helps, but please let me know if you have any further questions.

Hi, Matúš,

Yes, it is possible as this feature was added in version `4.2.0`.

Basically, you can provide a custom Form Editor and render the desired content of your choice:

Please check let above example, and let me know if you have any further questions.

Hi Wissam,

thanks for answer, but probably my question was not clear. I know that it is possible to change editors in form, but I would like to customize resource cell in the scheduler timeline view (see attached image). Is this possible to add an icon or set multiline text?

Regards,

Matus
