Show current time in timeline view

[Indranik]

I need to show a vertical line representing the current time vertically across the scheduler in timeline view.

Hello Indranik,

You can achieve this if you define a dummy resource type with one resource with no text. Then use the GroupBy property to group by Date and the DummyResouce that you have defined. Also set the other properties that are available for the Timeline view. Here is an example:

<TimelineView GroupBy="Date, DummyResource" GroupingDirection="Vertical" NumberOfSlots="8" SlotDuration="01:00" ColumnHeaderDateFormat="hh:mm" />

But the challenge is that I already have resourcetypes assigned to it. So giving a dummy resource would be out of scope. Now my requirement is I need along wth everything else, a thin line on the scheduler that would denote the current time to the user .
I will give the code for the radscheduler:

<

telerik:RadScheduler ID="RadScheduler1" runat="server" DataEndField="EndTime"

 

 

ShowViewTabs="false" Height="300px"

 

 

DataKeyField="ID" DataSourceID="ObjectDataSource1" SelectedView="TimeLineView"

 

 

GroupingDirection="Vertical" DataStartField="StartTime"

 

 

DataSubjectField="Subject" Width="943px"

 

 

GroupBy="Name" Skin="Web20" TimelineView-HeaderDateFormat="dddd MMMM dd yyyy"

 

 

ValidationGroup="RadScheduler1">

 

 

<TimelineView TimeLabelSpan="1" NumberOfSlots="8" SlotDuration="01:00" ColumnHeaderDateFormat="hh:mm" StartTime="08:00"/>

 

 

<ResourceTypes>

 

 

<telerik:ResourceType KeyField="ID" Name="Name" TextField="Name" ForeignKeyField="ResourceID" AllowMultipleValues="false"

 

 

DataSourceID="ObjectDataSource2"/>

 

 

</ResourceTypes>

 

 

</telerik:RadScheduler>

 

<

asp:ObjectDataSource ID="ObjectDataSource1" runat="server" DataObjectTypeName="AppointmentData"

 

 

DeleteMethod="Delete" InsertMethod="Insert" OldValuesParameterFormatString="original_{0}"

 

 

SelectMethod="GetAllAppointments" TypeName="XmlDataProvider" UpdateMethod="Update">

 

 

</asp:ObjectDataSource>

 

 

<asp:ObjectDataSource ID="ObjectDataSource2" runat="server" DataObjectTypeName="Resources" OldValuesParameterFormatString="original_{0}"

 

 

SelectMethod="GetAllResources" TypeName="XmlDataProvider"></asp:ObjectDataSource>
