Show full day manually

[Kumeri]

Hi, 

in the workweekview when I have events with intervals outside of business hours it would be desirable that full day is shown by default. Is there is a way to trigger the show full day command from my side once i know there are events outside business hours?

Hi Kumeri,

In general, the described behavior could be achieved as follows:

• Subscribe to the dataBound event.
  
  
• Inside the dataBound event handler find current view range events and determine if their start or end time is outside of business hours.
  
  
• If the above rule is true, manually click() on the Scheduler's "Show Business Hours" button and hide it.

I have prepared a Dojo example, where the above functionality is implemented as follows:

dataBound: function(e) {
    var scheduler = e.sender;
    var view = this.view();

    if (!view.startTime || !view.endTime) {
        return;
    }

    var events = this.dataSource.expand(view.startDate(), view.endDate());

    var startTime = kendo.date.getMilliseconds(view.startTime());
    var endTime = kendo.date.getMilliseconds(view.endTime());
    var showPrev;
    var showNext;

    for (var idx = 0; idx < events.length; idx++) {
        if (events[idx].isAllDay) {
            continue;
        }

        if (kendo.date.getMilliseconds(events[idx].start) < startTime) {
            showPrev = true;
        }

        if (kendo.date.getMilliseconds(events[idx].end) > endTime &&
            endTime > startTime) {
            showNext = true;
        }
    }

    if(showPrev || showNext) {
        $(scheduler.wrapper.find(".k-scheduler-fullday .k-link")[0]).click();
        $(scheduler.wrapper.find(".k-scheduler-fullday .k-link")[0]).hide();
    }
}

Important to note is that in order for the above behavior to work, the Scheduler's "Show Business Hours" button has to be hidden. Otherwise, clicking on it will trigger the dataBound event again and the view state will not be changed.

I hope this helps.
