Slot Selection Handler interferes with single Event Click Handler in Scheduler

[Bryan]

I*m using both the slot selection and a single click event handler in the same scheduler component:

<kendo-scheduler
            [kendoSchedulerBinding]="allEvents$ | async"
            (eventClick)="eventClickHandler($event)"
            kendoSchedulerSlotSelectable
            (slotSelectionChange)="onTimeSlotSelectionChange($event)"
            [resources]="resources"
            [selectedDate]="selectedDate"
            [(selectedViewIndex)]="selectedViewIndex"
            [eventClass]="getEventClass"
            (dateChange)="onDateChange($event)"
            [loading]="loading"
            showWorkHours="true"
            workDayStart="{{formatDateAsTime(businessStartDate)}}"
            workDayEnd="{{formatDateAsTime(businessEndDate)}}"
            style="height: 1050;"
        >
            <ng-template
                kendoSchedulerEventTemplate
                let-event="event"
                let-resources="resources"
            >
                <span class="{{ resources[0].customCssClass }}">{{formatEventText(event, resources[0])}}</span>
            </ng-template>
            <kendo-scheduler-day-view [eventHeight]="300"></kendo-scheduler-day-view>
            <kendo-scheduler-week-view></kendo-scheduler-week-view>
            <kendo-scheduler-month-view></kendo-scheduler-month-view>
    </kendo-scheduler>

 

I would expect when clicking on an existing event in the scheduler, only the eventClick handler would fire.  But both the eventClick handler AND the slotSelectionChange handler are firing in that case.  How do I prevent that?

Hi Bryan,

In deed it can be very inconvenient, but one can use some async setting of mutex variable in order to differentiate those - like in this stackblitz sample . Here slotSelectionChange execution is delayed by 20ms, while eventClick sets eventClicked = true to block slotSelectionChange and then schedules timeout function after 30ms to set it again to false in order to unblock for next selection change.

Please let us know it this approach will solve your case.

I think this will work.  Thanks for your help!
