I am using the scheduler with ASP.NET MVC. I set the timezone value to "Est/UTC" yet the start and end DateTime values are always using "Utc" as the "Kind". I have also tried by NOT setting the timezone value. I have been looking through these posts for the past couple of hours and found nothing that works. I want the DateTime values that get passed back through the controller to tell me the correct local time for that user or the correct "adjusted" value in UTC. To repeat, I am getting the correct local time but reported as UTC. That means a 5pm event gets saved as a noon event for someone in EST.

Is there some setting I am missing? This seems like it should be obvious but I am stuck.

in controller.cs

public ActionResult Schedule()

{

var now = DateTime.Now;

ViewBag.StartTime = new DateTime(now.Year, now.Month, now.Day, 7, 0, 0, DateTimeKind.Local);

ViewBag.TimeZone = "Etc/UTC";

return View();

}

in view.cshtml

@(Html.Kendo().Scheduler<Kendo.Mvc.Examples.Models.Scheduler.TaskViewModel>()

.Name("scheduler")

.Date(DateTime.Now)

.StartTime((DateTime)ViewBag.StartTime)

.Timezone((string)ViewBag.TimeZone)

.AllDaySlot(false)

.Editable(e =>

{

e.Create(true);

e.Destroy(true);

e.Update(true);

})

.Height(590)

.Views(views =>

{

views.DayView();

views.WeekView(v => v.Selected(true));

views.MonthView();

views.AgendaView();

})

.DataSource(d => d

.Model(m =>

{

m.Id(f => f.TaskID);

m.Field(f => f.TaskID);

m.Field(f => f.Title);

m.Field(f => f.ProviderId);

m.Field(f => f.Start);

m.Field(f => f.StartTimezone);

m.Field(f => f.EndTimezone);

m.Field(f => f.Description);

m.Field(f => f.RecurrenceID);

m.Field(f => f.RecurrenceRule);

m.Field(f => f.RecurrenceException);

m.Field(f => f.OwnerID);

m.Field(f => f.IsAllDay);

})

.Read(read => read.Action("Read", "Scheduler").Data("additionalData"))

.Create(create => create.Action("Create", "Scheduler").Data("additionalData"))

.Update(update => update.Action("Update", "Scheduler"))

.Destroy(destroy => destroy.Action("Destroy", "Scheduler"))

.ServerOperation(true)

)

timezone always utc
