Using advanced form control, Custom Attributes do not get serialized

[John]

Hi,

I am trying to implement an advanced Edit/Insert form.  I used your example on this website from the demos.  I can set Custom Attibutes with no problem so that they appear on the form, but getting them to save in an insert or edit is not working.  When I change these values, I can see them in a Javascript Debugger correctly that the attributes are set with my new value. 

So, when I click the Advanced Form to save the changes and and in the _saveClicked handler, it calls this._scheduler.updateAppointment(apt), the appointment passed in "apt" has my custom attributes.  However, when it goes to do the postback, the appointment returned from this._getSerializableAppointment(j), does not have any Custom Attributes.  It appears they are not set.

So, when I try to access e.ModifiedAppointment.Attributes["MyAttibute"] from the below method

protected void RadScheduler1_AppointmentDataBound(object sender, SchedulerEventArgs e)

It is never set with the updated value.

What I am missing? If I just add Custom Attributes to the scheduler 
and do not create a separate Advanced Form control, I can see the update value in 
e.ModifiedAppointment.Attributes["MyAttibute"].

Thanks in advance.  -John

            this._scheduler.insertAppointment(apt);

        else

            his._scheduler.updateAppointment

        if (this._isInsert)

            this._scheduler.insertAppointment(apt);

        else

            this._scheduler.updateAppointment(apt);

        if (this._isInsert)

            this._scheduler.insertAppointment(apt);

        else

          

        if (this._isInsert)

            this._scheduler.insertAppointment(apt);

        else

            this._scheduler.updateAppointment(apt);

 t_scheduler.updateAppointment(ap

Hi John,

Please accept my apologies for the late reply.

Have you set bindable property for the custom attribute in the code-behind of the Advanced Form? Here's an example:

[Bindable(BindableSupport.Yes, BindingDirection.TwoWay)]
    public string MyAttribute
    {
        get
        {
            return MyAttribute.Text;
        }

        set
        {
            MyAttribute.Text = value;
        }
    }

Also make sure that you've set the property in the AdvancedInsert_  and AdvancedEditTemplate:

<AdvancedEditTemplate>
                <scheduler:AdvancedForm runat="server" ID="AdvancedEditForm1" Mode="Edit" Subject='<%# Bind("Subject") %>'
                    MyAttribute='<%# Bind("MyAttribute") %>' Start='<%# Bind("Start") %>' End='<%# Bind("End") %>'
                    RecurrenceRuleText='<%# Bind("RecurrenceRule") %>' Reminder='<%# Bind("Reminder") %>'
                    AppointmentColor='<%# Bind("AppointmentColor") %>' UserID='<%# Bind("User") %>' />
</AdvancedEditTemplate>

If this doesn't help - can you please send me the full code so I can inspect it and help you?

Thank you!

All the best,
