[Solved] Using CustomAttributeControl for Scheduler

[Swapnil Baokar]

Hi,

I want to use a combobox and radio buttons to display and select custom attributes in the Scheduler Advanced Edit form. I want to fill the combo box with values depending upong the selection of the radio buttons.

Any ideas / examples on how to go about this?

Thanks

Hi Swapnil,

You can use AdvancedInsertTemplate and AdvancedEditTemplate forms as in the Templates online example obviously, but the trick is how to find the combobox in the event handler of the the radio button. Well, it is not that complex actually. Please, consider the following example:

<AdvancedInsertTemplate>
    <asp:RadioButton ID="RadioButton2" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True" OnCheckedChanged="RadioButton2_CheckedChanged" />
    <telerik:RadComboBox ID="RadComboBox1" runat="server">
        <Items>
            <telerik:RadComboBoxItem runat="server" Text="RadComboBoxItem1" />
            <telerik:RadComboBoxItem runat="server" Text="RadComboBoxItem2" />
            <telerik:RadComboBoxItem runat="server" Text="RadComboBoxItem3" />
        </Items>
        <CollapseAnimation Duration="200" Type="OutQuint" />
    </telerik:RadComboBox>
</AdvancedInsertTemplate>

protected void RadioButton2_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    RadioButton rb1 = (RadioButton)sender;
    RadComboBox cb1 = (RadComboBox) rb1.NamingContainer.FindControl("RadComboBox1");
    cb1.SelectedItem.Text = DateTime.Now.ToString();
}

If you want to preserve the functionality of the advanced form related to resources and recurrent appointments, you can use the Customizing the Advanced Template example.
