Show multiple (narrowed) appointments in UltraMonthViewSingle
posted

Hey there,

i got (hopefully) a pretty easy problem. After a lot of research in this forum i found nothing that answers my question. 

How i can show multiple appointments in the UltraMonthViewsingle Control? Clearly, when i increase the size of the control, the more appointments are visible per day. 

calendar without creationfilter

But i want to keep the size of the control and smaller the appointment heights. I managed this with the CreationFilter interface. Code:


 public class MonthViewSingleAppointmentCreationFilter : IUIElementCreationFilter

    {

        public void AfterCreateChildElements(UIElement parent)

        {

     

            if (parent.GetType() == typeof(SingleDayAppointmentUIElement))

            {

                var appoitment = (SingleDayAppointmentUIElement)parent;

                if (appoitment != null)

                    appoitment.Rect = new Rectangle(appoitment.Rect.X, appoitment.Rect.Y, appoitment.Rect.Width, 13);

            }

            else if (parent.GetType() == typeof(MultiDayAppointmentUIElement))

            {

                var appoitment = (MultiDayAppointmentUIElement)parent;

                if (appoitment != null)                

                    appoitment.Rect = new Rectangle(appoitment.Rect.X, appoitment.Rect.Y, appoitment.Rect.Width, 13);

            }

        }

        public bool BeforeCreateChildElements(UIElement parent)

        {

            return false;

        }

    }

The result is following:

calendar with creationfilter

Clearly you can see, theres a lot of space for more appointments. How i can move them together? The  A similar problem is shown in this post http://www.infragistics.com/community/forums/t/86148.aspx  but i found no answer for me... 

I hope you can help me once more again!

    Hello Manfred,

    I have reviewed the CreationFilter logic that was implemented here to reduce appointment size. However, removing the extra space between these appointments is a very complex thing to achieve. This involves looping through all DayUIElements and looping through every appointment in them and calculating its rect position based on which the next appointment location has to be set.

    After examining removing space between the appointments in UltraMonthViewSingle, this has been determined to be a new product idea.
