Foreign Calendar Display: different weekday
posted

I application need to display a foreign calender which have different weekend days (Friday and Saturday rather than Saturday and Sunday) also I should be able to set holidays which occurs every year on same day like Christmas day 25th of December and regular holidays. I am thinking to using the ultraMonthViewSingle to display the month and using ultraCalendarInfo and ultraCalendarLook to control the settings. I have no requirement to add appointment, this is very simple calender display can someone please suggest is this the right choice of  controls for the application and how to accomplish the above goals.

Q)How to set different weekend days?

Q)How to set recurring holidays (e.g. Christmas day)

Q) Disable appointment etc. from the control as I am displaying just the calendar

Q) Set the background color of Holiday day date

Q)Bind the holidays collection from Database

    Maybe you could set the properties:

    ultraCalendarInfo1.DaysOfWeek[DayOfWeek.Thursday].IsWorkDay = false;

    ultraCalendarInfo1.DaysOfWeek[DayOfWeek.Friday].IsWorkDay = false;

    ultraCalendarInfo1.FirstDayOfWeek = Infragistics.Win.UltraWinSchedule.FirstDayOfWeek.Saturday;

    ultraCalendarLook1.DaysOfWeekLook[Infragistics.Win.UltraWinSchedule.DayOfWeekEnum.Thursday].Appearance.BackColor = Color.Red;

    ultraCalendarLook1.DaysOfWeekLook[Infragistics.Win.UltraWinSchedule.DayOfWeekEnum.Friday].Appearance.BackColor = Color.Red;

    Maybe one possible approach could be if you are using Holidays collection of your UltraCalendarInfo. For exmaple:

    ultraCalendarInfo1.Holidays.Add(Convert.ToDateTime("24/12/2012"), "Christmas holiday");

    ultraCalendarInfo1.Holidays.Add(Convert.ToDateTime("25/12/2012"), "Christmas holiday");

     

     

    ultraCalendarLook1.HolidayAppearance.BackColor = Color.Yellow;

    You could set property AutoAppointmentDialog = false or you could handle

    ultraCalendarInfo1_BeforeAppointmentAdded() event and include the code:

    private void ultraCalendarInfo1_BeforeAppointmentAdded(object sender, Infragistics.Win.UltraWinSchedule.CancelableAppointmentEventArgs e)

    {

        e.Cancel = true;

    }

      ultraCalendarLook1.HolidayAppearance.BackColor = Color.Yellow;

    You could used

    ultraCalendarInfo1.DataBindingsForAppointments

    Please take a look in our online documentation. There are similar sample: http://help.infragistics.com/Help/NetAdvantage/WinForms/2011.2/CLR2.0/html/WinGanttView_DataBinding_Support_for_WinGanttView.html 

    also you could take a look in our sample browser. There are sample "Appointments" under "Calendar and scheduling"

    Let me know if you have any questions
