Choose one of the available resolutions: Scheduler.TimeResolution:
Number of columns for a unit of time: Scheduler.NumerOfCols:
Cell size setting properties: Scheduler.CellWidth:
,
Scheduler.RowHeight:
Hiding vertical or horizontal scrollbars:
,
Both time period and resolution of time presented in the
scheduler depends on values of two properties: Scheduler.TimeResolution
and Scheduler.NumberOfCols. Multiplying a unit of time and a number of
columns determines an interval time displayed. Additionally, using a Scheduler.FirstDateTime
property an origin and a Scheduler.LastDateTime property the end of time
axis can be set. Changing a Scheduler.LastDateTime property you force recalculation
of a Scheduler.NumberOfCols property. Buttons going to either next or previous
period of time change origin of a time axis in a scheduler. Time period is not changed.
However, a number of columns could change. A situation when a scheduler shows a
whole month (or months) causes changing the number of columns. Then changing to
next or previous period of time is performed in such a way that the same number
of full months are displayed.
Size of a time unit cell and row height can be set. A Scheduler.CellWidth
property determines width of a time unit cell. A Scheduler.RowHeight property
determines height of all rows in a control.
The size of whole scheduler control depends on assigned to the scheduler control
both properties: Scheduler.Width and Scheduler.Height. If the
content is bigger than specified size, the scrollbars allow user to scroll currently
hidden part of the grid. However, you can hide horizontal or vertical or both scrollbars.
If the vertical scrollbar was hidden, the height of the scheduler depends on number
of visible rows. Similarly, if the horizontal scrollbar was hidden, the width of
the scheduler depends on number of the grid columns and width of the particulars
cells.
Notice, many scheduler properties, especially appearance and behavior properties,
are not serialized between particularly requests. Therefore, if you initialize these
properties from the page code, keep in mind you need do it every request, regardless
of the Page.IsPostback property.
However, if you use standard properties setting with helping design mode and properties
window, don’t worry, the automatically generated by the ASP.NET interpreter code
does it for you. So, you just choose proper property value in the property grid,
that’s all.
Notice, if you need to set or reset any behaviour or appearance flag you
should use the & and | bitwise operators, like here:
[C#]
for setting: Sch.ViewOptions |= SchedulerViewOptions.HideHorizontalScrollbar;
for resetting: Sch.ViewOptions &= ~SchedulerViewOptions.HideHorizontalScrollbar;
[VB]
for setting: Sch.ViewOptions = Sch.ViewOptions Or SchedulerViewOptions.HideHorizontalScrollbar
for resetting: Sch.ViewOptions = Sch.ViewOptions And Not SchedulerViewOptions.HideHorizontalScrollbar
Operation of this sample page is very simple. After setting the fields below a scheduler
are set, a request to a server (postback) is generated
and Scheduler object properties initialized with values entered in fields
using a OnLoad() server method.

For demonstration purposes all appointments displayed on a calendar are stored in
ASP.NET session objects, so original values are restored immediately after a new
session object is created.
A list of appointments and resources is intialized every time a new session is started.
