Select a Date Range In Week View Component

Hi

Is it possible to select a date range in the week view calender component and have the start and end of the selection exposed as date properties of the component something similar to Google calender where you can highlight a date range and the start and end date is selected automatically

Thanks

You could accomplish this, albeit without the highlighting of the selection. It would involve a mouse pressed event and a mouse released event and the use of pressing the alt, ctrl, or shift keys while you move the mouse.

Let’s use the ctrl key in this example:
On mouse pressed check to see if the ctrl key is pressed. If true then store the hover time and date to a property.
On mouse released check to see if the ctrl key is pressed. If true then take the current hover time and date along with the stored originating time and date, determine which is the starting point and then pass those into a popup window where you can enter the rest of the information about your event and create it.

Hope this helps.

Hi Dave

This will work for what I need now but it would be nice if rows could be highlighted while making selection. Would it be possible to get this added as a feature request for a release in the future

Thanks
