Hi,

I have my own Appointment class (derived from MindFusion.Scheduling.Appointment).
I'm using Theme Light.

I'd like to have the item background drawn with the color my Appointment class holds:
public System.Windows.Media.Brush Background { get; set; }

I'm afraid something like that won't work:

<planner:Calendar.ItemSettings>
    <planner:ItemSettings>
        <planner:ItemSettings.CalendarStyle>
            <planner:CalendarStyle Background="{Binding ???}" />
            </planner:ItemSettings.CalendarStyle>
    </planner:ItemSettings>
</planner:Calendar.ItemSettings> 

Same question applies to Xamarin.Scheduling, how to do it there?

Regards,
Heli

Hi,

I guess, custom item viewer is something like in the sample "Scheduling.CustomItemTemplates"?
Maybe you can provide me the app.xaml contents like
<Style TargetType="{x:Type local:MyAppointmentPresenter}">
but based on Theme Light design.

And is there a sample for the second option, custom drawing, too?

Regards,
Heli

Hi,

thank you for this sample, that's great!

So, there is a much simplier way to set the appointment item background color depending on data stored in MyAppointment object?
Most probably I think too complicated, but I don't get it, sorry.
How can I achieve a data dependent appointment/item background the easiest way? Suitable for WPF and Xamarin.Scheduling.
Can you create a small sample, please?

At this point, I'd like to thank you for your great support.
You helped me a lot so far!

Hi,

now I got your point.

I applied this idea to my application by holding a reference to the Calendar object within MyAppointment (data backing class). An event notifies MyAppointment about possible reference changes.

So, whenever a data property changes which should influence the UI (i.e. background color change), I set the style as you showed in the example within the MyAppointment property setter.

That works for me.
Thank you!

Heli
