Unfortunatelly I cannot think of any way this could be accomplished with the current version of Planner.NET. We are going to implement this feature however and and I will post a link when it is ready.

Oh thanks I'll give that version a try.

As a work around I used the GetDateAt method to determine what was the date range visible and then I looped through the appointments myself to get a rough idea of what was on the screen.

Hi,

2 Questions for you:

1. I'm trying to use getVisibleItems. In my app I have hotel rooms listed down the y-axis and dates across the x-axis. If I scroll to the right and down  the left so that some items are now not visible. But then I select an item that IS now currently visible and call the get visible items, it does not apeear in the collection. I am doing something wrong or has this been fixed in v2.

2. We have a licence for 4.1, how do I get 4.2. I think you emailed it to me recently but I know longer have the email, can I download it?

Regards,
Simon

My colleague just informed me that we have sent an upgrade to Daniel Wood on March, 7th. Can you please check with him and let me know whether you have received it?

Meppy,

I am using version 4.2 now but I'm still experiencing problems with (or not understanding properly  GetVisibleItems.

Heres the scenario, in my application this is what happens:-

1. Clear the contents of the calendar control
2. Populate the location collection (y- axis)
3. Populate the contents of the calendar
4. Scroll several screen widths to the right
5. Scroll several screens down
6. Highlight an item in the calendar
7. Double click it, bring up a new form, do some work and close the new form.

At this point I need to clear the calendar and repopulate it because other users may have added/deleted/amended/moved other items. But I want the user to still see the item they are working on still highlighted in the calendar.

Currently I'm calling EnsureVisible which works but causes the selected item to appear in the top left of the control. So it looks to the user that item has "jumped" toi te top left. I really want to check if the item is currently visible and just clear the ItemSelection collection,  add the item to the ItemSelection collection so the user sees the selected item exactly where they double clicked on it.

Is this possible ?

Regards,
Simon
