Zoom Calendar in ResourceView

Is there any way that you can zoom into the Calendar component in ResourceView for a detailed view? I have work performed from e.g. 8 AM to 17 PM. Now I want to see what exactly happened between 10 AM and 12 PM. When I set the Start and End Times, it does not zoom, but rather cuts away all other times and I am left with only the time 10-12 but still the same size as on the "main view". On a zoom, I would like to see the detailed view the same size as if I am viewing 8-17h on the main view.

Hi,

There is no easy way to achieve this. You can play around with the ResourceViewSettings.TimelineScale property as demonstrated in the attached sample. To test zooming in the sample, click the 'set' button. More sophisticated (and complicated) way would be to adjust the view resolution, i.e. set different view unit and unit count, based on the specified interval.

Regards,
Meppy

Thanks for the reply.

Are you guys planning to add a feature like this into the control?

Regards

We will consider adding this feature to the next release depending on how complex it turns out to be. We have similar functionality in our DataViews components, we will try to port it here.

Hi,

Check out this version of the control:

https://mindfusion.eu/_temp/MindFusion.Scheduling.trial2.zip

The ResourceViewSettings class exposes a new property - EnableCollisions, which can be used to turn off item collision detection in Resource view, similarly to the same property in Timetable. In addition the Calendar class has a new method - SetViewport (the name is subject to change), which can be used to set the visible time interval in a Resource view and optionally change the view resolution to better accommodate the displayed interval.

Any feedback is appreciated.

Regards,
Meppy
