I set the calendar CurrentTime in a timer component on the page but it does not update the displayed current time lines (TimeTable view) until I click on the calendar. Is there a way to have it update on the display each time my timer updates the value?

Call Calendar.repaint.

Hi Meppy,
Thank you again for the fast response. I could not find repaint but refresh works fine.

I also have a question - I am creating a production schedule and need to find free periods that meet the production run time requirement. I thought the Schedule.GetFreePeriod would work but it seems to only return the date not the date and start time of the free period. Is there a way to get the date and start time of a free period on a given date or later date?

Thanks,
John

Hi,

I was in error, referring to the Java version of the control. You should indeed use Calendar.Invalidate to refresh in .NET.

Schedule.GetFreePeriod should not return only dates. Are you sure your free period does not begin exactly at the start of a day? If this is not the case, can you save your schedule (by using Schedule.SaveTo, preferably in XML) and send it to me?

Regards,
Meppy

Hi Meppy,
You were correct. The production schedule starts at 7AM, so I needed to set the start date/time for the production date (e.g. 03/07/2017 07:00) and it did indeed return the result I expected. I also see that if it can not find the needed free period it returns 01/01/0001. That works great!

Is there anyway to get the largest free period in a date/time range?

Thank you,
John

Hi,

The 01/01/0001 date returned when no period is found is DateTime.MinValue if you need to test against it. We'll add a GetLargestFreePeriod method next week.

Hi,

Check out this build:

https://mindfusion.eu/_temp/MindFusion.Scheduling3.zip

It adds a new method - GetLargestFreePeriod - which will let you find the largest free interval in a specified time range.

Let me know if this helps.

Regards,
Meppy

Hi Meppy,
Sorry for my late response. It turns out I really need to get all free periods on a give date so I wrote code to do that.

Thanks,
John
