Drag and Drop Row Moving (Scheduler)

The ASP.NET Scheduler control supports drag and drop row moving.

The users can drag tree items to a new position in the tree (above, below, or as a child of the target node).

Read more about row moving.

Row Header Scrolling (Scheduler)

Use RowHeaderScrolling="true".

The width set using RowHeaderWidth will be enforced (even for RowHeaderWidthAutoFit="true") and a horizontal scrollbar will be added if necessary.

In this mode the splitter between row header and grid will be activated. The users can resize the row header width using drag and drop.

Read more about row header scrolling.

Row Header Hiding (Scheduler)

Use RowHeaderHideIconEnabled="true". This will display an icon in the upper-left corner of the grid that will let the users hide the row header.

Hidden row header:

Themes Updated (Scheduler)

• Drag and Drop Position Indicators
• Event Delete Icon
• Row moving
• Row header hiding icon

Storing Event End as Date (Scheduler)

An option to treat the event and as an end of that day (when it is stored as Date only).

The default behavior is to interpret the end date as an exact time point.

Use EventEndSpec="Date".

RowHeaderWidthAutoFit Optimizations (Scheduler)

It's now safe to keep it turned on even for large Resource trees.

Progressive Row Rendering (Scheduler)

Row rendering is optimized. Now the Scheduler can handle 10,000 resources without serious impact on performance.

Data Serialization Optimized (Scheduler)

The JSON protocol was optimized.
