dbiCalendarWPF 1.0 launched

Wed, 06 Jul 2011 16:45:36 GMT

Month, week and day views in dbiCalendarWPF.

Three full featured WPF scheduling controls wrapped into one.

dbiCalendarWPF provides appointment scheduling and calendar presentations for WPF application development. dbiCalendarWPF combines three direct edit controls; a Multi Column Day/Resource View, a Month Calendar View and a Week Calendar View, into one compact, feature rich, royalty free WPF control.

Features

Multi Column Day/Resource View
Month Calendar View
Week Calendar View

dbiCalendarWPF offers developers the right set of tools for managing appointments, contacts, locations, tasks and user/owner drawn columns with direct inline editing, built-in context menus, and full data integration including multi-level grouping and sorting.

Data Integration
dbiCalendarWPF has been designed for data flexibility giving developers the freedom to integrate and capture data as they need to. Connect to any data source from XML to Oracle to DB2 to whatever your data repository requirements are.

Many to Many relationships
dbiCalendarWPF expertly manages one-to-many and many-to-many relationships. It's not uncommon for one appointment, a conference call for instance, to appear in many locations, have many contacts and many tasks associated with that activity. dbiCalendarWPF is the right solution for managing and presenting multi - relational scheduling requirements. DBI component solutions have been used in the Healthcare field for fifteen years, and it's common for dental practice solutions for example to use DBI Scheduling components to help manage the multi - task aspects of appointment and resource scheduling.

Variable Time Intervals
Life doesn't happen in nice even 15, 30 or 60 minute intervals. Life happens around the clock in any combination and permutation of time. Onsite service personnel are scheduled when they're needed, Golf Course Tee Times are scheduled on 7 minute intervals and components of a dentist appointment may range from 2 minutes to 75 minutes. Being able to present WPF schedules in increments from 1 minute to 60 minutes and any combination in between is only natural.

Direct appointment creation and appointment editing
dbiCalendarWPF is designed to allow an appointment to be created directly upon selection of a time cell - just start typing. Also, an appointment can be modified directly upon selection. With the click of a Right mouse button modify the properties of an appointment directly through the built-in context menus, for: Date, Contact, Location, Task, View or a custom programmed menu option. dbiCalendarWPF does away with the need for an appointment dialogue with its built in Context Menus. An appointment dialogue is included should you need one. Enhance your User's Scheduling Experience with direct modification of appointment properties using the built-in context menus. Add / Edit appointments, Contacts, Locations and Tasks without ever seeing an edit dialogue.

Details of What's New in v4.0:

Schedule Notes
Notes are images/icons that can be attached to a schedule item. Their purpose is to alert the user to an item for that schedule. They are fixed in place and may not be moved with the mouse. Schedule Notes can either be fixed to the schedule so they are always visible, or they can be set to a specific date and time. Notes support tool tips, and respond to mouse over and click events.

Line Arrows
Line arrows are directional arrows that appear at the left and/or right side of the schedule to indicate other time bars that exist before or after the current view in the schedule. Their default appearance is a solid colored triangle, which can be replaced with custom images. They respond to mouse over and click events.

New methods:
TimeBarsBeforeSchedule and TimeBarsAfterSchedule are used in conjuction with Line Arrows to determine what time bars exist outside of the current view.
ScrollToDateTime method allows the schedule presentation to be changeed, bringing timebars into view. This makes it easy to navigate to other time bars by clicking on a line arrow.

New Properties:

AllowHorzMoves - Determines if time bars can be moved horizontally with the mouse
AllowNewBars - Determines if new time bars can be created with the mouse.
AllResizeBars - Determines if time bars can be resized with the mouse.
GuideDashPattern - For setting default dash patterns for all Guide Lines.
GuideLineWidth - For setting new default widths for all Guide Lines.
ValuePoint Event has 2 new properties - Font and ForeColor. An override to the default values.
TimeBarMouseEnter and TimeBarMouseLeave events. Two new properties that allow the developer to determine where a time bar action took place.
TimeBarsAt : Accepts a mouse point and returns a collection of all time bars at a given point.
dbiScheduleObject contains a new property called MajorTimeLine allows for the presentation (or not) of a full vertical line between major time segments on the Time Scale Ruler.
If a line item is marked as read only, vertically dragging a time bar is not allowed. Previously a drag motion would allow the timebar to show in the drag and then snap back on the release. Now, a timebar cannot be dragged when set to read only.
ItemMouse Over - an event that now reports when the cursor is over a guideline.
