MindFusion Planner .net by MindFusion Group
Add calendar and scheduling functionality to your .NET applications. Planner.NET is a calendar and scheduling component for the .NET framework that supports yearly, monthly, weekly and daily schedule views as well as recurrent appointments. Each view provides a distinct layout of the time cells and can display events such as appointments and meetings. The timetable view displays a day's schedule where the columns represent dates, locations, tasks or contacts, and the rows represent hours or minute intervals. Planner.NET is royalty free. Source Code is available. VB.NET and C# samples included. Visual Studio .NET, VS2005 and VS2008 compatible.
Overview
Planner.NET provides your applications with a rich set of calendar and scheduling features. With Planner.NET you can present task and appointments information during different time periods (hours, days, weeks and months) as well as recurrent appointments or show all engagements at a specific day or several consequent days. Planner.NET can display a schedule in several view types, such as:
A range of months, displaying several months in a grid, each of the months displaying its days in a smaller grid
A single month view, displaying the days of a month and allowing scrolling to previous or next month
A range of weeks, displaying days in a grid in which the days of a week occupy a single row
A range of days, displaying a single day on each row or column
A timetable view, displaying the allotment of resources to distinct hours of a day. The columns of this view can be grouped by location, task or contact
Planner.NET provides intuitive user-interaction model for creating or editing appointments and events in a schedule. In addition, its programmatic interface places at your disposal many useful functions, ranging from printing and XML serialization to displaying reminders and checking what occurrences of recurrent events happen in a specified time interval. The control has been tested with the most popular Dotnet (.NET) development environments and programming languages like CSharp, VB.NET or Delphi.NET. It can be used to create applications in Visual Studio .NET (VS.NET) C#, Visual Basic .NET (VB .NET) or Delphi .NET among others.
Planner.NET consists of three assemblies:
Schedule.dll assembly defines the schedule data model and implements the Schedule class which serves as a document in the document-view architecture. This assembly also defines classes such as Item and Appointment which represent individual events in the schedule
Calendar.NET.dll assembly implements several calendar and schedule view as part of the Calendar Windows Forms control class. All views are implemented in the same control to allow drilling down the schedule data simply by changing the views. Each view allow creating new schedule items in it by typing over a time cell. Schedule items can be moved around and resized to change their start time and duration
ScheduleStandardForms.dll implements several standard dialogs that allow creating and editing schedule data such as tasks, contacts and appointments. Planner.NET provides assemblies for versions 1.1 and 2.0 of the .NET framework.
