Hi C1,
just discovered that C1Schedule can be printed ;-).
But a few questions:
the print options form lacks a printer selection combobox - when clicking “OK” it directly prints to the default printer. When previewing, this is possible.
We use a grouping by resource ("myC1Schedule.GroupBy = “Resource”). This is not supported?
Best regards
Wolfgang

And then I tested the “C1SchedulerExtended” dll ;-).
I did not find a website which explains the purpose of C1TableView and C1AgendaView.
when assigning our existing C1Scheduler to a C1TableView, this exception occured:
System.ArgumentException
HResult=0x80070057
Message=Der Typ des Werts stimmt nicht mit dem Spaltentyp überein<156957777> konnte nicht in der Id-Spalte gespeichert werden. Erwarteter Typ: Guid.
Source=System.Data
StackTrace:
at System.Data.DataColumn.set_Item(Int32 record, Object value)
at System.Data.DataRow.set_Item(DataColumn column, Object value)
at C1.Win.C1Schedule.C1TableView.SetRow(Appointment app, DataRow row)
at C1.Win.C1Schedule.C1TableView.AddDataRow(Appointment app)
at C1.Win.C1Schedule.C1TableView.OnAppointmentsLoaded()
at C1.Win.C1Schedule.BaseTableView.set_Schedule(C1Schedule value)
at ... this is our code...
This exception was originally thrown at this call stack:
System.Data.Common.ObjectStorage.Set(int, object)
System.Data.DataColumn.this[int].set(int, object)
Inner Exception 1:
ArgumentException: Der Typ des Werts stimmt nicht mit dem Spaltentyp überein
We use an int ID, and it seems C1TableView works only with Guids.
For C1AgendaView it worked, but the control was empty…
Best regards

I think the TableView and AgendaView controls don’t help us in our use cases…

Hi Wolfgang,
Can you share your use case with us? May be an approach exists, or the team can find some workaround for it. If not, we can share it with developers and they might enhance the control to support your case, if they find it feasible.
Regards,
Ruchir

Hi Ruchir,
no need to dig further into this ;-). For our C1Schedule usage, the AgendaView simply does not make sense. And instead of the TableView, we could add a (already existing) custom flexgrid which displays the appointment details and all necessary data of our application.
I just wanted to understand the possible usage of TableView and AgendaView and wanted to checked whether they might be helpful in our application. The links you provided helped a lot. But the result of my research is “not needed” ;-).
Best regards
Wolfgang
By the way: is the mail notification feature broken? I did not receive forum mails since a few days.

Hello,
Okay. Do let us know, if you’ve any questions in future.
>By the way: is the mail notification feature broken? I did not receive forum mails since a few days.
Yes, currently it’s not working. The developers are aware of this and working towards getting it up and running again.
With regards,

Hi Wolfgang,
Regarding the issue#2, grouping by resource: Sorry but I believe that I misinterpreted and performed incorrect steps. Now, if I just group the scheduler by Resource (using GroupBy method) and then try to print (using PrintInfo.Print method) then it functions well.
Therefore, can you please elaborate a little further that may help us understand what exactly is the issue you are facing?
Thanks,
Ruchir

Hi Ruchir,
attached is a screenshot of our real app (mode “DayView”), with four resource groups, and a printout of the same. You will see that the printed doc does not contain the resource groups.
The print contains the HTML strings that we use as subject texts, but this is already reported to your support - #418108
Probably the next step will be that you request a sample ;-)? Currently, I don’t have one.
Best regards

Hi Wolfgang,
Thank you for the description of the issue. Following it, we believe that we have observed the issue you’re describing. So, we don’t need any demo application right now.
We’ve forwarded the concern to the developers and will get back to you with the update.
With thanks & regards,
Ruchir

Hi,
We’ve received an update on the issue of printing with groups: Developers have confirmed that it’s a limitation, that is C1Scheduler ignores grouping at printing.
Regards,
Ruchir

Thanks! Currently, printing would be a nice to have feature, but we don’t have customer requests for this. And as long as HTML output does not work, we cannot use it anyway.

Hi Wolfgang,
Just as an update, I wanted to inform you that the team has fixed the issue and now, no exception is thrown when appointment key is an integer value.
The fix might be available in the next public release.
Thanks,
Ruchir

Thanks - though I will not use C1TableView ;-).
