Remarks

If the AllowAppointmentDrag property is set to Custom, use the SchedulerControl.AllowAppointmentDrag event to specify whether an appointment can be dragged.

Examples

This example demonstrates how to implement custom rules for editing and deleting appointments. The code below allows an appointment to be edited only by its owner (the end-user who created it). To do this it’s necessary to set the SchedulerOptionsCustomization.AllowAppointmentEdit and SchedulerOptionsCustomization.AllowAppointmentDelete properties to UsedAppointmentType.Custom, and handle the SchedulerControl.AllowAppointmentEdit and SchedulerControl.AllowAppointmentDelete events to implement custom logic for editing appointments.

csharp
using DevExpress.XtraScheduler;
// ...

private void schedulerControl1_AllowAppointmentDelete(object sender, 
    AppointmentOperationEventArgs e) {
   // Allow only the user who created this appontment to delete it.
   e.Allow = CanUserModifyThisAppointment(e.Appointment);
}
private void schedulerControl1_AllowAppointmentEdit(object sender, 
    AppointmentOperationEventArgs e) {
   // Allow only the user who created this appontment to modify it.
   e.Allow = CanUserModifyThisAppointment(e.Appointment);
}
// Determine if the current user is the same 
// as the one who created the specified appointment 
bool CanUserModifyThisAppointment(Appointment apt) {
   object obj = apt.CustomFields["Owner"];
   if (obj == null)
      return true;
   string appointmentOwner = obj.ToString();
   if (appointmentOwner == String.Empty)
      return true;
   return (String.Compare(appointmentOwner, tbUserName.Text, true) == 0);
}
vb
Imports DevExpress.XtraScheduler
' ...

Private Sub schedulerControl1_AllowAppointmentDelete(ByVal sender As Object, _
ByVal e As AppointmentOperationEventArgs)
   ' Allow only the user who created this appontment to delete it.
   e.Allow = CanUserModifyThisAppointment(e.Appointment)
End Sub
Private Sub schedulerControl1_AllowAppointmentEdit(ByVal sender As Object, _
ByVal e As AppointmentOperationEventArgs)
   ' Allow only the user who created this appontment to modify it.
   e.Allow = CanUserModifyThisAppointment(e.Appointment)
End Sub
' Determine if the current user is the same 
' as the one who created the specified appointment 
Private Function CanUserModifyThisAppointment(ByVal apt As Appointment) As Boolean
   Dim obj As Object = apt.CustomFields("Owner")
   If obj Is Nothing Then
      Return True
   End If
   Dim appointmentOwner As String = obj.ToString()
   If appointmentOwner = String.Empty Then
      Return True
   End If
   Return (String.Compare(appointmentOwner, tbUserName.Text, True) = 0)
End Function

The code below shows how to handle the SchedulerControl.AllowAppointmentDrag event to prevent all-day appointments from being dragged.

csharp
schedulerControl1.OptionsCustomization.AllowAppointmentDrag = UsedAppointmentType.Custom;

private void SchedulerControl1_AllowAppointmentDrag(object sender, AppointmentOperationEventArgs e) {
    e.Allow = !e.Appointment.AllDay;
}
vb
schedulerControl1.OptionsCustomization.AllowAppointmentDrag = UsedAppointmentType.Custom

Private Sub SchedulerControl1_AllowAppointmentDrag(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As AppointmentOperationEventArgs) _
    Handles schedulerControl1.AllowAppointmentDrag
    e.Allow = Not e.Appointment.AllDay
End Sub
