Public Event CustomDrawDayViewTimeRuler As CustomDrawObjectEventHandler
The CustomDrawDayViewTimeRuler event's data class is CustomDrawObjectEventArgs. The following properties provide information specific to this event:
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Bounds | Returns the bounding rectangle of the drawing area. |
| Cache | Gets an object which specifies the storage for the pens, fonts and brushes. Use it for custom painting in Scheduler Reports. |
| Graphics | Gets an object used for painting. |
| Handled | Gets or sets whether an event was handled. If it was handled, the default actions are not required. |
| ObjectInfo | Gets information on the painted element. |
The event data class exposes the following methods:
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| DrawDefault() | Renders the element using the default drawing mechanism. |
| DrawHtml(HtmlTemplate, DxHtmlPainterContext, Action<DxHtmlPainterArgs>) | Paints the required HTML template inside an element that raised this event. The context parameter allows you to assign an object that transfers mouse events to template elements. |
| DrawHtml(HtmlTemplate, Action<DxHtmlPainterArgs>) | Paints the required HTML template inside an element that raised this event. |
| GetDisplayValue(String) | |
| GetValue(String) |
The CustomDrawDayViewTimeRuler event is raised before a DayViewTimeRuler is printed.
Note
Use the CustomDrawObjectEventArgs.Cache property to paint shapes, write a text and insert images. Do not use the CustomDrawObjectEventArgs.Graphics object in Scheduler Reports
Set the CustomDrawObjectEventArgs.Handled property to true , to prohibit default painting. Call the CustomDrawObjectEventArgs.DrawDefault method to perform the default drawing procedure if necessary.
The following code sample draws the name of the current time zone in the TimeRuler.
This code snippet uses the GraphicsCache object accessible via the CustomDrawObjectEventArgs.Cache property to paint a colored rectangle containing text in the DayViewTimeRuler visual element of the Scheduler Report. The painted text is the display name of the current time zone.
