public class AppointmentDescriptionPresenter :
FastTextBlock,
INotifyDependencyPropertyChanged
Public Class AppointmentDescriptionPresenter
Inherits FastTextBlock
Implements INotifyDependencyPropertyChanged
The AppointmentDescriptionPresenter element is the FastTextBlock class descendant whose FastTextBlock.Text property is bound to the Description property of the appointment content presenter.
The base FastTextBlock class provides better display performance by rendering text at the glyph level. The AppointmentDescriptionPresenter.SeparatorBrush and AppointmentDescriptionPresenter.SeparatorThickness properties allow you to specify a separator line at the top of the text block.
Note
The AppointmentDescriptionPresenter element is hidden by default. Apply the style with the AppointmentControlBase.ShowDescription set to true to display it.
Tip
Assign the AppointmentDescriptionPresenter element to the AppointmentContentPanel.Description property.
This code describes a custom template used to display appointment information in the AppointmentControl. The template is applied explicitly in the Day View by assigning its x:Key to the DayViewBase.AppointmentContentTemplate property.
