Dynamically change the date formats

Scheduler
#1

Hi there,

Would you kindly help us for dynamically changing the date format?
Now I’m trying to switch the date format according to the each view by the below 4 periods but the different date format hasn’t been applied there.

↓ For example, when the initial period was “3 days” as above,
if I clicked the below “2 weeks” button, the format for 2 weeks isn’t applied correctly.
(It’s the same one with the initial date format)

Date formats:

switch(days) {
 case 3: // For 3 days
  scheduler1.second_scale.x_date = '%F, %j(%D)';
  break;
 case 14: // For 2 weeks
  scheduler1.second_scale.x_date = '%n/%j';
  break;
}

scheduler1.setCurrentView(currentDate, 'timeline')

Would you have any good tips for this case?

Thank you for your many helps in advance.

Hello @meicom,

Likely the issue is connected with the case, that you are changing second_scale of the scheduler, as this property exists only in the timeline config:

 scheduler.createTimelineView({
    name:   "timeline",
    ...
    second_scale:{
        x_unit: "day",
        x_date: "%F %d"
    }

so it should be just defined in the config of views you are using, like follows:

// First timeline
 scheduler.createTimelineView({
    name:   "timeline_1",
    ...
    second_scale:{
        x_unit: "day",
        x_date: "%F %d"
    }
// Second timeline
 scheduler.createTimelineView({
    name:   "timeline_2",
    ...
    second_scale:{
        x_unit: "week",
        x_date: "%w"
    }

Here is a demo:

If it’s not your case, could you please reproduce the issue in the demo above(open the demo => reproduce the issue => click the “Save” button => send me the new link)?

Kind regards,
