You can highlight the scale cell for the current time, by customizing hour_scale template

Check samples\02_customization\09_timestep.html
You can use the similar solution, just add custom style to the necessary time scale element.

You could create your own timeout(); javascript function to redraw the grid amskape???

#10

How can i redraw timeline grid individually without reloading the whole scheduler. Is that possible?

#11

Have a look for a function called updateView(); (or something very similar). I am sure there is a way to refresh the view without reloading the data, as I do this. I do not have my code infront of me at the moment to consult.

Nope, scales can be repainted only as part of global update

but i want to be done in minute based
Instead of bg color, you can use a set bg-images, with different position of marker

Hi,
I have made the time marker minute based, but i got a problem on refreshing time scale. I will explain the scenario with code snippet.

calling “updateView(0)” function on scheduler load function

function updateView(timeperiod)
{
if(timeperiod)
scheduler.update_view();
//scheduler._reset_scale();
t = setTimeout(“updateView(5000)”,timeperiod);
}

its refreshing in all 5 seconds and working fine but my problem is while am scrolling down and working with events at bottom part the refresh will take the calendar to the top start position ie if i am working with event @11pm after refresh calendar will start from top ie 9am for me. How can i tackle this problem. I urgently need to fix this. Please help asap.

Thanks in advance

[code]function updateView(timeperiod){

if(timeperiod){
    var view = scheduler._els["dhx_cal_data"][0];

    var top = view.scrollTop;
    scheduler.update_view();
    view.scrollTop = top;        
}
//scheduler._reset_scale();
t = setTimeout("updateView(5000)",timeperiod);

}[/code]
