Treat marked time span same like Event

Scheduler
#1

Hi i need to know if there is a way to make MARKED TIME SPAN act like event.
So i can make them by just clicking on calender and dragging / extending to some length and also i may get the time ranges and date after when i leave the mouse, So it will give me Date and Time ranges and then i will use them in addmarkedtimspan() to make real markedtimespan thingy.

Regards

Hi,

Yes, you can get dates using getActionData() method that returns the current cursor-pointed date

Similar approach is used in the sample, please check

Unfortunately such feature is not supported.

As @sematik mentioned, unfortunately there is no simple inbuilt way to implement it.
Could you please clarify why do you need to change height of marked timespans? Possibly I will be able to provide you with workaround.

Dragging or changing marked timespans would be an amazing feature. The reason being that they are using for things like a persons lunch break and people like an easy way to move it to a different time.

Hi @craigvn,

Thank you for your post. I will discuss the proposal with our dev team. Possibly it will be implemented in the future.

@craigvn Correct :+1:
And also for managing different kind of time blocks. Such as evening timings and morning.
