DayPilot News Blog

On August 2, DayPilot Pro 3.9 was released.

New features:

1. DayPilotScheduler



The biggest new feature is DayPilotScheduler, a new control that replaces DayPilotVertical in Resources view.

DayPilotScheduler highlights:

• Showing multiple days (from 1 to 365 or more)
• Day/week/month/year views
• Configurable time cell size (from 1 minute to 1 day)
• Time header grouping (cells can be grouped by hour, day, week, or month)
• Improved rendering time (year view rendering time reduced from 15.4s to 1.5s in IE7)
  
• Rendering events (allow custom event, headers, and cells rendering)
• AJAX features (event moving, resizing, inline editing, time range selection, refresh)
• Time scale zooming (switching day/week/month/year views using AJAX callback)

See a demo.

2. Multiple data fields binding

Tag field is now extended to support multiple fields binding. This is especially useful in rendering event handlers (e.g., BeforeEventRender).

3. Time range selection context menu

It's now possible to handle the time range selection using a context menu on the client side.
See a demo.

4. Event boxes can be turned off even for short events.

DayPilotCalendar.UseEventBoxes property was extended to support the following values:

• Always (default, replacing "true")
• ShortEventsOnly (replacing "false", still renders event boxes for short events)
• Never (never renders event boxes)
