Timeline View
- 3 minutes to read
This document introduces the SchedulerControl‘s Timeline view.
The Timeline view displays appointments as horizontal bars along the timescales and provides end-users with a better overview for scheduling purposes. To show the view, set the SchedulerControl.ActiveViewIndex property to the necessary view index in the SchedulerControl.Views collection, which stores all views defined in the scheduler.
Note
The SchedulerControl has all views with the default settings enabled out-of-the-box. If you declare any view in XAML or create views using the SchedulerControl’s smart tag, only the declared views become available. You can specify any number of views with the same type and different settings.
The Timeline view is the TimelineView class in the Scheduler API. It inherits the ViewBase base class.
