How to: Group Appointments by Dates (legacy)

• Aug 03, 2020

Note

You are viewing documentation for the legacy WPF Scheduler control. If you’re starting a new project, we strongly recommend that you use a new control declared in the DevExpress.Xpf.Scheduling namespace. If you decide to upgrade an existing project in order to switch to the updated scheduler control, see the Migration Guidelines document.

If appointments managed by a Scheduler control are assigned to some resources, then it is possible to group these appointments within a scheduling area. There are three available types of grouping: by dates, by resources and the absence of a grouping.

This example demonstrates how to group the Scheduler control’s data by dates, via the SchedulerControl.GroupType property. You can selectively do this, either at design time (via the XAML markup)…

XAML

<dxsch:SchedulerControl Name="schedulerControl1" 
                        GroupType="Date"/>

…or at runtime (via code in the code-behind file).

C#

using DevExpress.XtraScheduler;
// ...

schedulerControl1.GroupType = SchedulerGroupType.Date;

VB.NET

Imports DevExpress.XtraScheduler
' ...

schedulerControl1.GroupType = SchedulerGroupType.Date
