Remarks

Important

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.

The Appointment Recurrence dialog allows end-users to change the appointment recurrence characteristics. The common appearance of the standard Appointment Recurrence form is shown below.

Use the SchedulerControl.RecurrenceFormShowing event to handle the display of this form, for example, to invoke your own custom form instead of the standard one.

Example

The following code snippet illustrates how to use the SchedulerControl.ShowRecurrenceForm method to invoke the Appointment Recurrence dialog when clicking the Recurrence button on the custom Edit Appointment form. To specify Recurrence button visibility, use the AppointmentFormController.ShouldShowRecurrence property.
