(F) Specific Rendering Events in DayPilot Bubble

Prior to this release, DayPilot Bubble control had only one rendering event (RenderContent) which was called for all sources (events, cells, headers). It was necessary to cast the RenderEventArgs parameter to a specific type.

Example:

    protected void DayPilotBubble1_RenderContent(object sender, RenderEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e is RenderEventBubbleEventArgs)
        {
            re.InnerHTML = "<b>Event details</b><br />Here is the right place to show details about the event with ID: " + re.Value + ".";
        }
        else if (e is RenderTimeBubbleEventArgs)
        {
            RenderTimeBubbleEventArgs re = e as RenderTimeBubbleEventArgs;
            e.InnerHTML = "<b>Time header details</b><br />From:" + re.Start + "<br />To: " + re.End;
        }
        else if (e is RenderCellBubbleEventArgs)
        {
            RenderCellBubbleEventArgs re = e as RenderCellBubbleEventArgs;
            e.InnerHTML = "<b>Cell details</b><br />Column:" + re.ResourceId + "<br />From:" + re.Start + "<br />To: " + re.End;
        }
    }

Now there are four new events that replace the RenderContent event:

  • RenderCellBubble
  • RenderEventBubble
  • RenderTimeBubble
  • RenderResourceBubble

EventArgs casting is no longer necessary, since each event handler already provides the correct EventArgs type.

Status: Implemented

(F) Full Event Details available to DayPilot Bubble

The RenderEventBubbleEventArgs class (event arguments for RenderEventBubble event of DayPilot Bubble control) now holds full information about the source event:

  • Value
  • Start
  • End
  • Text
  • ResourceId
  • IsAllDay
  • Tag

In the previous versions, only Value was available and it was necessary to load the details from the original data source.

Status: Implemented
