SchedulerPrintStyles
Printing in RadScheduler is performed by objects of type SchedulerPrintStyle. The print style object provides a set of options that define the date range of printing and the appearance of the printed pages.
SchedulerPrintStyle is an abstract class and cannot be instantiated directly. You should use one of the following implementations: SchedulerDailyPrintStyle,SchedulerWeeklyPrintStyle, SchedulerMonthlyPrintStyle, SchedulerDetailsPrintStyle.
When applying a specific PrintStyle make sure that you set the relevant ActiveViewType for RadScheduler.
To set a RadScheduler with a print style:
Daily Print Style
SchedulerPrintStyle schedulerPrintStyle = new SchedulerDailyPrintStyle();
this.radScheduler1.PrintStyle = schedulerPrintStyle;
Dim schedulerPrintStyle As New SchedulerDailyPrintStyle()
Me.RadScheduler1.PrintStyle = schedulerPrintStyle
SchedulerPrintStyle has the following properties:
- DateStartRange and DateEndRange: Allows you to specify the date range which should be printed:
Specify Date Range
schedulerPrintStyle.DateStartRange = DateTime.Today;
schedulerPrintStyle.DateEndRange = DateTime.Today.AddDays(6);
schedulerPrintStyle.DateStartRange = DateTime.Today
schedulerPrintStyle.DateEndRange = DateTime.Today.AddDays(6)
- TimeStartRange and TimeEndRange: Allows you to specify the time frame which for every day in the date range - i.e. the time frame which will be printed for each date in the date range period:
Specify Time Frame
schedulerPrintStyle.TimeStartRange = TimeSpan.FromHours(7);
schedulerPrintStyle.TimeEndRange = TimeSpan.FromHours(19);
schedulerPrintStyle.TimeStartRange = TimeSpan.FromHours(7)
schedulerPrintStyle.TimeEndRange = TimeSpan.FromHours(19)
- AppointmentFont, DateHeadingFont and PageHeadingFont allow you to specify the fonts for the appointments, dates and page headers respectively:
Set Font
schedulerPrintStyle.AppointmentFont = new Font("Segoe UI Light", 8, FontStyle.Regular);
schedulerPrintStyle.DateHeadingFont = new Font("Segoe UI Light", 12, FontStyle.Regular);
schedulerPrintStyle.PageHeadingFont = new Font("Segoe UI Light", 16, FontStyle.Regular);
schedulerPrintStyle.AppointmentFont = New Font("Segoe UI Light", 8, FontStyle.Regular)
schedulerPrintStyle.DateHeadingFont = New Font("Segoe UI Light", 12, FontStyle.Regular)
schedulerPrintStyle.PageHeadingFont = New Font("Segoe UI Light", 16, FontStyle.Regular)
- You can also specify which visual parts of the page to be printed - page title, calendar in the page title, notes area, etc:
Specify Visual Parts
schedulerPrintStyle.DrawPageTitle = true;
schedulerPrintStyle.DrawPageTitleCalendar = true;
schedulerPrintStyle.ShowLinedNotesArea = true;
schedulerPrintStyle.ShowNotesArea = true;
schedulerPrintStyle.DrawPageTitle = True
schedulerPrintStyle.DrawPageTitleCalendar = True
schedulerPrintStyle.ShowLinedNotesArea = True
schedulerPrintStyle.ShowNotesArea = True
- To modify the size of the visual areas use:
Area Size
schedulerPrintStyle.NotesAreaWidth = 200;
schedulerPrintStyle.HeadingAreaHeight = 100;
schedulerPrintStyle.NotesAreaWidth = 200
schedulerPrintStyle.HeadingAreaHeight = 100
