Description
How can I set the cell background color based on the slot date in the Kendo UI for jQuery Scheduler?
Solution
The following example demonstrates how to achieve the desired behavior by using the slotTemplate
and allDaySlotTemplate
configuration options. Note that the slotTemplate
is supported when views.type
is set to day
, week
, workWeek
, or timeline
views. The allDaySlotTemplate
is supported only for the day
, week
, and workWeek
views.
<div id="scheduler"></div>
<style>
/* Remove the padding of scheduler slots */
.k-scheduler-table td, .k-scheduler-table th
{
padding: 0;
}
</style>
<script>
function getColorBasedOnHour(date) {
var difference = date.getTime() - kendo.date.getDate(date);
var hours = difference / kendo.date.MS_PER_HOUR;
if (hours >= 8 && hours < 12) {
return "#CC66FF";
} else if (hours >= 13 && hours < 17) {
return "#CC0099";
} else {
return "#33CCFF";
}
}
