Disable Subject Editing in Day, Week, Month View?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi there,
Two (hopefully) quick and related questions about this excellent control:
1)  How can I disable the automatic subject editing in the Day/Week/Month views?  I.e., when you right-click on the event, it starts an in-place edit that lets you change the subject.  I'd like to disable this.
2)  How do I trap the right mouse button for a visible calendar event?  In my application, I'm adding specific objects to a calendar, and I want to control the editing and context-menus within my own dialogs.

	Hi, 1) You have to handle events XTP_NC_CALENDAR_IS_EVENT_EDIT_OPERATION_DISABLED and XTP_NC_CALENDAR_BEFORE_EVENT_EDIT_OPERATION. To disable a specific editing operation it is enough to set *pbCancel = TRUE. For an example see CalendarDemo sample application, method CCalendarDemoView::OnEvent_IsEditActionDisabled. 2) Handle XTP_NC_CALENDARCONTEXTMENU event. An example is available in the same sample. -- WBR, Serge
