Setting Subject font properties

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

   Is it possible to set a calendar event subject's font to strikethrough when it is displayed in the calendar? 

I wanted to use a custom property of "Status" to be able to mark an event done and want to be able to easily tell events that are done by having their subject displayed in strikethrough font.

Any help with code sample would be appreciated

	use BeforeDrawThemeObject e.g. void CCalendarDemoView::OnBeforeDrawThemeObject(XTP_NOTIFY_CODE Event, WPARAM wParam , LPARAM lParam){ ............................................ if (wParam == xtpCalendarBeforeDraw_DayViewEvent){ ........................................... pTheme2007->GetDayViewPartX()->GetDayPartX()->GetGroupPartX()->GetSingleDayEventPartX()->m_fcsetNormal.fcsetSubject.fntFont.SetCustomValue(&s_fntStriked); ............................................ You can find in VB similar things

	Thanks for the reply, I see how to set font underline in the "beforedrawthemeobject" event, however I have not been able to figure out how to get the event information in that procedure. I only want to use the strikethrough when a custom propery = a value. How can you determine what event is being drawn in that procedure?

	You have enough information control passed as BeforeDrawThemeObject params. e.g, ................................ if (wParam == xtpCalendarBeforeDraw_DayViewEvent){ CXTPCalendarDayViewEvent* pViewEvent = (CXTPCalendarDayViewEvent)lParam; if (pViewEvent && pViewEvent->GetEvent()->GetSubject().Left(1) == _T("")){.....} else if (wParam == xtpCalendarBeforeDraw_MonthViewDay){ CXTPCalendarMonthViewDay* pDay = (CXTPCalendarMonthViewDay*)lParam; if (pDay->GetDayDate().GetDayOfWeek() == 3){....} ................................

	you can cast lParam as Event in VB - similar to C++. Now you have access to Event info

	I'm sure you can I just have not been able to figure out how to do it or how to translate your C code to VB.
