Force edit series when editing an event

[Dave Stewart]

I'm using the schedule component in angular and would like to change the way editing an event in a series works. Currently, if you double click an event which is in a series, you receive a popup asking how to edit the event:

However, I'd like to hide this completely and always force the user to edit the series. In our application, editing individual events of a series doesn't make any sense.

If the event is not​ in a series it should open up as normal.

Is this possible?

Hi Dave Stewart,

 

Thank you for reaching out to us!

You can directly open the editor window while editing and deleting the recurrence events by using the Scheduler's openEditor method in the popupOpen event, as demonstrated in the below share snippets.

<ejs-schedule #scheduleObj (popupOpen)="popupOpen($event)">

 

public popupOpen(args: PopupOpenEventArgs) {

    if (args.type == 'RecurrenceAlert') {

      args.cancel = true;

      if (this.scheduleObj.currentAction == 'EditOccurrence') {

        this.scheduleObj.openEditor(args.data, 'EditSeries');

      }

      if (this.scheduleObj.currentAction == 'Delete') {

        this.scheduleObj.deleteEvent(args.data, 'DeleteSeries');

      }

    }

  }
