Title: How to listen to the gantt chart view's start time changes
Post by: mkk on August 11, 2014, 02:33:10 PM

Hi
 
In my application I have two ComboBoxes, which are being used to set the start and end times for the GanttChart. For this purpose I use some modified code from your sample, which works as expected.
 
Now I want these ComboBoxes to be automatically set  to the LeftMostVisibleTime and the RightMostVisibleTime of the GanttChart (I use FitToPage as standard) when the end user changes anything (zoom in/out scroll etc.) on the GanttGrid and the GanttChart.
 
When the ComboBoxes are changed automatically it most not trigger a restart of the first process (similar to when the user changes the ComboBoxes)
 
Could you advice how I can handle this (various Events and properties)?
 
Thanks!

Mark,

You can listen to GanttChart.ViewTimeRangeChanged or GanttChart.ViewportTimeRangeChanged (has to be used if you have horizontal scrolling turned on in the chart - ResizeToFit = false).

When you set your DateTime editor's values, you should turn on a bool flag in your page so that you can distinguish user-edited VS programatically edited scenarios in the rest of your page.

Thanks

I would also like to know which time properties I should use to get the right start end time of the Gantt Chart when ResizeToFit is set to true and to false.

Thanks!
Michael

Mark,

You can use the VisualStartTime and VisualEndTime properties of GanttChart. Here is the sample code,

Code: [Select]

void ganttControl_TemplateApplied(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    this.ganttControl.GanttChart.AnchorTime = this.ganttControl.ProjectStartDate;
    this.ganttControl.GanttChart.ViewportTimeRangeChanged += GanttChart_ViewportTimeRangeChanged;
}

void GanttChart_ViewportTimeRangeChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    DateTime visualStart = this.ganttControl.GanttChart.VisualStartTime;
    DateTime visualEnd = this.ganttControl.GanttChart.VisualEndTime;
}
