Context Menu in Blazor Scheduler Component
23 Aug 202313 minutes to read
The context menu can be displayed on work cells, resource cells and appointments of Scheduler by making use of the ContextMenu control manually from the application end. In the following code example, context menu control is being added from sample end and set its target as Scheduler and the target element is got by using GetElementInfoAsync public method in Blazor.
On Scheduler cells, the menu items can be displayed such as New Event, New Recurring Event and Today option. For appointments, its related options can be displayed such as Edit Event and Delete Event. For resource cells, the related resource cell information can be displayed. The default event window can be opened for appointment creation and editing using the OpenEditorAsync method of Scheduler.
The deletion of appointments can be done by using the DeleteEventAsync public method. Also, the SelectedDate property can be used to navigate between different dates.
NOTE
You can also display custom menu options on Scheduler cells and appointments. Context menu will open on tap-hold in responsive mode.
