Calendar Widget / Request - additional #2014

Open

Description

@WJKortleve-WUR

Thanks for this widget, works overall quite well. I do have some enhancements that would really benefit the usage of this widget.

  • Please bring back the custom option to format the time shown in the day and week view.
  • The title of an event is a pure string. Please make this an HTML item to be able to add more formatting on the event title.
  • Also as mentioned by others, a click event should be helpful on an event to open the details page for that event.
  • Please add a class on tbc-time-view which is now the same for both day and week view. Fot month view the class is rbc-month-view. For customizing CSS classes a separate rbc-day-view and rbc-week-view (analog to rbc-month-view) would be very helpful.
  • Now the week starts with the Sunday but it would be helpful tot set the start day of the week. In our case that will be the Monday. The whole week view would then be as expected here in the Netherlands ;)
  • Please make the focus (scroll to) of the initial view (day view) to the current time.

I hope some of these request can be implemented in the near future. Also please keep in mind the widget is used in a PWA also so the screen estate is much smaller. Thanks!

    • Custom time format in day/week view: done. The Time format property formats the time column and event time ranges in every view. Custom view also has a separate "Time gutter format" per toolbar item.
    • HTML / rich formatting in the event title: not available. The title can come from an attribute or an expression, but it is always shown as plain text. There is no way to use HTML or widgets inside an event.
    • Click on event opens details page: partially available. On edit can open a page, but a single click only selects the event. The action runs on a double-click, or on a second click of an already-selected event.
    • Separate CSS classes for day and week view: not available. Day and week view both use the shared rbc-time-view class, and the widget does not add a class for the active view.
    • Week starts on Monday: done. The first day of the week comes from the Mendix locale, so it is set in the Studio Pro language/runtime settings.
    • Day view scrolls to current time on load: not available. Day and week view open at the configured "Day start hour", not at the current time.

    Thanks for the detailed request. As we understand it, you'd like these changes in the Calendar widget:

    1. Rich (HTML) formatting in event titles.
    2. An action that runs on a single click of an event. Today it runs on a double-click, or on a second click of an already-selected event.
    3. Separate CSS classes for day view and week view. Both currently share rbc-time-view.
    4. Day view opening scrolled to the current time instead of the configured "Day start hour".

    The custom time format and the Monday week start are already covered, as described in the earlier comment on this issue. The week start follows the Mendix locale.

    Please correct us if we've misread anything. Maintainers will review the remaining items. Because they are separate features, they may be split into individual issues.

    Automated triage by Claude. It can be wrong, and a maintainer makes the final decision.
