Fixed Calendar

villafuerte — Wed, 05 May 2010 15:43:30 GMT

Hi,

I'd like to know if there's any way to modify the Caldendar object so that it's always visible. The final user will be working with dates and forecasts in that page so it would be good to have a visible calendar (like the one in Visual Studio, the one that only stays there and says what day is today) but I can't find any option to do that.

Thanks!

Hello,

I don't know this option for the calendar.

If you always want to see a calendar, I advise you to doing three list box (Year, Month and Day) and present them like a calendar.

Here's another approach to a persistent calendar. This has somewhat more than you actually need, but demonstrates how you can format a chart as a calendar. To highlight a day, you could use an expression for the background color or the day number, or make the day number bold, that kind of thing. Since you don't need amounts and bar graphs embedded, you can make it a lot smaller.

Your approach is very interesting and very creative

That is worth knowing.
