ctMDay  --  is an appointment scheduling component that displays a multi-day schedule for a single resource or a single day’s schedule for multiple resources. Appointments are easily created by clicking and selecting time lines and entering the appointment text from the keyboard making it ideal for PIM or scheduling based applications. ctMDay provides a powerful and dynamic data presentation, capture, and print scheduling interface.

Time Segments : The general time segments can be set to 5, 10, 15, 30 and 60 minute segments. New advanced time options now allow you to set the time increments along a 1-60 minute scale. Making it ideal for scheduling appointments that do no fall along a traditional time pattern such as golf courses. 

Edit Text : Edit text directly from an appointment. Click on the appointment to start editing the text. A new edit option allows for editing to stop when the "Enter" key is pressed. This makes the control ideal for entering a series of appointments directly from the keyboard. Use the arrow keys to move to the appropriate time. Start to enter the appointment text. Hit the "Enter" key to finish editing and then quickly move to the next appropriate time. 

Fill Styles : The background of the title, header, and time area can all be colored with different fill styles. Just like those found in the new GDI+ drawing routines for .NET. including patters for horizontal, vertical, diagonal, horizontal bump, vertical bump, pyramid, diamond, circular and elliptical gradient fills.

Multiple Columns : Display up to 10 visible columns and store data for up to 32,000 virtual columns. Display multiple days for a single resource, or multiple resources for a single day. Column images can now be assigned "code" defined columns.

Task Bar Fills : The task bars (the colored bars down the left side of the appointment) can be drawn with their fill color representing the actual time. For instance, if the appointment is only 10 minutes long, but the actual appointment is in a 30 minute segment, only the first third of the task bar will be colored.

Appointment Management Methods : Custom methods to programmatically add, change, and delete appointments.

Appointment Conflict Management : Includes methods and properties for locating conflicting appointments. Appointment area algorithms in the control optimize screen space when appointments conflict.

Appointment Images : Each appointment can display up to 4 stock images (reminder, tentative, location, and private) as well as three custom images.
Print Schedule : Custom method prints schedule with a simple line of code.

Print In Window : Also supports the PrintInWindow method which prints the contents of the current schedule on a specific area of a page.

Drag and Drop : Drag and drop between columns or in and out of component. Built-in support for drag and drop of items between columns or run-time drag and drop of items in to and out of the component.

Column Block Color : Supports the independent coloring of time blocks within individual columns.

Definable Times : Define the starting and ending time for the schedule. Display the times in standard or military time.

Change Appointment Times : Change the starting time and length of an appointment by clicking and dragging along the top or bottom bar of the appointment.

Key ID's : Key ID values can be automatically generated for each appointment. This makes moving data for an appointment to and from a database much easier.
