Time Bars
- Styles and Themes |
|
Time bars can represent activities, resource
allocations and the like for a specific period of time,
and are displayed within the Schedule area. |
|
| |
In addition to the traditional assigned start
times and end times (like an appointment), a Time Bar may also be used to
represent other aspects of a schedule such as
project milestones, elapsed time (progress
percentages), including developer/user defined
beginning and end point images. Solutions
Schedule for Silverlight comes with 15
pre-defined icons including Milestone Markers or
developers may implement their own custom
images. |

Schedule
Conflicts |
|
Milestone Markers |
|
Business rules may dictate that two resources
may not be scheduled at the same time or within
certain bounds of each other - these are managed
quite effectively. However, we know scheduling
conflicts do happen and a great way to alert of
potential conflicts is to give end users a
visual queue: |

Linking |

Maintaining discrete
relationships between resources and schedule
activities allows for improved scheduling
accuracy, greater manageability in large
schedule plans while emphasizing a priority for
the flow of events. |

Time Bar Linking creates
visual and functional elements for managing
those relationships. Solutions Schedule for

Owner
(User) Drawn Time Bars |
| |
|
The user drawn functionality of the
dbiScheduleSL control provides developers with
two opportunities to override the control's
native drawing routines for Time Bars and line
presentations in the header items. |
| |
|
| |
|

|
|
| |
|
Time Bars |
| |
|
User-Drawn Time Bars provide developers an
opportunity to take over the painting of any or
all time bars in the dbiSchedule control. User
Drawn Time Bars behave just the same as standard
time bars. |

|
Header Items |
| |
|
Keep track of projects and grouped tasks
visually as they progress through the schedule
by implementing custom header items to represent
current status. |
