CategoryBarWidth
This property determines the width of two different kinds the category bars. The first is
the category bar displayed in the left margin of the schedule. If the CategoryBar
property is True, the categories will be listed in columns in the left margin. The width of
each bar (column) is defined by the CategoryBarWidth property. The second place a
category bar may be displayed is on the left edge of each appointment. If an
appointment has an associated category, the category’s color bar may be displayed on
the appointment. The width of this bar is also determined by this property.
ShowProviderAvailableTime
This property provides functionality similar to the CategoryBar property. There may or
may not be providers defined in the Providers collection. In any case, the displayed bars
may be toggled on and off. When this property is true and the CategoryBar property is
true, there will be two tabs on a tab strip in the top, left corner, of the schedule. When
the bottom tab is selected, the available times for all of the providers will be displayed.
The available times are the times defined for each Provider object’s AvailableTimes
collection. This collection is defined later under Advanced Functionality.
Note: If this bar margin on the left is desired to be as small as possible, the
CaptionAvailable property of the Providers collection may be set to empty string. The
margin is the smaller width of this caption or the summation of the bar widths. Setting
the caption to have a zero width ensures that just enough space to display the bars is
used.
ShowProviderScheduledTime
Each appointment may have an associated provider. When an appointment has one,
the provider is scheduled for the duration of the appointment. Again, if the bottom tab on
the tab strip in the top, left corner of the screen is selected, the schedule is in provider
mode. There will be provider bar displayed in the left margin that indicates the times for
which each provider has been scheduled. For each appointment that has an associated
provider, the colored, provider bar will be displayed it the left margin of the appointment.
The ShowProviderScheduledTime property allows for its selective display.
Note: If this bar margin on the left is desired to be as small as possible, the
CaptionAvailable property of the Providers collection may be set to empty string. The
margin is the smaller width of this caption or the summation of the bar widths. Setting
the caption to have a zero width ensures that just enough space to display the bars is
used.
ProviderBarWidth

provider bars. As with categories, provider bars may be in the left margin of the
