The highlighting blue background area should be proportional to the duration of the dragging external event in fullcalendar


I am using fullCalendar-2.9.1 along with fullcalendar-scheduler-1.4.0. In my current project I have external elements which I need to drag and drop into full calendar. While dragging the element into the full calendar, a highlighting portion is displayed which shows the selected portion that the dragged element is hovering. I have set the defaultTimedEventDuration as '00:30:00', so that the default duration of an event should be 30 minutes if the end is not specified.

I have events, which has duration as 10 minutes. I am dragging these fullcalender events to the external element box and again dragging it back to the fullcalendar. I have set the start and end time of the event in data(‘event’).

Now my problem is, when I am dragging an external element into the fullcalendar the highlighting portion is equivalent to 30 minutes always, because of the defaultTimedEventDuration I guess. I need to control the height of the highlighting portion which should match the duration of the dragging element.

How can I control the highlighting portions height according to the event duration?

Solution

  • Got answer. We need to include the duration in el.data('event', { title: event.title, id: event._id, start: event.start, end: event.end, stick: true }). ie, el.data('event', { title: event.title, id: event._id, start: event.start, end: event.end, duration: '00:10:00', stick: true })
