Style the Selected Appointment / Item in a Telerik RadScheduler

I have a Telerik RadScheduler which displays events (or appointments).

I'm trying to style the selected appointment with a thicker red border.

I've found a page for Styling the Appointment Item on the Telerik website, but it relates to Silverlight and the properties that it mentions don't seem to exist in the WPF version.

I expect I'll be able to set up a bool in my ViewModel that describes whether the item is selected or not, and then create a data-trigger style, which will work but I'd prefer to use straight XAML if possible - and seeing as this seems to be implemented in Silverlight, I expect that it should also exist in WPF as well.

I would like something like this, if it exists

<telerik:RadScheduler Name="radScheduler" 
                      DataContext="{Binding}"
                      SelectedAppointmentStyle="{StaticResource aStyle}"

Has anyone done this, or can provide some pointers?

Solution

  • There doesn't seem to be any property on the RadScheduler which facilitates this type of requirement.

    My workaround was to implement an 'IsSelected' property which gets set when a command is fired; the style is then bound to this property.

    The downside is that I'm not really binding to whether the appointment is 'selected', but it works well enough.
