Hi,

I'm working with release 4.2 of PocketPlanner. I noticed that although I set the TimetableSettings.GeneralFormat to a certain format using:
calendar1.TimetableSettings.GeneralFormat = DateTimeFormatInfo.CurrentInfo.ShortTimePattern;

It doesn't use this format.

I tracked it down to the ScheduleCell.DrawTimeLineV method where it looks for a value "round". If round then it uses settings.HourFormat for the hour and "00" or AM/PM for the minutes.

If round=false, then it uses the GeneralFormat property.

I was able to fix it by setting GroupHours to false. However, I would like to know if this is expected behavior.

I would like to have one place where I set the datetime format, i.e. the GeneralFormat property and not have to worry about also setting other properties like TwelveHourFormat.

Also, maybe related to this. I changed the GroupHours from true to false to fix the problem and nothing further changed in my timetable view. It still shows one hours per cell like I defined.

What is the effect of setting GroupHours to true?

Thanks,
Jeffry

Ok, so when I have the CellTime set to one hour, then I can just set GroupHours to disabled and then it uses the GeneralFormat.

BTW, I noticed that 13:00 displays fine, but 1:00 PM takes up too much space and PM is on the next line. How do I solve that?

Indeed it was the TimelineSettings.TimelineSize property.
