Hello,
When creating a new appointment, I notice a strange behaviour:
Per default, the appointment is ‘allDay’ duration.
Once unchecked this property, I can select time for starting and ending time for my appointment.
If I change the end time, the end date is changed also to the day after the initial date.
Explanation:
From field is set to 2015-01-06 00:00:00 (seconds not shown)
To field is set to 2015-01-06 23:59:59 (seconds not shown)
If I change the From field (hour part set to 15:00), the To field is updated also in order to keep the original appointment duration.
So that, the To field is now set to 2015-01-07 14:59:59 ! And we then need to set the time then to restore the correct date.
Even worth, if I change the To field before changing to From field, when changing the From field, the To field is also changed, still in order to keep the appointment duration.
Is there a way to avoid this way, ie enable to losing of appointment duration when changind times ?
Many thanks.
Hi MichaelIP,
That’s how it works by design and actually allDay is not default as I explained in another thread. If you want to customize that behavior, you are able to replace the built-in DateTimeInput widgets in the Edit dialog using the Scheduler’s events and use jqxDateTimeInput to create other kind of logic for choosing from and to dates.

Well… I will try the solution you mentioned… but not now !
Many thanks meanwhile for your answer.
I just hope it won’t be to much difficult changing this.
Many thanks again.
