Appointment Scheduler

Post by tfabacher » Tue Apr 01, 2014 2:02 pm

We are looking to develop a scheduling application in LiveCode. I was wondering if there are an extensions or samples of a calendar [like Outlook or Calendar on iPhone] that I could use to get started that would be GREAT! I am not looking for a date picker, but creating a full weekly and daily scheduler. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

Online, we are using tools like JQuery fullcalendar for the online UI and am looking to do the same for LiveCode.

Thanks,

Todd

There is some sample calendar code at trozware you could probably adapt:

Thanks, but I was look for more like outlook's weekly schedule. I will need to create it if I can't find it. more like an appointment schedule and not a date picker calendar.

I will start coding it next week. Will keep you posted.

Hi,

I found the following link by searching for "calendar" in this forum:
http://www.rotundasoftware.com/livecode ... arPane.php
Perhaps it'll give you some inspiration. Do you want to make a desktop app or a mobile app?

HyperCard came with a really cool calendar stack. If you still have HyperCard, you have it somewhere on your hard disk.

Kind regards,

Mark

Hi Todd

There is also Hugh Senior's DatePicker: http://livecode.com/store/marketplace/d ... -livecode/ and if you go to http://livecodeshare.runrev.com and search for 'calendar' or 'date' you find some more stacks

Thanks for the suggestions, but there does not seem to be what we are looking for. All of the code examples are for Calendars, not appointment schedules.

I will write one and make it public in a few weeks.

Hi Todd

I have to convert an existing web app (scheduling program for contractors ) to Livecode as the existing solution is no longer supported.

I searched around and found many good things about Livecode but am having difficulty getting started.

Do you have any insights / examples you could share, since we're both attempting appointment schedulers?

Thanks!

Tammy :)

Am looking for a way to display a weekly calendar.
Like: 7 flds - Mon Tue Wed Th Fri Sat Sun
click btn to go back or forward a week

I wonder if that is the kind of thing you are referring to.
