AlternateSelectTypeDay Property

Returns the selection type used for selecting days for UltraScheduleControlBase-derived controls whose UltraScheduleControlBase.UseAlternateSelectedDateRanges property is set to true.
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Property AlternateSelectTypeDay As SelectType
public SelectType AlternateSelectTypeDay {get; set;}
Remarks

The AlternateSelectTypeDay property determines how Day objects may be selected via code and through the UltraSchedule controls that are attached to the UltraCalendarInfo component and whose whose UseAlternateSelectedDateRanges property is set to true.

The property cannot be changed during the BeforeAlternateSelectedDateRangeChange event.

Example
The following code sample demonstrates how the AlternateSelectedDateRanges collection can be used to allow an UltraWinSchedule control that is associated with the same UltraCalendarInfo component as other UltraWinSchedule controls to have date selections that are independent of the other controls.
