Context Menu in ASP.NET Core Scheduler
You can display a context menu on the work cells and appointments of the Scheduler by using the ContextMenu control from the application end. In the following code example, the context menu control is added from the sample end and its target is set to Scheduler.
On Scheduler cells, you can display menu items such as New Event, New Recurring Event, and the Today option. For appointments, you can display related options such as Edit Event and Delete Event. The default event window can be opened for appointment creation and editing using the openEditor method of the Scheduler.
Appointments can be deleted by using the deleteEvent public method. Also, the selectedDate property can be used to navigate between different dates.
You can also display custom menu options on Scheduler cells and appointments. The context menu opens on tap and hold in responsive mode.
