Is is possible to search and set the scroll position for the resources?
Thank You.

On the server side, ScrollY and ScrollX properties are available. They hold the scroll position in pixels and you can update them (don't forget to call Update()).

On the client side, you can read the position using getScrollX() and getScrollY() and change it using setScroll(x, y). All values in pixels.

Hi Dan,
Thank you for your response. I don't think I explained what I was trying to do very well.
I am using the Daypilot Scheduler and loading the resources from a database. The resources are people and I would like to use a text box to enter part of the persons name and set the scroll position to that person. Is there any way to do that with the Scheduler?
Thank You,
Dave

I see. You can try this:

function findRowTopByName(name) {
  for (var i = 0; i < dps.rows.length; i++) {
    var row = dps.rows[i];
    if (row.Name.indexOf(name) != -1) {
      return row.Top;
    }
  }
  return -1; // not found
}

dps.setScroll(dps.getScrollX(), findRowTopByName('Jack'));

Warning: It's based on undocumented properties (dps.rows is not to be accessed directly) and it may stop working in the future.
