Scheduler RowHeaderMaxWidth desirable

Asked by Tim K.

Hello,
for our Scheduler Row-Header we use the properties rowHeaderWidthAutoFit and rowHeaderWidthAutoFitShrink.
Unfortunately it`s possible that the data in the row-header can be very wide, as you can see in the attached screenshot.

We would be grateful if you could implement something like a "rowHeaderMaxWidth"-option, to restrict the width that the Row-Header could grow to in one line. The data should then break in the next line(s).

You can achieve this using CSS - specify max-width for the row header text:

.scheduler_default_rowheader_inner_text {
  max-width: 100px;
}

This works, but now the row header isn`t high enough to display all text-lines. Is there a possibility to set rowHeaderHeight to "auto"?
By increasing the eventHeight value, the row-header-text is displayed in full. But we don`t want to increase this, because our events should stay thin like on the screenshot.

The row height is derived from the event height and you can also override it manually using resources[].minHeight (see also https://api.daypilot.org/daypilot-scheduler-resources/). But it's not possible to use "auto" height based on the the text content of the header.

You might want to take a look at the row header scrollbar which will let you use wide row header content without disrupting the main grid size:
