How to drop an appointment at the exact hour in the .NET MAUI Scheduler?

To drop an appointment precisely on the hour in the .NET MAUI Scheduler, you can handle the AppointmentDrop event. This document outlines the steps required to modify the dropped time to the nearest hour.

Step 1: Subscribe to the AppointmentDrop event of the Scheduler control.

C#

this.scheduler.AppointmentDrop += OnSchedulerAppointmentDrop;

Step 2: In the event handler, adjust the drop time to the nearest hour by setting the minutes and seconds to zero.

C#

   private void OnSchedulerAppointmentDrop(object? sender, AppointmentDropEventArgs e)
   {
       var dropTime = e.DropTime;
       e.DropTime = new DateTime(dropTime.Year, dropTime.Month, dropTime.Day, dropTime.Hour, 0, 0);
   }

By implementing these steps, you can ensure that appointments dropped in the .NET MAUI SfScheduler will align with the exact hour.
