Over and above the extensive visual enhancements incorporated into Solutions::Schedule 2.0 for .NET the Standard Edition includes:

  Independent Cell Formatting features include font, foreground colour and background colour, alignment, fill types and image.

  List view columns can incorporate different format types including Text, Check Boxes, Images in any combination.

  List view Column Data Types include: Text, DateTime, Boolean and Image. 

  Column Designer - In the List View area, one or more columns can be added to the list through the Columns Collection editor (available from the property inspector) at design time, or through code at runtime.

  Copy TimeBar, which when invoked provides a keyboard short-cut  with a click and drag action to copy one or more TimeBars simultaneously.

  The ruler presentation is split into two areas, typically the top section describing the date and the lower section describing the incremental time scale. The top section textual presentation can be customized with a text string using the ruler title property.

  The lower section of the Ruler is an incremental Time Scale represented by Major and Minor divisions. Custom time values can be implemented in a schedule by manipulating the Ruler Value Points represented by the Major and Minor divisions.

  Displaying the starting date and ending Date in time bars offers scheduling professionals a quick visual reference reducing potential risks for schedule conflicts. 

  Dead zones are custom areas of the schedule defined as areas where an appointment cannot be created, moved or sized into. Custom areas are discrete segments of the schedule which can coloured offering quick visual presentation of reserved areas.

  Adding a visual reference point for the current date and time in a schedule is simple by using the Current Time Line feature. Colour settings for the Current Time line give developers added flexibility in the overall presentation.

  Header items are ideal for adding category definitions to a list of resources or incorporating special notes and the like. Full formatting features are available to List Header items.

  List view Line Items can be formatted with unique and alternating line colour.

  The List view and Schedule area (TimeBars) support standard Multi-Select operations - click and drag to select a group, shift click and control click selections.

  List items can incorporate the use of a Pre-Column, wich can be identified with an arrow, zero or one-based numbers or an image for a selected item.

  Enhancing edit functions, a selected time bar may be identified by a unique colour.

  The items in the dbiSchedule control can be Sorted based on the values in any column or combination of columns in the list area of the control.

  The Tag Property (Tags are typically of type Object) can be an ideal candidate for persisting relationships between an object and its record.

  TimeBar Activity displays a time bar within a timebar ideally suited for visually presenting  the percentage of completion of an activity. 

  TimeBar Collection - the dbiSchedule controls maintains a collection logging actions attributed to: Creating a Time Bar, Moving a Time Bar, Sizing a Time Bar, Erasing a Time Bar, Linking a Time Bar, Unlinking a Time Bar. The Standard Edition maintains the last action performed.  (the Enterprise Edition records as many actions as the control's history size has been set to) 

  TimeBar Fill Styles offer many variations for branding and setting unique visual time bar category settings.

  TimeBar Linking styles - One to One TimeBar linking in any combination of: Start to Start, Start to End, End to Start and End to End with Standard, Reciprocal or Direct Links. Link lines can also be given unique colours enhancing visual presentation of TimeBar relationships.

  Managing schedule conflicts is an important element in resource scheduling and the dbiSchedule TimeBar Overlap feature assists with visual identifying potential conflicts. 

  TimeBar Split Edit - indicated by the scissors mouse cursor, this edit mode effectively splits a TimeBar into two sections at the cursor position.

  Each time bar may contain two unique text fields aligned to either side of a time bar. Time bars aslo support word wrapping and Text into View ensuring time bar descriptions are visible even when a whole time bar is not.

  Time Lines are a subtle way to give a schedule presentation  definition allowing the eye to follow through the schedule on a particular point. Time lines extend vertically through the schedule area and are drawn along the major time segments.

  The list object in the dbiSchedule control acts as both a List View and a Tree View. 

  Developers can effectively add Zoom-in / Zoom-out capabilities in their software by programmatically changing the value of the TimeDistance property of the dbiSchedule control.
