Moving a booking and creating a recurrence in the schedule

In the day schedule (Reservations → Manage reservations), two gestures save a lot of time: dragging a booking to move it, and dragging across several free cells to create a recurrence. They work with the mouse as well as on a tablet.

1. Move a booking with the mouse

  1. Click the booking and keep the mouse button pressed.
  2. Drag it: a copy of the cell follows the cursor and the target cells are highlighted when the booking fits there entirely (same number of periods, all free).
  3. Release on the new time or the new court: the booking is moved and the schedule reloads.

The 19:00 booking is dragged to 21:00; the target time and court are shown next to the cursor.

To cancel along the way, press the Esc key. If the target cells are not all free, nothing is highlighted and the booking does not move.

A simple click, without dragging, always opens the booking panel. To move it to another date, open it and change the date in When and where.

2. Create a recurrence by dragging across free cells

  1. Click a free cell and, without releasing, drag to the last cell you want: you can cover several hours and several courts.
  2. Release: the Add recurrence panel opens, already filled in with the selected courts, hours and day of the week.

Pre-filled Add recurrence panel

Fill in the Recurrence text (what will be shown in the cells), the Colour and the end date, then click Add recurrence. The fields are explained in detail in the article Creating and managing recurrences.

The selection must contain free cells only: if it touches an existing booking, it is cancelled and no panel opens.

3. On a tablet or touch screen

With a finger, a normal swipe scrolls the page. To move or select, you first need a long press :

  • Long press on a booking, then drag: the booking follows your finger; lift your finger over the target cell to move it.
  • Long press on a free cell, then drag: a selection rectangle appears; lift your finger to open the panel Add recurrence.
  • Long press without dragging: this is a normal tap, which opens the booking or the new booking panel.

Keep your finger still for a short moment before dragging: if it moves too early, the page scrolls instead of moving the booking. Near the edges of the screen, the grid scrolls by itself while you drag.

These gestures only apply to the day schedule. In the fixed-hours grid, dragging to create a recurrence works with the mouse; with a finger, use the button New recurrence.
