The newly introduced timeline resource grouping feature is a discrete view in our Flutter event calendar widget. It allows you to group appointments based on the available resources in the timeline view of the Calendar widget. This feature is available in our 2020 Volume 3 release.

Through this feature, you can group appointments and time regions by row based on the allocated resources in the timeline view. This feature also supports customization, allowing you to assign unique styles to the resource view.

Resource sharing

There are many occasions where multiple resources will share the same event. Any edit in the shared event will be reflected in the associated resources. For example, more than one person can participate in an event as shown in the following screenshot.

You can assign a resource to an appointment by setting the resourceIds property of the Appointment. Multiple resources can be assigned to an appointment.
