Hello,

you can try to use the following approach:

/* scheduler.attachEvent("onClick",change_lightbox);
  scheduler.attachEvent("onDblClick",change_lightbox);
*/

scheduler.attachEvent("onBeforeLightbox",change_lightbox);

function change_lightbox(id){ 
  var ev = this.getEvent(id); 
  if (ev.aggregate == 'Y') 
  scheduler.config.lightbox.sections=[  
  { name:"my_aggregate", height:200, map_to:"text", type:"my_desc" , focus:true} 
  ];  
  else 
  scheduler.config.lightbox.sections=[  
  { name:"description", height:200, map_to:"text", type:"my_desc" , focus:true}, 
  { name:"execs", height:200, map_to:"text", type:"my_execs" , focus:false}, 
  { name:"time", height:72, type:"time", map_to:"auto"}  
  ];  
  scheduler._lightbox = null;
  return true; 
}

That works, thanks.

Just one additional question, is there a way to turn off the save and delete buttons and just leave the cancel button maybe renamed 'close'/

It is possible. Please see the sample dhtmlxScheduler/samples/03_extensions/14_readonly_event.html. 

But solution provided in the previous answer won't work with readonly extension. 

I saw this dhtmlxScheduler/doc/html/dhtmlxscheduler/dhtmlxscheduler___behaviors.html which allows for a readonly attribute in the event - in my case, I'm doing this in XML to load the schedule

It sort of works a couple of times then fails. This is with the code to show different lightboxes

Try to move the scheduler.attachEvent("onBeforeLightbox",change_lightbox); handler after init method call. Locally it's solved the issue with readonly extension.
