Calendar / DatePicker/First look

Example Configuration

RadDatePicker




  • The following example shows the properties that RadDatePicker exposes for customizing its user interface.

    • MinDate, MaxDate - the control will not accept dates beyond the specified range (the default one is Jan 1, 1980 - Dec 31, 2099)
    • EnableShadows - true by default. The calendar component will appear with shadow effect.
    • DatePopupButton - if the button is not visible, the Calendar popup can be opened programmatically with Javascript, or by setting ShowPopupOnFocus="true"
    • DatePopupButtonTooltip - the default value is "Open the calendar popup."
    • ShowPopupOnFocus - false by default. The textbox can be focused with the mouse or the keyboard. This functionality may not be very usable for users, which prefer entering dates manually and using the up/down arrow keys to modify the date value
    • PopupDirection - the default is BottomRight.
    • EnableScreenBoundaryDetection - true by default. The control's popup can appear on various sides, regardless of the PopupDirection property value, so that the popup is not displayed beyond the page edge.
