Ability to Programmatically Set Initial Picker Tab in SfDateTimePicker

The current behavior of the SfDateTimePicker in .NET MAUI always defaults to displaying the DatePicker tab when the picker dialog opens. In several application scenarios, especially those focused on time-based inputs, the TimePicker is used far more frequently than the DatePicker. Because there is no existing API to control which tab is shown initially, users are forced to manually switch tabs each time they open the picker.

 

This request proposes adding the ability for users to define the initial active tab programmatically, ensuring the control aligns better with the app’s workflow and user expectations.


Introduce a mechanism that enables selecting the default tab:

 

Option 1: New Property

InitialTab = PickerTab.Date | PickerTab.Time;


Option 2: New Method

SetActivePickerTab(PickerTab.Date);

SetActivePickerTab(PickerTab.Time);


Either solution would allow developers to specify or change the currently active picker tab.
