Is the Format of the sfDatePicker adjustable at run time?

Just wondering if the Format property of the sfDatePicker is bindable and therefore can be adjusted at run time eg for presenting the date picker with dd_MM_yyyy or MM_dd_YYYY depending on the users region and the format gets binded to a variable containing this information.


Many thanks

Shaun

Hi Shaun,


Regarding Query: Is the Format of the sfDatePicker adjustable at run time?


Based on the information provided, we have reviewed your requirement, which is to change the DateFormat at runtime in the .NET MAUI DatePicker. We can confirm that it is possible to adjust the DateFormat of the .NET MAUI SfDatePicker dynamically.


We have prepared a simple sample to demonstrate how this can be achieved. You can find the sample code by following the attached link. Additionally, a code snippet is provided below for your convenience.


Code snippet:


<ContentPage.BindingContext>

    <local:ViewModel x:Name="viewModel"/>

</ContentPage.BindingContext>

<StackLayout>

    <Button x:Name="button" Clicked="picker_Clicked" Text="Change Format"/>

    <picker:SfDateTimePicker x:Name="picker" DateFormat="{Binding DateFormat}"/>

</StackLayout>

 

private void picker_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

    viewModel.DateFormat = Syncfusion.Maui.Picker.PickerDateFormat.dd_MM;

}

 

public class ViewModel : INotifyPropertyChanged

{

    public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;

    private PickerDateFormat dateFormat= PickerDateFormat.yyyy_MM_dd;

 

    public PickerDateFormat DateFormat

    {

        get { return dateFormat; }

 

        set

        {

            dateFormat = value;

            this.PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs("DateFormat"));

        }

 

    }

 

    public ViewModel()

    {

    }

}


We hope that this helps you. Please let us know if you need further assistance.
