2 mins read

In WPF Calendar, you can select the date using right click operation through MouseRightButtonDown and PreviewMouseMove events as per the following code example.

XAML

<syncfusion:CalendarEdit  PreviewMouseMove="CalendarEdit_PreviewMouseMove" MouseRightButtonDown="CalendarEdit_MouseRightButtonDown">
</syncfusion:CalendarEdit>

C#

// Occurs When the Mouse Right Button is clicked
private void CalendarEdit_MouseRightButtonDown(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
        {        if((!(Keyboard.IsKeyDown(Key.LeftCtrl)))&&(!(Keyboard.IsKeyDown(Key.RightCtrl))))
            (sender as CalendarEdit).SelectedDates.Clear();          
           DayCell s = e.Source as DayCell;           
            if (s != null)
            {              
                (sender as CalendarEdit).Date = s.Date.ToDateTime((sender as CalendarEdit).Calendar);
                (sender as CalendarEdit).SelectedDates.Add((sender as CalendarEdit).Date);
            } 
        }      
// Occurs When the cursor moves to the selected area 
private void CalendarEdit_PreviewMouseMove(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.MouseDevice.RightButton == MouseButtonState.Pressed)
            {
                DayCell s = e.Source as DayCell;
                if (s != null)
                {                   
                    (sender as CalendarEdit).SelectedDates.Add(s.Date.ToDateTime((sender as CalendarEdit).Calendar));
                }
            }
        }
