RadDatePicker

[Eitan]

Hi,

Created a RadDatePicker in this way:

XAML:
<telerikInput:RadDatePicker x:Name="TelerikDatePicker"
    HorizontalAlignment="Center"
    VerticalAlignment="Center"
    Width="300" >
</telerikInput:RadDatePicker>

and C#:
    var cultureInfo = new CultureInfo( "he-IL" );
    cultureInfo.DateTimeFormat.Calendar = new HebrewCalendar();
    TelerikDatePicker.Culture = cultureInfo;

The behavior is shown in the attached 2 screenshots (Select a date in the Hebrew calendar and display the result as the equivalent Gregorian date):

I would like to do the opposite behavior, i.e. to have the user select a Gregorian date and display the result as the equivalent Hebrew date.

How can I do that?

Thanks,
Eitan

Hello Eitan,

In this case I can suggest that you handle the RadDatePicker.ValueChanged event and change the RadDatePicker.ValueString property so that it matches your criteria. For example: 

private void TelerikDatePicker_ValueChanged(object sender, Telerik.Windows.Controls.ValueChangedEventArgs<object> args)
{
    var cultureInfo = new CultureInfo("he-IL");
    cultureInfo.DateTimeFormat.Calendar = new HebrewCalendar();

    DateTime date = (DateTime)args.NewValue;
    string stringValue = date.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy", cultureInfo);
    (sender as RadDatePicker).ValueString = stringValue ;
}

I hope this helps.

Regards,
