Setting SelectorHeader from code-behind

[Siebe]

EDIT: Sorry, I accidentally posted this in WP8 -- I am using the Windows 8 controls. I can't seem to find a way to move or delete the original post, though :-)

Hello,

I am initializing a new instance of a RadDatePicker from C# code (i.e. "code-behind"), like so:

var control = new RadDatePicker();
control.SelectorHeader = "Foo";
// .. etc ..

However, when I set the SelectorHeader to a string, it does not show up in the selector popup. Instead, it will essentially do .ToString() on whatever the current DataContext is. When I set the SelectorHeader via XAML, like so:

<telerik:RadDatePicker ... SelectorHeader="Foo" ... />

It does work as expected. I've also tried setting a Binding, using control.SetBinding(RadDatePicker.SelectorHeaderProperty, ...), but that also fails. How can I set the SelectorHeader from code?

Cheers,
Siebe Tolsma

Hello Siebe,

Thank you for contacting us.

I did a local test with this scenario and everything is working as expected on our side. For your convenience I have attached a sample project. Can you take a look and check if it works on your side too, and if yes - can you modify it, in order to reproduce the issue?

I am looking forward to your reply.
