Show DatePicker or Calendar when clicking HyperlinkButton

[Danny Scheelings]

Hi,

I am using a HyperlinkButton to show a specific date. When the user clicks the hyperlink, the DatePicker or Calendar must be shown to select a new date for the hyperlink. Off course, when the user clicks somewhere else in the UserControl the Date control must automatically be hidden again.

Is there a way to use the RadDatePicker or RadCalendar to do this?

Thanks,
Danny

Hello Danny Scheelings,

Thank you for contacting us.

You could use IsDropDownOpen property of RadDateTimePicker control to Open the dropdown button. Attached you can find a sample I made for you to illustrate how to accomplish this.

Please let me know if this suits your needs. 
 

Kind regards,

Hi George,

Thanks for your answer. It leads me a bit into the right direction. The problem is that the datepicker should be invisible when the application starts. The calendar should de shown when I click the hyperlink and be hidden when the hyperlink is clicked again. Do you have a solution for this?

Thanks,
Danny

Hello Danny Scheelings,

Thank you for getting back to us.

You could set Visibility property of RadDateTimePicker to Visible or Collapse where it suits your needs.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you require any further information.
