When Orientation is "RenderInRows" (the default), the days are laid out horizontally, in rows. Three values of the MonthLayout property are designed for showing a single month using this horizontal orientation:

• When MonthLayout = "Layout_7columns_x_6rows" and Orientation = "RenderInRows", each row represents a single week:

• When MonthLayout = "Layout_14columns_x_3rows" and Orientation = "RenderInRows", each row represents two weeks:

• When MonthLayout = "Layout_21columns_x_2rows" and Orientation = "RenderInRows", each row represents three weeks:

When Orientation is "RenderInColumns", the days are laid out vertically, in columns. Three values of the MonthLayout property are designed for showing a single month using this vertical orientation:

• When MonthLayout = "Layout_7rows_x_6columns" and Orientation = "RenderInColumns", each column represents a single week:

• When MonthLayout = "Layout_14rows_x_3columns" and Orientation = "RenderInColumns", each column represents two weeks:

• When MonthLayout = "Layout_21rows_x_2columns" and Orientation = "RenderInColumns", each column represents three weeks:

The dimensions of the day matrix are not limited to the 6 possible values of the MonthLayout property. You can set the number of rows and columns separately using the SingleViewRows and SingleViewColumns properties. For example, the following screen shot shows an entire year in a single matrix on a RadCalendar with SingleViewRows = 7 and SingleViewColumns = 53:

Note
When using the SingleViewRows and SingleViewColumns properties, the day matrix typically does not focus on a single month. To control the first week that appears in the resulting calendar, set the FocusedDate property to a day in the first month you want to appear at the beginning of the calendar.
