Hello Ian,

You can style most of the element properties within XamarinForms (see Styling).

However, to change layout, you'll need to use a custom renderer and access the native Android CalendarView.

The Android Custom Renderer and Android CalendarView Customizations article (see "SetTextPosition" method, this would be TextPosition in C#) will help you set that up.

If you have any trouble implementing it, reply back with your custom renderer class and I'll investigate directly.

Hi Lance,

I got this working...

protected override void OnElementChanged(ElementChangedEventArgs<RadCalendar> e)

{

base.OnElementChanged(e);

var filter = new CalendarDayCellFilter

{

CellType = Com.Telerik.Widget.Calendar.CalendarCellType.Date

};

var style = new CalendarDayCellStyle

{

Filter = filter

TextPosition = new Java.Lang.Integer(4 | 8)

};

Control.AddDayCellStyle(style);

}

But how does one access CalendarElement.AlignRight given that it's not a static? At present, I'm using raw integers.
