Hi,

Thank you for contacting us.

In the 2012.1.326.1050 version of RadCalendar the described behavior was a bug that was introduced and fixed which caused the DisplayDateChanged event to be triggered when a selection was made. By design this event should be fired when the DisplayDate property of the control is changed not when the SelectedDate is changed.

There are two possible solution for this to work in your scenario:

1. It is recommended to use the SelectionChanged that is triggered when an date is selected and add your logic in that event.
2. Or again use the SelectionChanged event but in it set the DisplayDate of the control to the SelectedDate property. This would cause the DisplayDateChanged to be triggered when a selection is made.

Hope this is helpful

Hello Vladi,

Thank you very much for the reply...

I have done all along a bad logic with this Bug ahead...

but now... for the bug i have tried the code below 

var oldTemplate = calendar.Template;
calendar.Template = null;
calendar.Template = oldTemplate;

which refreshes the calendar is this the way i used???

Please have your kind attention here...

Hi,

In the RadCalendar control when you just set its Template property the control will refresh its template. You should know that refreshing the template on every selection (in the SelectionChanged event) of the calendar could cause some issues because the hole control is reloaded. Could you describe to us in more details the scenario that causes you to refresh the hole template of the control on each selection as there may be a better approach in achieving the desired behavior?
