[Solved] How do I constrain the Dates to a range usin the DatePicker?

[Rich Gouette]

I'm using 

 

DisplayMode

="DecadeView"
But, I would like for the picker to start off by default, showing the years 1900 through 2010, and in the zoomed-out mode: meaning
the Header would show "1900" and the date year ranges displayed would start at 1890-1900 and end with the 2000-2010 range.

I'm just not seeing documentation as to how I can go about this, or if it's doable..though I suspect it is.

Thanks fellas,
Rich

Hello Rich Gouette,

The properties you need are: DisplayDate, DisplayDateStart, DisplayDateEnd. Check the posted code:

public RadDatePickerTest()
        {
            InitializeComponent();

            radDatePicker.DisplayDate = new DateTime(1900, 1, 1);
            radDatePicker.DisplayDateStart = new DateTime(1890, 1, 1);
            radDatePicker.DisplayDateEnd = new DateTime(2010, 1, 1);
        }

Thanks much for th e reply.
I can use those settings as well, but did want to see if this is possible to set as the default when the date
picker comes up:

Hello Rich Gouette,

You can try setting the DisplayMode property to "CenturyView".
