inserting a button in date picker

[avik]

i want to incorporate a button in the date picker itself on click of which current date is populated

Hello Avik,

It sounds like you wish to have something similar to a Reset button that will reset the value of RadDateTimePicker. You do not need to include that in the ControlTemplate of RadDateTimePicker.
You can simply use a button aside your instance of RadDateTimePicker that will change the SelectedValue of the picker. SelectedValue property is of type DateTime.

For example:

private void btnReset_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            this.picker.SelectedValue = DateTime.Today;
        }

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,
Dani
