[Solved] Proper Localisation for scheduler

[Markus]

Hi

In your demo even when switching to Chinese the Scheduler still displays "Mon 6/10, Tue 6/11" in american formatting.

Bug? How can I also apply localisation to this?

Many thanks

Hello Markus,

Date formatting is a matter of globalization which is different from localization. To change the date formatting you should set the corresponding culture as described in this help topic.

Hi Alexander

Thank you for your reply. I did try this in an example: http://dojo.telerik.com/IPaXi

It changes the day names yes, so "Tu" is now "Di" (for "Dienstag" in German) but! the dates are still american where it says "Di 6/11" -> the month comes first.

In European cultures the date should be 11.6, 12.6, 13.6 (for 11th of June, 12th of June etc.)

Is this not properly implemented yet? If not how can I change it?

Thanks

Hi Markus,

I see that you refer to the dateHeader of the Scheduler. It uses custom format which can be changed via dateHeaderTemplate:

• http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/ui/scheduler#configuration-dateHeaderTemplate

We use custom format because there is no pre-defined format for this in the Microsoft internalization files which we use to generate Kendo UI cultures. You may see what information the culture file contains here:

• http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/framework/globalization/definecultureinfo
