    Hello,

    how can i change the Backcolor at SpecialDays?
    I read a xml file and create specialdays about this information automatically.
    When i create the specialdays with the following code, then i can not see the Day-Number.

    public void date_eintrag(string tick_imput, string text, int color)
         {            
             long tick = Convert.ToInt64(tick_imput);
             DateTime time = new DateTime(tick);
             Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadCalendarDay day = new Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadCalendarDay();
             Telerik.WinControls.RadHostItem item = new Telerik.WinControls.RadHostItem(new System.Windows.Forms.Control());
             item.BackColor = Color.Transparent;
             item.ForeColor = Color.Black;
             item.Text = time.Day.ToString();
             day.Date = time;
             day.TemplateItem = item;
             radCalendar1.SpecialDays.Add(day);
         }



    How is the right way for this function?



    Thanks in advance,

    Hi Ronny,

    Thank you for writing.

    Here is how to add a RadCalendarDay and change its BackColor:
    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
     
        DateTime time = DateTime.Now.AddDays(2);
        Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadCalendarDay day = new Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadCalendarDay(time);
        radCalendar1.SpecialDays.Add(day);
        radCalendar1.ElementRender += radCalendar1_ElementRender;
    }
     
    void radCalendar1_ElementRender(object sender, RenderElementEventArgs e)
    {
        if (radCalendar1.SpecialDays.Contains(e.Day, new MyComparer()))
        {
            e.Element.BackColor = Color.Red;
        }
        else
        {
            e.Element.ResetValue(LightVisualElement.BackColorProperty, Telerik.WinControls.ValueResetFlags.Local);
        }
    }
     
    class MyComparer : IEqualityComparer<RadCalendarDay>
    {
        public bool Equals(RadCalendarDay day1, RadCalendarDay day2)
        {
            if (DateTime.Compare(day1.Date.Date, day2.Date.Date) == 0)
            {
                return true;
            }
            else
            {
                return false;
            }
        }
     
        public int GetHashCode(RadCalendarDay day)
        {
            return day.GetHashCode();
        }
    }

    Let me know how this works for you.

    Regards,
