Hi,
is there a way to switch the raddatetimepicker navigation buttons so the right arrow will go backwards and the left will go forward?
i also want to set the fastnavigation button (two arrows button) number of periods through the designer.

so far i've accomplished this by:

((RadDateTimePickerCalendar)this.dtpFromTaarich.DateTimePickerElement.GetCurrentBehavior()).Calendar.Navigating +=

new CalendarNavigatingEventHandler(dtp_Navigating);

void dtp_Navigating(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.CalendarNavigatingEventArgs e)

{

if (e.Direction == Telerik.WinControls.UI.CalendarNavigationDirection.Forward)

{

if (!e.IsFastNavigation)

e.StartDate = (sender as RadCalendar).CalendarElement.View.ViewStartDate.AddMonths(-1);

else

e.StartDate = (sender as RadCalendar).CalendarElement.View.ViewStartDate.AddMonths(-12);

}

else if (!e.IsFastNavigation)

{

e.StartDate = (sender as RadCalendar).CalendarElement.View.ViewStartDate.AddMonths(1);

}

else e.StartDate = (sender as RadCalendar).CalendarElement.View.ViewStartDate.AddMonths(12);

}

hope i can do it more easily... and with less code :)

Hi Lior,

Thank you for writing.

Your solution is correct and this is an easiest way to swap the fast navigation buttons. We will consider swaping these buttons when the RightToLeft property is set to true - I have logged this as a feature request in our Public Issue Tracking System.

For the time being you should continue to use your solution. I updated your Telerik points for request and for the sharing your solution with us.

Greetings,
Peter
