Timepicker - Click -> 15 min

[Shaggy]

Hello,

i need a solution, that the user only can make time inputs in 15 minute steps. For example:

08:00
08:15
08:30
....

Is there a opportuniy, special for the arrow keys, when he clicks on it and the minutes are chosen, that the tick is 15 minutes and not 1 minute?

Greets,

Hello Zeljko,

Thank you for contacting Telerik Support.

You can restrict the user to make time inputs in 15 minute steps as follows:

public Form1()
{
    InitializeComponent();

    radTimePicker1.Step = 15;
    radTimePicker1.Value = new DateTime(1,1,1,radTimePicker1.Value.Value.Hour, 0 ,0);
    ((MaskDateTimeProvider)radTimePicker1.TimePickerElement.MaskedEditBox.Provider).MinutesStep = 15;
    radTimePicker1.TimePickerElement.MaskedEditBox.KeyPress += MaskedEditBox_KeyPress;
}

void MaskedEditBox_KeyPress(object sender, KeyPressEventArgs e)
{
    if (((MaskDateTimeProvider)radTimePicker1.TimePickerElement.MaskedEditBox.Provider).SelectedItemIndex == 2)
        e.Handled = char.IsLetterOrDigit(e.KeyChar);
}

The user is allowed to use the arrow keys for minutes navigation in 15 minutes interval. But the functionality to type in directly the minutes numbers is disabled due to the complexity of handling specific cases.

I hope this information helps. Should you have further questions, I would be glad to help.
