DateEdit Vista Calendar press Today button should close the popup

created 7 years ago (modified 7 years ago)

Hi,

i use the DateEdit with Vista calendar. I know there is no "today" button visible, only at the top of the popup is a button with the current date. If i press on this current date button, i would like that the popup closes and the current date is in the editor. Same behaviour like the clear button. If i press this, the popup is closed and the editor is cleared. Can you build this with the today-button too?

Another solution would be a short cut key for the today date. i read that it should be possible to press space, but this is not working…

Thank you

Nico

Hello Nico,
You can handle the editor's Popup event and subscribe a handler to the today button's Click event:

C#
private void DateEdit1_Popup(object sender, EventArgs e)  
        {  
            PopupDateEditForm popupForm = ((sender as IPopupControl).PopupWindow as PopupDateEditForm);  
            popupForm.Calendar.TodayClick += Calendar_TodayClick;  
        }  

        private void Calendar_TodayClick(object sender, EventArgs e)  
        {  
            PopupCalendarControl calendar = (PopupCalendarControl)sender;  
            PopupDateEditForm form = (PopupDateEditForm)calendar.FindForm();  
            form.OwnerEdit.EditValue = DateTime.Now;  
            form.ClosePopup();  
        }

Let me know if this solution is helpful.
