can you give me an example how to do it in code?

for example if i have a column named stepStartTIme and i want to display it with date and Time

Hello,

Please find the attached sample where I set the Mask property of the editor. If you want to customize the shown data only when you are not in edit mode you should set the same value to the Format property.

If you need any additional assistance on the matter I will be glad to help.

OK. and how can i do it in code? no in xaml

Hi michaelgr12345,

To change the date time format in the XamDateTimeEditor form code behind you should set the EditorStyle property of the column in the XamDataGrid that contains this editor. You can try the following approach:

            Style style = new Style(typeof (XamDateTimeEditor));

            style.Setters.Add(new Setter(XamDateTimeEditor.MaskProperty, "dd/mm/yy hh:mm:ss"));

            Resources.Add(typeof (XamDateTimeEditor), style);

            grid1.FieldLayouts[0].Fields[0].Settings.EditorType = typeof(XamDateTimeEditor);

            grid1.FieldLayouts[0].Fields[0].Settings.EditAsType = typeof(DateTime);

            grid1.FieldLayouts[0].Fields[0].Settings.EditorStyle = style;

If you have any additional questions or concerns do not hesitate to ask.

Hi Elena,

How to include Milliseconds also in the DateTime displayed in the grid?

Thanks,

Poornima

hello Elena

I've tried using your example with the format dd-MMM-yy (18-Jun-2014) and received empty DateTime cells in the grid.

Is this format unsupported by the XamDateTimeEditor?

thank you
