I have datetimeeditors configured to display time only for a start and end time. I have code behind the form which compares start to end and if end is earlier (i.e. user enters 10:00 PM start and 2:00 AM finish) then it adds one day to the end time (so 06-14-12 2:00 AM becomes 06-15-12 2:00 AM)..
There is a drop down calendar enabled on the editor. However, if the user opens the drop down calendar and selects a different date (i.e. they meant to enter 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM so they need to reverse the action of the code behind the form) the date in the control's value does NOT change.
How can I allow the user to alter the underlying date using the calendar while only displaying and allowing direct editing of the masked time portion?
Hello ellswrth,
If I understand well your scenario, the mentioned behavior is expected (it is by design) when you are using MaksInput and FormatString to display only the TIME. If you want to achieve desired behavior maybe you could handle ultraDateTimeEditor1_BeforeDropDown() event and using MonthCalandar. Please take a look at the attached sample and video file for more details and let me know if you have any questions.
Regards
The sample indeed does what I need - I'll invest some time in understanding how it works and I think it will meet my needs.
Thanks!
Thanks for your feedback. Please do not hesitate to write me if you have any questions.
