WPF Calendar (CalendarEdit) Implementation Guide

The CalendarEdit control provides a comprehensive calendar UI for selecting and managing dates in WPF applications. It supports single and multiple date selection, date range restrictions, customizable appearance, and powerful navigation modes from day to decade views.

• Calendar UI: Building calendar controls with month/year navigation
• Date Restrictions: Implementing date range constraints or blocking specific dates
• Scheduling: Creating booking, appointment, or event selection interfaces
• Date Manipulation: Using calendar methods for date arithmetic (add days, months, etc.)

Quick Start

Basic XAML Setup

<Window x:Class="CalendarDemo.MainWindow"
        xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
        xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
        xmlns:syncfusion="http://schemas.syncfusion.com/wpf"
        Title="Calendar Demo" Height="450" Width="500">
    <Grid>
        <!-- Basic calendar control -->
        <syncfusion:CalendarEdit Name="calendarEdit"
                                 Height="250"
                                 Width="300"
                                 VerticalAlignment="Center"
                                 HorizontalAlignment="Center"/>
    </Grid>
</Window>

Basic C# Setup

using Syncfusion.Windows.Shared;

CalendarEdit calendarEdit = new CalendarEdit();
calendarEdit.Height = 250;
calendarEdit.Width = 300;

// Get selected date
DateTime selectedDate = calendarEdit.Date;

// Set selected date programmatically
calendarEdit.Date = new DateTime(2024, 3, 15);

Common Patterns

Pattern 1: Single Date Selection with Range Restriction

// Allow only dates in March 2024
calendarEdit.MinDate = new DateTime(2024, 3, 1);
calendarEdit.MaxDate = new DateTime(2024, 3, 31);
calendarEdit.Date = new DateTime(2024, 3, 15);

// Get the selected date
DateTime selectedDate = calendarEdit.Date;

Pattern 2: Multiple Date Selection

// Enable multiple date selection
calendarEdit.AllowMultiplySelection = true;

// Select multiple dates by dragging or Ctrl+clicking
// Retrieve all selected dates
var selectedDates = calendarEdit.SelectedDates;

Pattern 3: Block Specific Dates (Blackout Dates)

// Block specific date ranges
calendarEdit.BlackoutDates.Add(new DateTime(2024, 3, 5));
calendarEdit.BlackoutDates.Add(new DateTime(2024, 3, 20));

// Users cannot select these dates
calendarEdit.Date = new DateTime(2024, 3, 15);

Pattern 4: Customize Calendar Appearance

using System.Windows.Media;

// Customize colors
calendarEdit.Foreground = Brushes.Blue;
calendarEdit.Background = Brushes.White;
calendarEdit.MouseOverForeground = Brushes.Red;
calendarEdit.MouseOverBackground = Brushes.Lavender;

// Customize header
calendarEdit.HeaderBackground = Brushes.Green;
calendarEdit.HeaderForeground = Brushes.Yellow;
