Without place a TextBox over a Calendar control and hiding/showing controls and synchronizing values between controls, is it possible to have a Textbox and a button next to it, that when clicked, shows the calendar dropdown?
I would use the DateTimePicker control, however I want to set the value to NULL without having to show & use the checkbox.
I also want that the control is empty without any default date which is grayed out.
Implementing a custom control based on this answer is trivial, but I was wondering if a calendar dropdown can be shown without the need to have a hidden DateTimePicker.
This is pretty much the definition of a DateTimePicker...

On the datagridview cellclick event i have ploted two controls,one is a combobox that displays weekdays and
other is a datetimepicker control.
By default both the controls are left aligned hence i am not able to view the date inside datetimepicker control.
Hence i changed the property of datetimepicker control to:
dtPickerForFolder.DropDownAlign = LeftRightAlignment.Right;
But the problem is if i set this property i am able to see the date inside datetimepicker control in this format:
PM02:57:12.That is in a reverse format.
How to solve this issue?
I am not very good in WinForms, but probably you should add two controls in some container. In WPF it could be StackPanel or something. I think WinForms has something similar
Once I successfully validate user data in a TextBox (using TextChanged EventHandler), I'd like to programmatically tab to the next input control. I know I could hard code the name and do
Score2.Focus(Windows.UI.Xaml.FocusState.Keyboard);
but I've got 20 TextBox controls on the page page and I'd like to use the same EventHandler for all of them.
While it may be possible (iterate through the page's control inspecting their tab order and selecting the appopriate next control), I would recommend against it. It will irritate your user if they leave a text box to go back and correct a previous field but your app decides it knows better and gives focus to another field.
I have a dropdown which consists of all the controls names like textbox , label , combobox , dropdown list...etc.
if in the starting one label control is placed on form,on user selection of control name in dropdown list ,that label control should be replaced with the user selected control dynamically...like this,what ever control user wants to keep can keep just by selecting dropdow
i need the controls to be dynamic.that is only the requirement.whenever a person ,say admin want to change the controls from CMS,he can easily change with the selection.
You'll need to use some Javascript magic for this. Whats the specific requirement?
I am creating a web application in which i have to select a date. I am using Calendar control. But it occupies too much space and other labels and text boxes are not shown in proper alignment. Is there anything I Can do in which when i click on an image, the calendar control opens, but on the textbox, so that it does not occupy any space.

One possible solution is to use a purely client side date picker, which displays a "pop-in" calendar when the TextBox is selected. Search the web for "date picker" to find tons of JavaScript implementations, including the jQuery UI Datepicker.
I have a datepicker control that I am using to set a date field in a gridview control, my datepicker shows a date and a button to display a calendar you can use to pick a date. This works great on its own but when I add this to a gridview the calendar pops up and the columns and rows cover up parts of the calendar. Setting the ZIndex for the calendar doesn't help because the other rows are on different panels? How can I get around this? I tried raising the ZIndex of the VisualParent but no luck.
Update, the gridview is very standard, 4 columns one of which is a date column, the datatemplate for that column creates a datepicker which initially looks like a text box and a button, the button is placed on a canvas panel and when clicked a calendar is added to the canvas. The canvas is the only panel that allows its children to stretch over its own boundaries so the button is 10 x 10 or so and the calendar is 200 x 200. When the calendar pops up it normally just covers up adjacent fields but when placed on a gridview each cell of the gridview that is "after" the datepicker covers up the calendar. I'm supposing I need to raise the zindex of my cell but I can't find a way to do this?
Could you provide more info about gridview and datepicker? Especially are they your custom controls or do they belong to any open source or commercial libraries or separate?
You also mentioned that DataTemplate has Canvas as a panel. Even though a Canvas can contain large elements, it does not necessarily show all of its children. This may or may not relate to your problem, though.
P.S. Sorry I had to post this as an answer. My reputation does not allow me to comment?
Wow, this should be done using a popup or an expander.
