DatePicker Styles and Templates

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

This topic describes the styles and templates for the DatePicker control. You can modify the default ControlTemplate to give the control a unique appearance. For more information, see Customizing the Appearance of an Existing Control by Using a ControlTemplate.

DatePicker Parts

The following table lists the named parts for the DatePicker control.

DatePicker Part

Type

DatePicker Style Properties

The following table lists the Style properties of the DatePicker control. You must set the TargetType property when you create a Style.

Property Name

Target Type

Description

CalendarStyle

Example

The following example shows how to add a custom style as a StaticResource. For more information, see Customizing the Appearance of an Existing Control by Using a ControlTemplate. In this example, the StaticResource refers to an x:Key attribute value that you must add to the Style element when you modify it for your project.

<DatePicker x:Name="datePicker1"
    Style="{StaticResource newDatePickerStyle}" />

Default Style and Template

The following shows the XML namespace mappings that you have to specify when you work with styles and templates.

<!-- XML Namespace mappings. -->
xmlns:vsm="clr-namespace:System.Windows;assembly=System.Windows"
xmlns:controls="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Controls;assembly=System.Windows.Controls"
Important noteImportant Note:

The default templates for controls in Silverlight 4 still use the Silverlight 3-style prefixes, such as controls: and data: instead of sdk:. This is because the default control templates support Silverlight 3 and Silverlight 4 simultaneously. For more information, see Prefixes and Mappings for Silverlight Libraries.

NoteNote:

The default templates still specify the vsm: XML namespace mapping for the VisualStateManager element for legacy reasons. You can however, use the VisualStateManager element without specifying the vsm: mapping.

The following XAML shows the default styles and templates for the DatePicker control.
