26 Apr 2021 / 24 minutes to read

This section describes how to select a time from drop down time spinner and its customization options in Time Picker control.

Change dropdown alignment

You can change the alignment of the dropdown time spinner as full, center, left, right, top or bottom edge of the Time Picker by using the DropDownPlacement property. The default value of DropDownPlacement property is Auto.

NOTE

If you change the dropdown alignment by using DropDownPlacement property and there is not sufficient space, then Time Picker smartly shifts the spinner alignment.

<editors:SfTimePicker DropDownPlacement="BottomEdgeAlignedLeft" 
                      x:Name="sfTimePicker"/>
SfTimePicker sfTimePicker = new SfTimePicker();
sfTimePicker.DropDownPlacement = FlyoutPlacementMode.BottomEdgeAlignedLeft;

Alignment of drop down time spinner is changed to BottomEdgeAlignedLeft

SfTimePicker sfTimePicker = new SfTimePicker();
sfTimePicker.ShowDropDownButton = false;

Custom UI for specific cell in dropdown spinner

You can change the UI of specific hour, minutes or seconds cells in dropdown spinner by using the ItemTemplateSelector property. The DataContext of ItemTemplateSelector is SfTimePicker.

public class TimeItemTemplateSelector : DataTemplateSelector
{
    public DataTemplate DefaultTemplate { get; set; }
    public DataTemplate AlarmTemplate { get; set; }
    public DataTemplate SleepTemplate { get; set; }
    public DataTemplate GroupMeetingTemplate { get; set; }

    protected override DataTemplate SelectTemplateCore(object item, DependencyObject container)
    {
        DateTimeFieldItemInfo dateTimeField = item as DateTimeFieldItemInfo;
        if (dateTimeField.Field == DateTimeField.Hour12)
        {
            switch (dateTimeField.DateTime.Value.Hour)
            {
                case 2:
                    return SleepTemplate as DataTemplate;
                case 5:
                    return AlarmTemplate as DataTemplate;
                case 10:
                    return GroupMeetingTemplate as DataTemplate;
                case 14:
                    return GroupMeetingTemplate as DataTemplate;
                case 17:
                    return AlarmTemplate as DataTemplate;
                case 22:
                    return SleepTemplate as DataTemplate;
            }
        }

        return base.SelectTemplateCore(item, container);
    }
}

<editors:SfTimePicker TimeFieldPrepared="SfTimePicker_TimeFieldPrepared"
                      x:Name="sfTimePicker"/>
SfTimePicker sfTimePicker = new SfTimePicker();
sfTimePicker.TimeFieldPrepared = SfTimePicker_TimeFieldPrepared;

You can handle the event as follows,

/// <summary>
/// Get the ItemsSource for minute or second column.
/// </summary>
/// <returns>Return the ItemsSource for minute or second column.</returns>
private static ObservableCollection<string> GetMinutesOrSeconds(string pattern)
{
    ObservableCollection<string> minutes = new ObservableCollection<string>();
    NumberFormatInfo provider = new NumberFormatInfo();
    for (int i = 0; i < 60; i = i + 5)
    {
        if (i > 9 || pattern == "%s" || pattern == "{second.integer}" || pattern == "%m" || pattern == "{minute.integer}")
        {
            minutes.Add(i.ToString(provider));
        }
        else
        {
            minutes.Add("0" + i.ToString(provider));
        }
    }

    return minutes;
}

private void SfTimePicker_TimeFieldPrepared(object sender, DateTimeFieldPreparedEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Column != null)
    {
        //Minutes interval changed as 5.
        if (e.Column.Field == DateTimeField.Minute || e.Column.Field == DateTimeField.Second)
        {
            e.Column.ItemsSource = GetMinutesOrSeconds(e.Column.Format);
        }
        if (e.Column.Field == DateTimeField.Hour12)
        {
            e.Column.Header = "Hr";
            e.Column.ItemHeight = 60;
            e.Column.ItemWidth = 100;
        }
        else if (e.Column.Field == DateTimeField.Minute)
        {
            e.Column.Header = "Min";
            e.Column.ItemHeight = 40;
            e.Column.ItemWidth = 100;
        }
        else if (e.Column.Field == DateTimeField.Meridiem)
        {
