Property Value

Type	Default	Description
String	String.Empty	The format pattern.

Remarks

Use the DisplayFormat property to format the Date Edit’s display value when the editor is not focused, and use Format property to format the editor’s value in edit mode when the editor is focused. If the DisplayFormat property is not set, the Format is applied in display and edit modes.

Refer to the Standard Date and Time Format Strings and Custom Date and Time Format Strings help topics for more information about supported formats.

Date Values

The following example applies the long date format in display mode and the short date format in edit mode:

<DxDateEdit @bind-Date="@DateTimeValue" DisplayFormat="D" Format="d"></DxDateEdit>

@code {
    DateTime DateTimeValue { get; set; } = DateTime.Now;
}

Run Demo: Date Edit - Display Format

Time Values

If you add a time section to the Date Edit, you can also use the DisplayFormat property to format the time value.

The following example applies the full date long time format in display mode and the full date short time format in edit mode:

<DxDateEdit @bind-Date="@DateTimeValue" 
            TimeSectionVisible="true" 
            DisplayFormat="F" 
            Format="f">
</DxDateEdit>

@code {
    DateTime DateTimeValue { get; set; } = DateTime.Now;
}

Scroll Picker Mode

If the datepicker is displayed as a scroll picker, use the ScrollPickerFormat property to define a date format for each scroll picker part (a day, month, and year).

<DxDateEdit @bind-Date="@DateTimeValue" PickerDisplayMode="DatePickerDisplayMode.ScrollPicker" 
            ScrollPickerFormat="dddd MMMM yyyy"></DxDateEdit>

@code {
    DateTime DateTimeValue { get; set; } = DateTime.Now;
}
