[DefaultValue(null)]
[Parameter]

Property Value

Type	Default	Description
String	null	The format pattern. If it is not set, the short date format is applied.

Remarks

At runtime, use the Format property to format the date editor value in edit mode when the editor is focused, and use the DisplayFormat property to format the editor’s display value when the editor is not focused. If the DisplayFormat property is not set, 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.

To specify the value format in markup, use the DxDateEditSettings.Format property.

The IDateEditSettings interface allows you to get and customize settings of a date editor at runtime. You can get editor settings in the following ways:

• Call the GetColumnEditSettings method to get editor settings of the column bound to the specified data source field.

  Important

  You need to enclose your code between BeginUpdate and EndUpdate method calls to change values of Grid component parameters outside the Grid component markup. Otherwise, an exception occurs.

  var dateEditSettings = e.Grid.GetColumnEditSettings<IDateEditSettings>("HireDate");
  if(dateEditSettings != null) {
      e.Grid.BeginUpdate();
      dateEditSettings.Format = "d";
      e.Grid.EndUpdate();
  }
  

• Handle the CustomizeFilterRowEditor event to customize a cell editor in the filter row.

  void Grid_CustomizeFilterRowEditor(GridCustomizeFilterRowEditorEventArgs e) {
      if(e.EditSettings is IDateEditSettings dateEditSettings)
          dateEditSettings.Format = "d";
  }
  

• Handle the CustomizeDataRowEditor event to customize a cell editor in a data row.

  void Grid_CustomizeDataRowEditor(GridCustomizeDataRowEditorEventArgs e) {
      if(e.EditSettings is IDateEditSettings dateEditSettings)
          dateEditSettings.Format = "d";
  }
