DateTimePicker
Represents a control that allows the user to select or type a date and a time.
The DateTimePicker control is used to allow the user to select a date and time, and to display that date and time in the specified format. The DateTimePicker control makes it easy to work with dates and times because it handles a lot of the data validation automatically.
When used to represent a date, the DateTimePicker control appears in two parts: a drop-down list with a date represented in text, and a calendar that appears when you click the down-arrow next to the list. The calendar looks like the MonthCalendar control, which can be used for selecting multiple dates.
For a full list of properties, methods and events see the API documentation.​
Features
Custom Date Formats
The DateTimePicker offers several preset formats for displaying the date and time including Long, Short, Time, DateTime, and an option for configuring a custom format.
Labels
The DateTimePicker control supports the inline Label property. This allows an application to set a label in relation to a DateTimePicker control without having to create an additional Label control.

Validation
It's easy to add validation to the DateTimePicker. Simply specify the format and the InvalidMessage property and you'll get a result like the following when a user types an invalid input:
The Mask property can also be set to provide a custom format for input.
How To
Customize the Appearance
There are several ways to customize the appearance of a DateTimePicker: use the available properties, customize the theme, or adding custom styles.
The properties that can change the appearance of a DateTimePicker (and most controls) are usually limited to BackColor, ForeColor, BorderStyle, and Font properties.
If you need to achieve some very special UI design, like the Material-3 animated underline when the TextBox gains the focus, you will have to either create a custom theme, or a theme mixin or add custom styles to the control.
Customized DateTimePicker control.
You can see in the video above a DateTimePicker with "border-radius:10px" assigned to the CssStyle property. To apply a shared style, set the CssClass property instead and add a StyleSheet file (.css) to the application either in Default.html or using the StyleSheet extender.
The video also features a simple "tada" animation using the Animation component.
