Question

I m using WinUI3/Windows App SDK 1.3 - XAML/C# My problem is that most UIs today have a de facto "Today" button on their calendar controls. In WASDK/WinUI, the control is called "CalendarView" and works great. Unfortunately, it does not have a "Today" button that when clicked, should scroll the calendar to today s date.

I already have a simple button atop the CalendarView, but looking into the documentations from Microsoft, there s no functionality for what I m trying to achieve.

Here s the default CalendarView control: Exhibit A

Now here s the calendar with my button: Exhibit B

What I would like to do is when I click on the "Today" button, the calendar will automatically update itself to scroll into today s date. Example, the calendar is currently displaying the month of December 2050, when I click on today button, the calendar should auto-scroll back to the current month, day and year.

Any guidance or tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

In the C# code, create a function to retrieve the current date and scroll the calendar view to today s date.

private void TodayButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
  // Get the current date
  DateTime today = DateTime.Today;

  // Scroll the CalendarView to today s date
  calendarView.ChangeView(today, null, null);
}

In the XAML code, link the "Today" button to this function.

<Button x:Name="TodayButton" Content="Today" Click="TodayButton_Click" />

CalendarView.SetDisplayDate(DateTimeOffset.Now);
