How to Navigate to Inactive Months in the .NET MAUI Calendar (SfCalendar)?
In the Syncfusion® .NET MAUI Calendar control, you can navigate to the inactive month by tapping on the inactive month’s date of SfCalendar using the SelectionChanged event.
Step 1: Add the SfCalendar control to your layout, as shown in the following code sample.
XAML
<calendar:SfCalendar x:Name="calendar"> <calendar:SfCalendar.Behaviors> <local:CalendarBehavior /> </calendar:SfCalendar.Behaviors> </calendar:SfCalendar>
Step 2: Use the SelectionChanged event of SfCalendar to navigate to an inactive month when a date is tapped, as demonstrated in the following code sample.
C#
public class CalendarBehavior : Behavior<SfCalendar>
{
private SfCalendar sfCalendar;
protected override void OnAttachedTo(SfCalendar bindable)
{
base.OnAttachedTo(bindable);
this.sfCalendar = bindable;
this.sfCalendar.SelectionChanged += SfCalendar_SelectionChanged;
}
private void SfCalendar_SelectionChanged(object sender, CalendarSelectionChangedEventArgs e)
{
DateTime tappedDate = DateTime.Parse(e.NewValue.ToString());
if (tappedDate.Month != sfCalendar.DisplayDate.Month)
{
sfCalendar.DisplayDate = tappedDate;
}
}
protected override void OnDetachingFrom(SfCalendar bindable)
{
base.OnDetachingFrom(bindable);
if (this.sfCalendar != null)
{
this.sfCalendar.SelectionChanged -= SfCalendar_SelectionChanged;
}
this.sfCalendar = null;
}
}
