How to Select Previous or Next Dates Based on the Selected Date in the .NET MAUI Calendar (SfCalendar)?

In the Syncfusion .NET MAUI Calendar, select the previous and next dates based on the selected date using the SelectionChanged event of the SfCalendar.

Add the SfCalendar control in your view page and set the SelectionMode as Range as shown in the following code sample.

XAML

<ContentPage.Content>
    <calendar:SfCalendar x:Name="calendar"
                         SelectionMode="Range">
        <calendar:SfCalendar.Behaviors>
            <local:CalendarBehavior />
        </calendar:SfCalendar.Behaviors>
    </calendar:SfCalendar>
</ContentPage.Content>

In the SelectionChanged event of the SfCalendar, get the start date of the SelectedDateRange using the previous and next dates of the selected date as shown in the following code sample.

C#

private void Calendar_SelectionChanged(object sender, CalendarSelectionChangedEventArgs e)
{
    if (this.calendar.SelectedDateRange != null)
    {
        var dateRange = (CalendarDateRange)e.NewValue;
        if (dateRange.EndDate == null)
        {
            dateRange.EndDate = dateRange.StartDate.Value.AddDays(2);
            dateRange.StartDate = dateRange.StartDate.Value.AddDays(-2);
        }
    }
}
