Demonstrates showing multiple months.

The calendar can show more than one month. Use these properties to set up this feature:

  • MultiMonthRowCount – When 2 or higher, it shows multiple months in rows (stacked). It accepts values from 1 to 6.
  • MultiMonthColumnCount – When 2 or higher, it shows multiple months in columns (side-by-side). It accepts values from 1 to 6.
  • MultiMonthOrdering – When you show 2 or more months in both rows and columns, the months will draw sequentially across each row or down each column depending on this property.
  • MultiMonthTitleFormat – Each month has its own month title. You can customize the month and year with this property. In addition, DateTimeFormatInfo supplies the month names and the order of Month and Year.
  • MultiMonthHeaderHorizontalAlign – The horizontal alignment of the month name and year within the month header.

If you want to change the default style sheets used for the container of the months and the title, their styles are defined in the [web app]\DES\Appearance\Date And Time\Calendar.css file.
