This repository demonstrates how to increase or customize the drop‑down button size of the Syncfusion WinForms DateTimePickerAdv control.
The sample provides a simple approach to adjust the button dimensions, helping developers improve usability and align the control with custom UI requirements.
The Syncfusion WinForms DateTimePickerAdv control includes a built‑in drop‑down button for date selection.
In some applications—such as touch‑enabled systems, accessibility‑focused UIs, or modern layouts—the default button size may not be sufficient.
This sample shows how to enlarge the DateTimePickerAdv button area to create a more user‑friendly experience.
- Modifying the button size of
DateTimePickerAdv - Improving usability for touch or high‑DPI applications
- Customizing control layout without replacing the control
- Applying UI‑specific adjustments to Syncfusion WinForms controls
The DateTimePickerAdv control exposes properties and layout behaviors that allow developers to customize its visual appearance, including the size of the drop‑down button.
By adjusting these values, the control’s interaction area can be made larger and more accessible.
In this example:
- The DateTimePickerAdv control is placed on a WinForms form
- The button size is increased programmatically
- The modified control displays a larger clickable drop‑down button
This approach avoids the need for custom drawing or replacing the control entirely.
This sample serves as a practical reference for developers who need enhanced control over the visual behavior of the WinForms DateTimePickerAdv component.
