How to customize the UIDatePicker

Question

I am using a datepicker. Now, what i have to do is to show day, date, month and year only. Is there any way to do that. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

You cannot customize the UIDatePicker instead you can change the mode it appears Try any of the following as per your requirement

1. UIDatePickerModeTime,
   // Displays hour, minute, and optionally AM/PM designation depending on the locale setting (e.g. 6 | 53 | PM)

2. UIDatePickerModeDate, // Displays month, minute, and year depending on the locale setting (e.g. November | 15 | 2007)

3. UIDatePickerModeDateAndTime,
   // Displays date, hour, minute, and optionally AM/PM designation depending on the locale setting (e.g. Wed Nov 15 | 6 | 53 | PM)

4.UIDatePickerModeCountDownTimer
// Displays hour and minute (e.g. 1 | 53)

Happy Coding.
