Hello Master Roberto,
I have a very minor wish. Is it possible to add date format property of DatePicker control?
May be there is another way to do it. So, please correct me if I am wrong
.
Thanks in advance.
With best regards.

I put set date command in the start up of my app. It works for textbox with date type, but in my client's computer I found date picker control showing date in m / d / y format. I changed date format from Regional control of control panel. Date picker format didn't change. Funny thing is that it's working fine in my laptop
With best regards.

Datepicker is based on a Windows control (datetimepicker).
It works automatically according control panel's regional settings.
I'm not sure if that behavior could be changed. It should be researched.

Yes. It can be done.
It is in my TODO list.

Nice
The problem in date picker is, once you start typing the date, the cursor won't move to the next sub-control (for example month to day, day to year). If we want to type "12-01-2000", we have to type 12, then right arrow, then type 01 then right arrow, then 2000.
Therefore, I prefer date text box, in which we can just type 12012000.
