Language for MonthCalendar - Editors for WPF Forum

Posted 13 years ago by Simone

Version: 10.2.0532

Hi,

I'm using the month-calendar-control in my application.
The month names are german, but the week names (mo, th, we ...) and the Today-Button doesn't change to german.
Is this a bug? What can I do to see everything in german?

Best regards
Simone Rieß

Hi Simone,

This is a generally known issue with WPF when dealing with value converters, which are used for things like the week names. This page describes the solution, which is to set the Language property appropriately. In that page, they set it globally though, which is what you probably want to do also. Which looks like

public partial class App : Application
{
    static App()
    {
        FrameworkElement.LanguageProperty.OverrideMetadata(
            typeof(FrameworkElement),
            new FrameworkPropertyMetadata(
                XmlLanguage.GetLanguage(CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.IetfLanguageTag)));
    }
}
