I am using SetAutoSize(TRUE).
Now when i resize the window to a normal size it looks like

Now if i resize this to medium size it looks like :

The PROBLEM IS WITH THE FOLLOWING:
If i resize it to a max size, then i can see only 1 line of minimonths...when actually i expect it to be filled properly and show me 12 months (which is my range) . WHAT should i do to see the 12 months in this size ???

Hi,

Maybe you call SetAutoSize(FALSE) later ? Can't reproduce it with our sample :(

Please find the code attached and also the .exe file.

If you execute this and try to resize the window (which contains a date picker control), then you can reproduce the problem of resizing.

When you maximize the windows, it only shows one row for months, where actually there is ample space to display 12 months.

Works fine in following case :

NOT WORKING in following case :

Hello,

I checked code and actually it is designed :( Don't use SerRange if you don't need it

. Second row need show same months but it will go out your range.

Hi,

Lets patch CSize CXTPDatePickerControl::SetGridDimentions(CRect rcClient) method for 12 months case:

add this

if (nTotalMaxRangeMonths == 12 && m_nColumns >= 6 && m_nRows >= 2)
   {
    m_nColumns = 6;
    m_nRows = 2;
   }

before while (m_nRows * m_nColumns > nTotalMaxRangeMonths).

Unfortunately this algo it not works properly in many cases.

I modified it and add new function

//allow scrolling between FirstDay and LastDay and try to show initial visible range between FirstVisibleDay and LastVisibleDay

virtual void SetDesiredVisibleAndFullRange(COleDateTime FirstVisibleDay, COleDateTime LastVisibleDay,

COleDateTime FirstDay, COleDateTime LastDay);

and modified version of virtual void SetGridSize(int nRows, int nCols, BOOL bRestrictMode = FALSE);

if bRestrictMode Picker keep given matrix nRows x nCols as max for layout

Be in Release 13.1
