selection_range() [1/2]

xtd::forms::selection_range xtd::forms::month_calendar::selection_range ( ) const

noexcept

Gets the selected range of dates for a month calendar control.

Returns

A xtd::forms::selection_range with the start and end dates of the selected range.

Remarks

Setting this property is functionally equivalent to using the xtd::forms::month_calendar::set_selection_range method. You can set the start and end dates separately by setting either the xtd::forms::month_calendar::selection_start or xtd::forms::month_calendar::selection_end properties. You cannot change the start and end dates by setting the xtd::forms::selection_range::start or xtd::forms::selection_range::end property values of the xtd::forms::month_calendar::selection_range property. You should use xtd::forms::month_calendar::selection_start, xtd::forms::month_calendar::selection_end, or xtd::forms::month_calendar::set_selection_range.

If the Start property value of the xtd::forms::month_calendar::selection_range is greater than its xtd::forms::selection_rande::end property value, the dates are swapped; the xtd::forms::selection_range::end property value becomes the starting date, and xtd::forms::selection_range::start property value becomes the end date.
