| 1 | + | ### About | |
| 2 | + | ||
| 3 | + | *TDateLabel* is a descendant of TLabel. It overrides the Caption property and makes it read only. It also exposes two new properties: DateTime and Format. | |
| 4 | + | ||
| 5 | + | Its main caracteristics are : | |
| 6 | + | ||
| 7 | + | - DateTime allows you to assign a TDateTime value to the control. | |
| 8 | + | ||
| 9 | + | - Format allows you to define the format string to be used by the caption. | |
| 10 | + | ||
| 11 | + | The purpose/advantage of this control is to allow the developer to display a formated date/time elegantly on a form while the control still retains the value in a true TDateTime data type. This allows the developer to use all of the standard date functions (date math functions) found in the DateUtil unit. | |
| 12 | + | ||
| 13 | + | This control is useful for implementing custom calendar interfaces for day planner projects. | |
| 14 | + | ||
| 15 | + | The download contains the component, an installation package and a demo application, that illustrates the features of the component along with some instrumentation for evaluating the chart on a given system. | |
| 16 | + | ||
| 17 | + | ### Screenshot | |
| 18 | + | ||
| 19 | + | Here is an exemple of *TDateLabel*. This example shows four TDateLabels, all containing the same DateTime value, presenting the value with different formatting. The border has been turned on to give perspective to the text alignment. | |
