Edited Issue: DateTimePicker spinner problem [PLUS] [22515]

Hello,

im currently using the trial of the plus Edition, because i needed the 3.1 fixes for the datetimepicker.

Now a different problem exists:
If i click on one part of the picker, for example minutes, and use the spinner-button to increase or decrease the value, it loses focus after the first click (first click works fine and increases the correct portion) and increases the day-portion instead (because thats the part that gets changed if nothing is focussed).

Also i have a strange problem with the min / max feature of the datetimepicker.
I have set the minimum in code behind to {20.03.2017 12:00:30} and max to {21.03.2017 02:00:00}.
Now if i manually set the value to for example {20.03.2017 14:30:34} i get the following exception, which makes no sense:

System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: "Value must be greater than MinValue of 20.03.2017 12:00:30"

Interestingly setting it to lower values like: 20.03.2017 12:30:15 throws no exception.

Maybe something localization related? Im using german/european culture-times.

Thanks for any help!

Hi,

I can see the bug, bu only in v3.3, not in v3.1. I believe you are trying the latest version v3.3.

This will be fixed in v3.4.

In the meantime, you can go in file :
Xceed.Wpf.toolkit/DateTimeUpDown/Implementation/DateTimeUpDown.cs,
and replace the content of the "Increment( int step )" method with :
```
_fireSelectionChangedEvent = false;

var currentValue = this.ConvertTextToValue( this.TextBox.Text );
if( currentValue.HasValue )
{
var newValue = this.UpdateDateTime( currentValue, step );
this.TextBox.Text = newValue.Value.ToString( this.GetFormatString( this.Format ), this.CultureInfo );
}
else
{
this.TextBox.Text = ( this.DefaultValue != null )
? this.DefaultValue.Value.ToString( this.GetFormatString( this.Format ), this.CultureInfo )
: this.ContextNow.ToString( this.GetFormatString( this.Format ), this.CultureInfo );
}

if( this.TextBox != null )
{
DateTimeInfo info = _selectedDateTimeInfo;
//this only occurs when the user manually type in a value for the Value Property
if( info == null )
info = ( this.CurrentDateTimePart != DateTimePart.Other ) ? this.GetDateTimeInfo( this.CurrentDateTimePart ) : _dateTimeInfoList[ 0 ];

//whenever the value changes we need to parse out the value into out DateTimeInfo segments so we can keep track of the individual pieces
this.ParseValueIntoDateTimeInfo( this.ConvertTextToValue( this.TextBox.Text ) );

//we loose our selection when the Value is set so we need to reselect it without firing the selection changed event
this.TextBox.Select( info.StartPosition, info.Length );
}
_fireSelectionChangedEvent = true;

this.SyncTextAndValueProperties( true, Text );
```

For the exception, try with this fix(or wait for v3.4). Also, make sure your DateTimePicker format is using Capital "H" for hours (24 hours instead of 12 hours) :
```
Format="Custom"
FormatString="dd.MM.yyyy HH:mm:ss"
```
