How can I select between 4 different DateTimePicker fields in powershell WPF if there is no Name property?

Hi, Can you be more precise please ? What do you mean by DateTimePicker fields ? What do you mean by PowerShell WPF ? You are not developing in with Visual Studio ? What "Name" property are you referring to ? Can you submit a sample project ?

Thank you.

Insert code did not work very well. Using the Name property I can map it as a variable and use a specific Item. DateTimePicker does not have that.

Hi, Can you use "x:Name" like we normally do in WPF/XAML ?

The "Name" property is valid for all FrameworkElement and DateTimePicker is a FrameworkElement.

Hi,

It works that way. Would be nice to update the documentation and examples.

Thanks, Ed
