  Hello,
  
  There is no direct way to change the width of the drop-down calendar, but you can access it in the DropDown event of InputDatePicker as follows:

  private async void InputDatePicker1_DropDown(object sender, EventArgs e)
  {
      await Task.Delay(5);
      var calendar = Application.OpenForms[1].Controls[0];
      calendar.Width += 100;
  }

  
  
  Please refer to the attached sample. (see InputPanel48_DateTimePicker_Cal.zip)
  
  We understand your concern that you want to find a workaround for the “Calendar header not displayed properly in ‘PT-pt’ locale” issue you have reported before. Apologies for the inconvenience, but we have gone through all of the possible ways to find a workaround but could not find one. Increasing the width of the calendar does not change the size of the internal elements of the calendar, as they are static.
  
  We have already escalated your concern to the developers and have asked them for a viable workaround. We’ll let you know once we get updates from the developers.
  
  Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
  
  Regards,
  
  Uttkarsh.

  Uttkarsh, a workaround would save me a lot of problems.

  We have to launch a new version of our software and its stuck because of this problem.

  Hello,
  
  The only workaround we could think of is to set StandardFormat to LongDate, but the Today date text at the bottom overflows while displaying LongDate in the “PT-pt” locale.

  inputDatePicker1.StandardFormat = C1.Win.C1InputPanel.InputDateFormat.LongDate;
  

  Refer to the attached sample. (see InputPanel48_DateTimePicker_Mod.zip)
  
  Please see if this helps until we get updates from the developers.
  
  Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in this matter.

  Uttkarsh.

  But then the users would see the date value in the field as a long date right?

  That cant be, because they have to change it often, even manually. And there´s a lot of date fields in our application.

  I will be waiting for some updates from the developers. We really need this.

  Thanks
