14The calendar control allows the user to pick a date interactively. For this,
15it displays a window containing several parts: the control to pick the month
16and the year at the top (either or both of them may be disabled) and a month
17area below them which shows all the days in the month. The user can move the
18current selection using the keyboard and select the date (generating
19{\tt EVT\_CALENDAR} event) by pressing {\tt <Return>} or double clicking it.
20
21It has advanced possibilities for the customization of its display. All global
22settings (such as colours and fonts used) can, of course, be changed. But
23also, the display style for each day in the month can be set independently
24using \helpref{wxCalendarDateAttr}{wxcalendardateattr} class.
25
26An item without custom attributes is drawn with the default colours and
27font and without border, but setting custom attributes with
28\helpref{SetAttr}{wxcalendarctrlsetattr} allows to modify its appearance. Just
29create a custom attribute object and set it for the day you want to be
30displayed specially (note that the control will take ownership of the pointer,
31i.e. it will delete it itself). A day may be marked as being a holiday, even
32if it is not recognized as one by \helpref{wxDateTime}{tdateholidays} using
33\helpref{SetHoliday}{wxcalendardateattrsetholiday} method.
34
35As the attributes are specified for each day, they may change when the month
36is changed, so you will often want to update them in
37{\tt EVT\_CALENDAR\_MONTH} event handler.
