DatePicker Widget Format

I have defined a xml layout with the DatePicker widget as follows:

     <DatePicker 
        android:id="@+id/SelectDate"
        android:layout_marginTop="10dp"  
        android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:gravity="center|center_horizontal|center_vertical">
    </DatePicker>

and it is being displayed in mm/dd/yyyy format,开发者_如何学Python as below:

but how can I display the DatePicker widget in (dd/mm/yyyy) format, as below?

The picker take the date format chosen by the user, which means you don't really have to format it, as probably the user enjoyes the most to see the format he's used to.

I've just tested the HelloDatePicker tutorial and in my phone, I have the date in (dd/mm/yyyy) format, so the picker shows the same format; in emulator, I've put the date in mm/dd/yyyy format, so the picker displays the same.

According to this answer there is no method to set the display format.

In android native datepicker will not allow you to change theme and sequence of picker of it at all.

You should try custom date picker component for that because no choice for that.

see this question How do you use custom Datepicker and Timepicker skins? for custom datepicker.You will get answer for custom picker component in that you can customize all the things with theme and sequence of format also.

If you are working with spanish language (dd/mm/yyyy is how you show the date in spanish), it's all about your local device configuration. DatePicker takes the language format.

Try changing phone settings and choose date format
