How to set Format for DateTimePicker in WPF - c#

In my application I'm using the DateTimePicker control from the Xceed Wpf toolkit.
I would like to set the format so that only the hours and minutes can be edited, I want to remove the calendar. since I'm using DateTimePicker to establish how long a process takes. Like this 3d print, it took 20h 40m and save it in my database.
enter image description here only this part

To set the format of the Xceed DateTimePicker control to only show hours and minutes, you can set the Format property to "HH:mm". This will display the time in hours and minutes, and only the time portion can be edited.
Example:
<xctk:DateTimePicker Format="HH:mm" />
This will format the control to only show and allow editing of the hour and minute values.

DateTime to "Time" in a DataGridView

Good morning!
I have a Form which has a DataGridView with a few time informations that I have to show it on a label.
But as I can see, my label (and DataGrid) have Date and Time included (and I only need the time on my DataGrid and label).
I know visual studio c# doesn't has a style that converts DateTime only to "Time", but I don't know how to format these datas only as Time to show it on my label.
What should I do to:
Format this DateTime only to show Time (on my DataGrid) and then appears only as Time on my label as well (this label retrieves the DataGrid information).
Set DefaultCellStyle
dataGridView1.Columns["Column with time"].DefaultCellStyle.Format = "HH:mm:ss";

Change value of DateTimePicker

I'm having problem to change the displayed value of my DateTimePicker object in C# Winforms
I'm trying to change the date in the DateTimePicker according to the value, but the display won't change.
dtpDisplayTo.Value = DateTime.Today;
I know this is dated, but I just had the same problem and found a solution with a bit of research. You have to set the Checked property of the DateTimePicker to True before changing the date, otherwise the control will consider the change as null and not show the new date. Really strange stuff.
DateTimePicker displays today's date instead of displaying its actual Value

Coded ui Test Unable to find a DateTime picker in an Hierarchy

Is there a work around for this?

DateTimePicker - Which subfield has focus?

I have a class that derives from DateTimePicker. The picker control has format set to DateTimePickerFormat.Custom and custom format string set to yyyy.MM.dd HH:mm in order to display dates in the format 2013.01.25 21:45. Here, 2013 is the year subfield that gets highlited when the users clicks on it with the mouse cursor or tabs to it using the TAB key. Once highlited, the user can use UP/DOWN keys to increment / decrement the year, or manually enter a new year value. The same holds true for the month, day, hour and minute subfields.
For my application, certain dates or time values are forbidden. For instance, consider the following rule:
An appointment can only be scheduled at a time rounded to the nearest 10 minutes. For instance, you can schedule one at either 21:10 or 21:20, not at 21:13.
For this, I need to know which subfield currently has focus. The problem is I don't know how to determine this. If I know which subfield has focus, I could devise the following set of rules in code.
If the minute subfield is selected, and the user presses the UP key, increment the time by 10 minutes.
If the minute subfield is selected, and the user presses the DOWN key, decrement the time by 10 minutes.
If the minute subfield has lost focus, round the minutes up or down to the nearest 10 minutes.
The only problem that remains.. HOW DO I FIND WHICH SUBFIELD CURRENTLY HAS FOCUS?
NOTE: Yes I can make validation checks in OnLeave event but the my application requires that invalid datetime values be skipped altogether. Also, I have checked out the solution given here. But I am inclined to find the active subfield as an exercise as well. Finally, if its of any use, I'm using C# 4.0 on Windows 7 x86.

Configuring the Date Popup on the WPF DatePicker Control

I have a date picker control that I use for a data collection application. It is using MvvM data binding. When going through a list of dates (see fig1) it will populate the date picker correctly. Whenever I hit new, the date pickers are nulled out. When I pull up the popup, it selects the month and year from the previous date that was set to. (fig 2) Is there anyway to default the pop up show the current month in the current year?
Note : I would like to keep the selected date to null on a new entry to force some validation.

The following image is to show what happens when I set the DisplayDateStart.
(original answer was horribly wrong, sorry about that)
Okay, lets try this again.
Have you tried setting the fallback to today's date?
SelectedDate="{Binding TehDate, FallbackValue={x:Static sys:DateTime.Now}}"
