I placed a maskededit and used the Short Time mask. I've tried to modify segments but can't get the result I need. When the user enters the time eg. 08:02 AM, the displayed time changes to _8:_2 AM. I tried to modify the segments but haven't been able to figure out how to keep the leading zero.

Thank you for your help.

Hi,

There isn't a clean way to do that. There are two workarounds:

1. Change the hour and minute segment from Number segment to Mask segment. For example, the hour segment looks like this:

Code: HTML/ASPX 
<eo:MaskedEditSegment MaxValue="12" MinValue="1" SegmentType="Number" />


You can change that to:

Code: HTML/ASPX 
<eo:MaskedEditSegment Mask="99" SegmentType="Mask" />


This will keep the 0 digits however it won't enforce the min/max value range as a Number segment would.

2. Using two separate MaskedEdit controls. The first MaskedEdit control would have three segments: hour, ":" and minute. The second MaskedEdit control would have a single "AM|PM" choice segment. You can then set the first MaskedEdit control's PromptChar to "0". This will display "0" for all "empty" positions. It is necessary to use a separate MaskedEdit control for the "AM|PM" choice because otherwise it would also display "00" there.

Hope this helps. Please feel free to let us know if you have any more questions.

Thanks!

I replaced the number segment with a masked segment and that worked perfectly. I get the results I'm looking for. Thank you for the quick reply and suggestion.
