How to format TimeSpan in xaml
- by biju
I am trying to format a textblock which is bound to a TimeSpan property.It works if the property is of type DateTime but it fails if it is a TimeSpan .I can get it done using a converter.But i am trying to find out if there is any alternatives.
Sample Code
public TimeSpan MyTime { get; set; }
public Window2()
{
InitializeComponent();
MyTime = DateTime.Now.TimeOfDay;
DataContext = this;
}
Xaml
<TextBlock Text="{Binding MyTime,StringFormat=HH:mm}"/>
I am expecting the textblock to show only hours and mintes.But it is showing like
19:10:46.8048860
