The Calendar control can display several views with different resolution, varying from Time to Century. The user can switch from one view to another by either clicking on the calendar title or by clicking on a cell in the current view. The user can navigate within the current view by clicking on the navigation buttons in the calendar header.

The appearance of the cells in the different views can be customized through several data templates - DefaultItemTemplate, TodayItemTemplate, PaddingItemTemplate, WeekendItemTemplate, HolidayItemTemplate, SelectionItemTemplate, FocusItemTemplate and HoverItemTemplate.

The general appearance of the calendar can be customized through Background, BorderBrush, BorderThickness, ContentBackground, ContentBorderBrush, ContentBorderThickness, HeaderBackground, HeaderBorderBrush, HeaderBorderThickness and Foreground.

The dates displayed in the various views are formatted through several strings - TimeViewFormat, MonthViewFormat, YearViewFormat, DecadeViewFormat and CenturyViewFormat.
