Starting day of the week (Sunday to Monday)

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hello everyone!

 

I am making a custom gallery calendar, and I have a label with the following formula: Calendar.WeekdaysShort()

 

By default, the starting day of the week is Sunday, but I would like it to be Monday

 

Picture context: "vas" means "sun", "hét" means "mon" etc...

I would like it to be to start from Monday.

    Hi @Anonymous,

    Do you want to change the first day as Monday using the Calendar.WeekdaysShort()?

     

    If you want to achieve this using the Calendar.WeekdaysShort(), I am afraid there is no OOTB in Power Apps. You could directly replace it with [ "Mon", "Tue", "Wed", "Thu", "Fri", "Sat", "Sun" ].

     

    Then I will suggest you use the Calendar template within Power Apps, and you should modify something as below:

    There is a small change required to the calculation of the first day in view variable
    
    Set(_dateSelected, Today()); 
    Set(_firstDayOfMonth, DateAdd(Today(), 1 - Day(Today()), Days)); 
    Set(_firstDayInView, DateAdd(_firstDayOfMonth, -(Weekday(_firstDayOfMonth) - 2 ), Days)); 
    Set(_lastDayOfMonth, DateAdd(DateAdd(_firstDayOfMonth, 1, Months), -1, Days))

    Great, but it looks missing the last Sunday on the last row. Anyway to fix it?

    @usaman45 You need to slightly change the visible attribute of the Title inside the MonthDayGallery

    !(DateAdd(_firstDayInView,ThisItem.Value,Days) - Weekday(DateAdd(_firstDayInView,ThisItem.Value,Days),StartOfWeek.Monday) + 1 > _lastDayOfMonth)

    You need to add StartOfWeek.Monday inside the Weekday function. That way the number starts at 1 on a Monday and not on a Sunday.
