WPF- TimePicker is not updating

I'm using Time Picker from wpfToolkit.extended in WPF application.

When I select a time in the dropdrownlist everything works the way it should. This is the namespace of the toolkit.

xmlns:xctk="http://schemas.xceed.com/wpf/xaml/toolkit"

This is the xaml for the timepicker

<Controls:MetroWindow 
    x:Class="TimeSheet.DayView"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:e="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003"

I've seen solution for this here

but when I write C# code-

public partial class DayView : MetroWindow, INotifyPropertyChanged
{
    private DateTime currentDateForWindow;

    public List<Harvest_Project> projectList{get;set;}

    public List<Harvest_Client> clientList {get; set;}

    public Harvest_Project selectedProjectid {get; set;}

    public Harvest_Client selectedClientid {get; set;}

    public string ElementName { get; set; }

    public DateTime StartValue { get; set; }

    public DateTime EndValue { get; set; }

    public DayView(DateTime s)

            dayDateLabel.Content = s.DayOfWeek + ", " + s.Day;
            monthLabel.Content = s.ToString("MMMM");

            if(Globals._globalController.win32Manager.isTimerRunning)

        }
    }


    #region INotifyPropertyChanged Members
    public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
    #endregion

}

It shows error as "StartPicker and EndPicker does not exist in current context".

Suggest the ways to solve this error.

Where have you written the two methods in? They should be written in the code behind file of the corresponding XAML file. – Anand Murali
Yes. These methods are written in code behind of corresponding xaml file. – user2622971
Can you show some more code of your xaml.cs – Vishal
I bound these to simple DateTime objects in my xaml.cs – user2622971
@user2622971 is your question answered? if yes, could you please accept the answer? – Roland Bär

Xaml-

    <Grid>
            <xctk:TimePicker Name="StartPicker" TextBoxBase.TextChanged="StartPicker_TextChanged" Value="{Binding StartTimeBinding, ElementName=MainWin, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}" Format="Custom" FormatString="hh:mm tt" Background="Yellow" Padding="0" Margin="0" BorderThickness="0" Width="100" Height="50" EndTime="11:59:0"/>

            <xctk:TimePicker Name="EndPicker" TextBoxBase.TextChanged="EndPicker_TextChanged" Value="{Binding StopTimeBinding, ElementName=MainWin1, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}" Format="Custom" FormatString="hh:mm tt" Background="Yellow" Padding="0" Margin="0" BorderThickness="0" Width="60" Height="50" EndTime="11:59:0"/>          

    </Grid>

Code-Behind your Xaml in Xaml.cs

private void EndPicker_TextChanged(object sender, TextChangedEventArgs e)
        {
            StartPicker.Focus(); // shows error at TimePicker Name(i.e StartPicker)
        }

        private void StartPicker_TextChanged(object sender, TextChangedEventArgs e)
        {
            EndPicker.Focus();  // shows error at EndPicker
        }

Try it this way:

private void StartPicker_TextChanged(object sender, TextChangedEventArgs e)
{
    TimePicker tp = sender as TimePicker;
    if(tp != null)
    {
        tp.Focus();
    }
}

private void EndPicker_TextChanged(object sender, TextChangedEventArgs e)
{
    TimePicker tp = sender as TimePicker;
    if(tp != null)
    {
        tp.Focus();
    }
}

Of course you can have only one function and point from both timepickers to this function:

private void TimePicker_TextChanged(object sender, TextChangedEventArgs e)
{
    TimePicker tp = sender as TimePicker;
    if(tp != null)
    {
        tp.Focus();
    }
}

and then in the xaml:

<xctk:TimePicker Name="StartPicker" TextBoxBase.TextChanged="TimePicker_TextChanged" Value="{Binding StartValue, ElementName=MainWin, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}" Format="Custom" FormatString="hh:mm tt" Background="Yellow" Padding="0" Margin="0" BorderThickness="0" Width="100" EndTime="11:59:0"/>
<xctk:TimePicker Name="EndPicker" TextBoxBase.TextChanged="TimePicker_TextChanged" Value="{Binding EndValue, ElementName=MainWin, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}" Format="Custom" FormatString="hh:mm tt" Background="Yellow" Padding="0" Margin="0" BorderThickness="0" Width="60" EndTime="11:59:0"/>
