RadDateTimePicker: How can I define a custom format?

In your documentation you describe how to define custom format in ShortDatePattern and ShortTimePattern. But how can I use a format like CultureInfo.DateTimeFormat.SortableDateTimePattern or CultureInfo.DateTimeFormat.MonthDayPattern? It does not work at me.
The same problem I have, if I want to use long date and short time or short date and long time.

Thanks

RadDateTimePicker has its own parsing mechanism, that's why it does not support SortableDateTimePattern  and MonthDayPattern datetime formats. ShortDatePattern is used to format the date after it is parsed.

I have find out the problem myself:
If you change the format after a value has been set, the format of the DateTime value doesn't change. In this case you must first set the value to e.g. null and set the value again. Then the value is shown in the correct format.
