application.showCalendar()

Classic Servoy
1

Can I pass a date as parameter to application.showCalendar() method so that the date is by default selected in the calendar?

2

I need this too!

Possible?

TIA
Stef

THAT would be nice indeed!

Something like (in our case):

var thecaldate = new Date(project_year, project_month-1, 1)
var theetd = application.showCalendar(thecaldate)

C’mon JC & JB! You can do it!

5

Yes, I would love this too.

6

Did this ever get done? I so need it…

7

You can create a feature request for this here: Servoy - Error

8

I would love this too.

i added some optional parameters:

showCalendar([selecteddate], [dateformat])

GREAT! Though is there any chance you can do it to 3.5.x as well? If i say PLEASE? :)

11

upgrading to 4.1 is sooooo much better!! :)

12

tell that to my client! :D i can’t even get them on 3.5.9 right now, but i would totally go for 3.6 if it had this feature! any possibility? :)

13

i think we will count a bit different then ellen :)
3.5.9 + 1 = 3.5.10 :)

14

Ooops. Friday. No Coffee. Excuses excuses… So is that a yes?

15

Any chance this feature is coming in 3.5.10 and when is that release coming? Just wondering if I should do a workaround and not count on it? No pressure.

16

3.5.x is really already on the end of the road of enhancements, we currently do only bug fixes.
we already have 4.1 out and 4.2 coming soon.

If you really want a feature backported you should contact sales.

My client wants to use my solution in a web client running on an iPad. He is finding that the calendar fields are hard to use because it’s difficult to tap right on the little ‘17’ icon to bring up the date picker. I tried expanding the calendar field but the ‘17’ icon doesn’t expand with it. I created a button that calls application.showCalendar and it works nicely in the Java client but in the web client nothing happens.

Does application.showCalendar only work in the java client? How can I bring up a date picker in the web client?

Thanks for your help.

the datepicker is NOT suitable for in the web on mobile phones! (maybe it is for the iPad, did not test is yet)
We have created or own style.

sometimes three combobox’s with: day, month, year
