DatePicker initialy shows today's date wihtout setting a value

[Marco]

I just updated my application to use version 2019.3.1023. While testing I noticed that all DatePicker's are displayed whit today's date by default without setting a value. Is this by design?

 

Kind Regards,

It's only applicable to templates which are bound to a view model.

Hi Marco,

Thank you for reporting this.

I've tried to reproduce the problem in this dojo but I was not able to at first glance.

Could you please give more details about how to reproduce it? Do you initialize the date at some point?

Hi Denitsa,

Your example works fine. I'm using a custom template for the editor of the scheduler control. I'm binding the DatePicker to the value of event.myDate on the view model via the name attribute:

<tr>
     <td style="text-align:right;"><label>My Date</label></td>
     <td><input name="event.myDate" data-role="datepicker" id="editEventATermeDatum" /></td>
</tr>

 

Kind Regards,

Marco

Hi Marco,

Scheduler control is using today's date as default date, if no current date is configured. 

If you have observed different behaviour in previos Kendo UI version, could tell us which one?

Would you send us a runnable project where the behavior is replicated? This will enable us to better examine the issue and look for its cause.

Hi Denitsa,

I believe that version kendoui.for.jquery.2019.2.514.commercial didn't had this side effect. I already fixed this is issue by resetting the DatePicker to null.

 

Thread can be closed.
