Prevent DateTimePicker from autoclose

[Dmytro]

I have a kendo component kendo-datetimepicker (angular project)

When I open the calendar, start typing the date (day, month, year) and time (hours, minutes) in the input, right at the end when I select minutes - the calendar closes automatically.

The issue could be checked here: https://www.telerik.com/kendo-angular-ui/components/dateinputs/datetimepicker/date-time-limits/

Any way to prevent the calendar from closing when I type the date manually?

And close, only when I click on the cancel or set button or somewhere outside?

Here is a video with the issue: https://vimeo.com/662234988

Hi Dmytro,

Thank you for the provided details.

The described behavior is expected and by design from our UX team. The desired requirement can be achieved by preventing the default behavior of the close event and utilizing the toggle method of the DateTimePicker component, as demonstrated in the following example:

I hope this helps.
