Strange rad date picker issue

[Andrew]

Good day, I am using Teleik.Web.UI version 2023.1.323.40

I had to add this javascript to the date picker to get the current day to be focused in the calendar- when it is first opened.

I am not sure why this helped, is there a more suitable fix?

                                    datePickerDynCtrl.ClientEvents.OnPopupOpening =
                                        @"function(sender,eventArgs){ " +
                                        "var popup = eventArgs.get_popupControl(); " +
                                        "var todaysDate = new Date(); " +
                                        "popup.selectDate([todaysDate.getFullYear(),'',''], true); }";

Also I am aware there is a  datePicker.Calendar.FocusedDate property - it did not seem to focus the current day

The Code sets the selectDate function of the RadDatePicker's popup control to select the current date by creating a new Date object representing today's date. The get_popupControl() function retrieves the popup control of the RadDatePicker, and selectDate is used to set the selected date in the calendar.

This approach is a suitable fix if you want the current date to be automatically focused when the date picker is opened.
