TimePicker default format when empty

[Robert]

In the TimePicker control can you have it default to "hh:mm:ss" or "  :  :  "?

If I turn on, set dateInput to "true", it default to "hours:minutes:seconds".  Can this be changed?

Hi, Robert,

You can modify the displayed dateInput value through the messages configuration:

let timePicker = $("#timepicker").kendoTimePicker({
    format: "HH:mm:ss",
  	dateInput: true
}).getKendoTimePicker();
  
  // Get a reference to the underlying dateInput widget and update its options.
  timePicker._dateInput.setOptions({
    messages: {
      hour: "hh",
      minute: "mm",
      second: "ss"
    }
  });

You can set the values to be whatever you want.
