[SOLVED] Enhanced MonthCalendar

Answered Closed

Hi,

Nice enhancement, but….

When you press either of the two arrows, two (2) years are not showing or missing. It must also be true in DateTimePicker.

By the way, DateTimePicker when drop into a form has a default size of (0, 22), the same as in TextBox here.

Thanks.

Nice catch, Cris, thanks !

It´s logged as WJ-7738 and fixed in the latest build (1.2.83).

Best regards

Hi Frank, Luca,

You nailed it using 1.2.85.

I believe so. The Starbucks analogy is the key and now, I only need one trip to grab that two items.

Nice weekend to both of you.

Thanks.

Hi Cris,

nice story about Starbucks, seems you have convinced Luca with that 🙂

The new build (1.2.85) includes the additions/refinements that Luca listed in his previous post.

Can you please retest ?

Thanks
Frank

Frank said the same a couple of days ago – except the Starbucks part. I told him to wait for the first issue and now we have it.

The issue was whether to add two buttons: ok, cancel. Which would have required localization and still a second or third click to close.

This is how it is now (in the next update):

  • F2 or Alt-Down open the mont-year selector, in addition to the click.
  • Keyboard is supported: Esc, Enter, Left/Right change the month, Up/Down change the year and scrolls if out of range.
  • Click on month and year (or year and month) close automatically.
  • There is a new close icon next to the navigation arrows.

Best,

Luca

Hi Frank,

Confirmed fixed using 1.2.84 and it looks better now as month and year are highlighted. Almost perfect! Why did I say that?

I have master and he wants Ancho Chipotle Chicken and Chile Mocha Frappuccino from Starbucks. How would I do that?

Option 1:

  • go to Starbucks -> buy Ancho Chipotle Chicken -> go back to office and give it to my master.
  • go back to Starbucks -> buy Chile Mocha Frappuccino -> go back to office and give it to my master.

Option 2:

  • go to Starbucks -> buy Ancho Chipotle Chicken and Chile Mocha Frappuccino at the same time -> go back to office and give them both to my master at the same time.

If I go for Option 1, my master will be mad at me so, I would definitely go for Option 2 and wouldn’t it be nice if the MonthCalendar works like that?. If a user wants to change the month and year, he/she should be able to do it in one go. Currently, when a user clicks a month, the month/year selector closes and needs to be reopened to change the year. Not so user-friendly. Just my 2 cents.

Thanks.
