Customise Calendar show old date

Posted on by Ivet__

Hello all, please help me with my APP..

I created a calendar in the gallery. I have a problem.. when I open the app it shows January 2020.. after clicking on the button with this data ..

Set(_FirstDayofWeek,
Date(
Year(Today()),
Month(Today()),
StartOfWeek.Monday))

I updated my calendar.. to the current month and year.. but the Start of the week.. starting from Thursday.. Friday.. Wednesday. .not on Mondays or Sundays.. same data I had in Property OnStart... but always start with year 2020...

The best solutions will be.. open app and have current date... but I will be happy with that button.. update date and StartWeek on Monday/Sunday

Do you have some ideas how to do it? 🙂

Sorry I cannot understand how is built the calendar in the gallery. I see in the screenshot an array with 7 items (from 0 to 6).
Is it also important to see what is in the default selected items of the gallery. Can you please show a screenshot of the gallery also all the parameters?

sorry I try better explain.. I have 3 galleries..
first gallery = day :
item= [0,1,2,3,4,5,6]
wrap=7
Title in that gallery show DAY =
Text(
DateAdd(
_FirstDayofWeek,
ThisItem.Value,
TimeUnit.Days
)+1,
"ddd"
)
second gallery = calendar_week:
items = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6]
wrap = 7
Title in that gallery show DATE =
Text(
DateAdd(
_FirstDayofWeek,
ThisItem.Value,
TimeUnit.Days
) +1,
DateTimeFormat.ShortDate
)
third gallery = oneday :
wrap = 1
item =
Filter('sharepointlist',
StartsWith(AREA, Label3_91.Text), (POSITION = Label3_90.Text),
(LINE = Label3_93.Text),
(WORKGROUP = WORKGROUP5__10.Selected.Value || WORKGROUP5__10.Selected.Value = Blank()),
(SHIFT = shiftradio_6.Selected.Value || shiftradio_6.Selected.Value = Blank()),
DateValue(Text(DATE))=DateAdd(_FirstDayofWeek, ThisItem.Value, TimeUnit.Days) +1)

this is everything..

Hi @Ivet__
wow! Now I understand what you mean.
If the main problem is to obtain the correct date, could it be a possible solution for you to add a datepicker (hidden or visible) where you can set all these properties (I use it for a lot of apps) and then use the value of the datepicker in the filters of the galleries?

Hi,

I just want to let you know.. I figured out.. OnStart in APP I changes my set up..

Set(_CurrentUser, User());Set(_CurrentDate, Today());
Set(_firstDayImView, DateAdd(_FirstDayofWeek, -(Weekday(Today(),StartOfWeek.Monday))))..

now my calendar starts with actual date and week.. also.. with Monday..
