The text filler before selecting the date says, 12/31/2001. Can I change it to say, DD/MM/YYYY? I am not sure where to change that under properties.
Sure! Try this in the 'Default Date' property: Text(Now(), "dd/mm/yyyy")
Also this is just changing the formatting the date and the date will save to SP in the "mm/dd/yyyy" form more than likely. I have not tested this but just guessing based on experience.
I think you may have misunderstood my question. I want to change the filler text. Like combo boxes say, "Find items." I want to have the filler text, not default value, say, "DD/MM/YYYY", as the filler for the date picker. I do not want an actual date or default value until a date is selected. Is there a way to do that?
Use the inputTextPlaceholder Property
If(IsBlank(Self.SelectedDate), Text(Now(), "dd/mm/yyyy"))
you can choose to add a fail clause to this if statement if you want to as well. For example:
If(IsBlank(Self.SelectedDate), Text(Now(), "dd/mm/yyyy"), Text(ThisItem.selectedDate, "dd/mm/yyyy"))
Thank you! I wasn't sure what property to use! This helped a lot.
