Hello to all,
is it possible to allow writing only numbers and a dot as validation in a date picker?
For example: 22.05.2024?
I dont want characters in the input field of a date picker
No, I don't think so it is possible. @Marczii007
Hi @Marczii007 ,
You can set the Format of the Date Picker to
"dd.mm.yyyy"
if that is what you mean.

Sadly not. I dont want to type characters in the input of the datepicker. The datepicker should handle exact like a normal input text field, where u cant type characters if u set the property format to
I am a little unclear what you are trying to do here - if you want to enter numbers (for instance 06052024) into a Text Input, the Date conversion would be
Date( Value( Right( YourInput.Text, 4 ) ), Value( Mid( YourInput.Text, 3, 2 ) ), Value( Left( YourInput.Text, 2 ) ) )
but a Date Picker needs a recognised format - I have tested 06052024 on a Date Picker and it does not seem to want to accept it manually, even with the Format at "ddmmyyyy"
I would like the date picker input field to only accept numbers + ".". No use of the calendar icon on the right side. Just write in a specific date manually
First, I need to set isEditable to true so that I can write in the input field of DP. But the behavior of the inputfield doesn't seem to be like a normal textfield
@Marczii007 ,
Just use a Text Input instead with the Update property I posted. This will also require some Validation.
