An example

Hi Erwan,

This makes sense indeed since we have all the information in the dropdowns. Maybe could be an option though, to let the user type in (even if I guess most of the time it's not used). Then I would suggest to not show the field by default.

Hi Jacques,

if you want to choose the date and have drop-downs for the time, you can use this combination :
<date-time type="date" input-method="time-dropdown"/>

Erwan,

Sure, I know that, it's in the examples: <<Field4: advanced date time selection>>
I was just saying that maybe some persons will like to be able to enter a time by hand. Hence the idea to have an attribute for that...

Jacques,

we are not speaking of the same thing. The advanced date/time is here to select date and time, but when you use type="time", it's only to select a time, so the date box is not needed

Ha!

I see, sorry for the confusion. I must say I never used <date-time type="time" input-method="time-dropdown"/> and from what you say it seems that I'm not alone. Because I can see any reasons to show an useless field Or maybe something has changed behind? Anyway, I totally agree with you then!

Thanks for the clarification Erwan

This issue seems to be resolved now and can be closed. I edited the editTrainingCalendar form in file /applications/humanres/widget/forms/PersonTrainingForms.xml and tried <date-time type="time" input-method="time-dropdown" /> for From Date, Attaching the screenshot.

Thanks Harsh for your help in verification, Thanks Erwan for reporting this issue.
