I have a date picker on a popup in perspective that when it’s clicked the calendar that you select from appears behind the popup. ---

@christopher.green Im not able to reproduce this on the latest build. Are you using a current build? I know there was a ticket about this that was fixed a while back. If you are could you provide an export of the views or more details about the configuration to attempt to replicate? Thanks, Jonathan C ---

A ticket has been created, it is being evaluated for priority at the moment. When there is an update we will update this post. Thanks, Jonathan C ---

Little goofy behavior that I haven’t figured out yet. If I put a date time input object on a popup with a specific format property the calendar will show up behind the popup that the object is on. If I change the format it will show up on the popup. This format works fine on a popup ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/2X/9/997f5fc48a22b9e050eea0e3b9f8c480de388696.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/2X/0/0c4e78464332371da4a45b30de448bf814bf0d39.png) If I change the format to “ll” and click on the object the blue box shows up like it is selected but the calendar isn’t shown. I dragged the popup over and saw the calendar behind it. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/2X/2/2732a931da586448ce86681f779385b22db1a1ee.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/2X/b/bb6ad4d16c5f77d7883ce4e5d23ce9cc2c5d11a0.png) If you navigate to this view rather than open it as a popup it works fine with both format types. ---

@apgilber I moved your post here as it’s already a known issue. ---

Based off of comments on the internal ticket, we’re not planing on assigning this to a developer for quite some time. I would not expect this to be repaired within the next couple of months. ---

What’s the best workaround? Just change the formatting? ---

Either the formatting change or avoiding use of DateTime Inputs in Popups. Replacing a DateTime Input with a DateTime Picker would work, but replacing a component entirely would result in you needing to repair bindings, whereas changing the formatting _should_ be a fairly unobtrusive change. ---

This also happens if you change the locale of the component. So as we are operating outside of USA it would be nice to get this fixed soon.
