Hello, I use DateTime input component in a dock view. At first time I open dock view the props.value = null and picking date is work as expected. After closing and re-opening dock view the DateTime input component has its last selected value but if i want to select a new daye and time again, that doesn’t work. even I can’t change the time and min entries. For clearance I take a video. At first time it works and opening dock again it doen’t. https:/uploads/iatesting/original/2X/d/dbd220fb5bd850c8f348058e5708bbb50b2c3111.mp4 ---

I also try it on 8.0.7 and 8.0.6. I wonder why none from IA confirm it and make a ticket for it. ---

Thanks for the respose. Did you do any special configuration? I recently update from 8.0.9 to 8.0.10 to solve other issue for auto range in time series chart, but I got the same error. Dates revert to the state saved in the designer. ---

No nothing just in designer leave the date picker empty and let user change it.
