Hi,

Can someone let me know if the datepicker issue was resolved in any of the releases ? We're on version 8.1.35 and still seeing this issue. I have seen the below 2 threads but have not seen any resolution related to this.

Ref - [[IGN-6087] Date picker issue (selected date - 1) - Ignition - Inductive Automation Forum](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/ign-6087-date-picker-issue-selected-date-1/58345)

Unfortunately it looks like this is still a known issue as of at least June of last year.

After a quick test this is an issue in 8.1.45 as well.

EDIT: I was mistaken. The server I was using is 8.1.44. I ended up just creating a whole new view and putting new objects on that one, and the problem didn’t happen. For what it’s worth, the view in which I had the problem uses a coordinate type as the root container while the view I made fresh where it does work uses a flex container as root. I have no idea if that makes a difference or it’s just a coincidence, but it’s at the very least what’s different.

I’m seeing this issue in 8.1.44 additionally. I find it really hard to believe there isn’t some kind of fix or at least a culprit for this. This object is base functionality and has got to be used in hundreds of not thousands of projects all over the world. I have to believe someone would have raised a much bigger stink about it by now if it’s just sitting there broken and basically unusable.
