Initial dateTime is not selected properly

[Ranko97]

When I have lastDate provided (e.g. user should have 18 years), initialDateTime would be set to DateTime.now(), which causes errors. Current workaround is to provide initialDate in correct range, but this means date field would be preselected.

This issue can be solved by changing the default initial date value from DateTime.now() to lastDate.

So, this would be the correct code: final DateTime initialDateTime = selectedDate ?? lastDate; , on line 86, function _selectDate, in file field.dart.

From my limited testing, this would not cause any additional issues.

If there is another way to solve this issue, please let me know.

Hello @Ranko97,

What do you think of the following behaviour:

If the current date (datetime.now) is included in the firstDate - lastDate range, it is used as default. Otherwise, we use the lastDate.

• I would also add a default date argument to specify a custom value !

Good for you?

Hello @GaspardMerten ,

Yes, I think that should solve this issue.

This is now a solved issue in the latest version (2.1.2)

The new argument is called initialDate.

Thank you for reporting the issue.
