Prev button not working if Init with setValue for start and end dates #510

Open voidfire opened 3 years ago

If I load previously selected values from user (eg: from session or browser storage ) in dual month view prev button doesn't go back before the selected month.

Lets say we have August and I load a date range in September as I initialize the dateRangePicker I'll be presented with September and October, Prev button won't go back to current month thus not giving the chance to user to change the selection

My current work around consists of:

showShortcuts: true,
customShortcuts: [
                {
                    name: 'Clear Selection',
                    dates: function () {
                        localStorage.removeItem("checkInDate");
                        localStorage.removeItem("checkOutDate");
                        var start = moment(new Date()).toDate();
                        var end = moment(new Date()).subtract(1, 'weeks').toDate();
                        return [start, end];
                    }
                }           
            ],

Which will return the first DatePicker to current month and clean browser storage

But I wonder if there's a better way.
