Calendar Component: Date not showing if date is before [mindate]

[sdmakwana]

Describe the bug

In my angular project, p-calendar does not show date if the date assigned to it is before the mindate value. I have migrated my project from angular 15 to angular 18. This issue does not occur in 17.0.0 of primeng but does occur in the latest version but I must use the latest version because of angular 18 compatibility.

Environment

"@angular/cdk": "^18.1.0", "@angular/common": "^18.1.0", "angular/compiler": "^18.1.0", "@angular/core": "^18.1.0", "@angular/forms": "^18.1.0", "primeng": "17.18.9",

I also have this issue with the calendar

+1 , We have the same issue. Here is the case. We have some form that supports add/edit operation. On this form, we have a calendar with minDate = new Date(). During creation, we set the date through the calendar to current date + 1 day and create some entity. We come to this form in 2 days and try to edit the entity. And we don't see the date in the input as it is in the past.

Is it the new changeDetection change in angular or is the issue from package side? Because I remember seeing this issue in previous versions.
Also, not using onPush BTW.

Check the format of your date, ensure that the date format remain the same when changed. Thanks

I sometimes use fromatDate method from angular common.

Switched to matDatePicker.

On latest version of primeng you can try to add attribute to p-calendar : [keepInvalid]="true"
