Auto select current date in the calendar

Hi

Is it possible when the calendar pops up for it to select the current date eventhough the input field is blank?

Is not, perhaps a current date button in the calendar as a suggestion for a future release??

Hey @kirank,

Most probably your DatePicker is bound to a property, i.e. @bind-Value="someObject.someDate" - you can set DateTime.Now to this property. There is also a footer where you can place anything including button to set the current date:

Thank you @enchev

I did know about the 1st suggestion but in some situations, the date needs to be blank so the user makes a conscious decision. The 2nd suggestion you made is perfect for what I need. Just didn't realise the footer.

It would be good if in the future if this was a property on the date control, however, I can work with a button in the footer.
