Description

Currently datepicker shows the week number but there is no event for the click of this field. Also the ability to have the datepicker select the week upon clicking the week number would be nice. In the same way clicking the week heading could select the month.

Hi, could you provide a bit more info here? What do you mean by "selecting a week"? The datepicker selects dates, which are compromised of a month, a day, and year. Please let me know so we can consider this use case! Thanks!

Because we get so many tickets, we often need to return them to the initial reporter for more information. If that person does not reply within 14 days, the ticket will automatically be closed, and that has happened in this case. If you still are interested in pursuing this issue, feel free to add a comment with the requested information and we will be happy to reopen the ticket if it is still valid. Thanks!

Sorry for the delay here...

I have used web calendar components that allow this. This feature would allow the user to select all the days in a week or month with a single click. In past applications requirements have been such that a user can select multiple days without selecting each date while holding down the ctrl key.

Use case:

A calendaring application that lists events a user must attend. The user should have the ability to select an individual dates or a range of dates. The ui then displays all events the user has on those days. Users should have the ability to print a weeks worth of events.

X Sun Mon Tues Weds Thurs Fri Sat

X 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

X 8 9 10 11 12 13 14

...

The x's to the left of the week would select all days in that week. The x in the top left would select all days in the month.

If you would like I can share a link to a component library that has this functionally. This library is not free or open source so I did not know if I should share here. It may better illustrate the functionally I am proposing.

Thanks

That still doesn't tie into how this widget works, which is to operate on a single date. This is out of scope for the datepicker widget.
