Interactive date selections
"Following the stunning 'ChartMaker for LiveCode', Hugh Senior delivers once again with 'DatePicker for LiveCode'... A practical, comprehensive, robust yet easy-to-use and user-friendly solution to date manipulation which is not always a simple problem. Not a problem any more." ~ Dr. Yves Coppe, Belgium
DatePicker is a professional library solution for responsive date selections and validation in your own work. It offers your Users fully featured and customisable popup palettes that are non-blocking for uninterrupted work-flow, and uses callbacks for event-responsive interaction with their UI. It handles virtually any arbitrary date format, displays in the local language, supports memos, date limits, disabled days and dates, and can even generate webpage calendars. For applications that require accurate historical dates, both modern and early-date Julian calendar systems are supported.

Scriptable syntax
The download includes the DatePicker Utility, a point-and-click wizard to test options and generate the required scripts for you, along with fully annotated documentation and unlocked example Playground scripts.

Like CSS, you can apply the keyValue properties in any order. Easy access documentation includes tips, explanations and examples of each syntax command. From a simple single-date choice to arbitrary, date-limited, day restricted, multiple selection date selections, DatePicker can do it....
