How to select a year

[ivangodfather]

Hi, i want to use this calendar also for birthdays, theres a way to select a specific year without having to pass thoroug all the months?

I'm not sure what you need.
If you just want to jump to a date in future change the date before launching it

self.datePicker.date = self.curDate;

there is no button or swipe or something if the calendar is open to switch year directly.

Yeah, thats what i'm talking about, if i need to use it for select a birthday, so choosing past years like 1980 takes so long

Currently I'm not planing such a feature.
It's more a graphical challenge then a coding one.

Need to think about this

In V1.2.0 you'll find the solution to select the year faster.

Hello,
First, thank you a lot for this component, we use it @blablacar as our main date picker, and it's awesome. But we customized it a little bit (colors + customs images), and it doesn't fit well with the new year selection method.
Could it be optional ?

Hi @diwann,
Optional... Shouldn't be a big problem... Would it be enough to just hide the year selection buttons? Or is there any other recent change that doesn't fit?

I wasn't aware that @blablacar is using it. Nice. Could you add it here, as Apps that use this control.

Thanks, just hiding the year selection buttons would be really enough.
we just changed the asset to be more consistent with the overall design.

FYI, here is what we have right now:

and here is what we see with the year selection button:

Concerning cocoacontrols, I had already tried but I can't add it to the users page because our app is not available on the usa and because cocoacontrols require an itunes url like : https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/*
so this : https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/id341329033 does not work ...

I've added the switch in the latest commit, but not fully tested.
This week I'm a bit short in time, so I don't know if I'm able to provide a new pod

[ErwannRobin]

don't worry, no hurry
gonna test it tomorrow.
