Topic: Vertically center date and time pickers

robsilva pro asked 6 years ago


I have a longer form that uses the date and timepicker.  When activated the widget appears all the way up and not in the center of the screen.  How can I set 'body' as its parent container? Thanks.

Can anyone shed some light on this please?

Thanks Damian:   Here’s the screenshot: https://screencast.com/t/pohOtOiWZtq Note that the date and time pickers are in a modal: <ng-template #modalEditPoll> <div mdbModal #content=”mdb-modal” style=”overflow: auto;” class=”modal” tabindex=”-1″ role=”dialog” aria-labelledby=”exampleModalLabel” aria-hidden=”true”> <div class=”modal-dialog modal-lg” role=”document”> <div class=”modal-content”> <div class=”modal-header”> <h4 class=”modal-title” id=”exampleModalLabel”>Poll Properties</h4> <button type=”button” class=”close” data-dismiss=”modal” aria-label=”Close” (click)=”content.hide()”> <span aria-hidden=”true”>×</span> </button> </div> <div class=”modal-body mx-4 my-3″ *ngIf=”pollUI”> <form *ngIf=”active” [formGroup]=”aForm” (ngSubmit)=”onVerify(aForm.value)”> <formMsg [form]=”aForm”></formMsg> <!– <div class=”md-form”> <input mdbActive type=”text” id=”l_pollId” readonly=”readonly” [formControl]=”aForm.controls[‘pollId’]” class=”form-control”> <label for=”l_pollId” class=””>Poll Id</label> </div> <controlMsg [form]=”aForm” [field]=”‘pollId'”></controlMsg> –> <div class=”md-form”> <input mdbActive type=”text” id=”l_pollTitle” [formControl]=”aForm.controls[‘pollTitle’]”> <label for=”l_pollTitle” class=””>Title <span class=”text-danger”>*</span></label> </div> <controlMsg [form]=”aForm” [field]=”‘pollTitle'”></controlMsg> <div class=”row mt-2″> <div class=”col-3″> <label for=”l_openDate”>Poll opens</label> <mdb-date-picker id=”l_openDate” [placeholder]=”‘MM-DD-YYYY'” [formControl]=”aForm.controls[‘openDate’]”> </mdb-date-picker> <controlMsg [form]=”aForm” [field]=”‘openDate'”></controlMsg> </div> <div class=”col-3″ style=”padding-top: 30px”> <mdb-time-picker [buttonlabel]=”‘Done'” [twelvehour]=”false” [darktheme]=”false” [placeholder]=”‘HH:MM'” [label]=”‘at'” [formControl]=”aForm.controls[‘_openDate’]”> </mdb-time-picker> </div> <div class=”col-3″> <label for=”l_closeDate”>Poll closes</label> <mdb-date-picker id=”l_closeDate” [placeholder]=”‘MM-DD-YYYY'” [formControl]=”aForm.controls[‘closeDate’]”> </mdb-date-picker> <controlMsg [form]=”aForm” [field]=”‘closeDate'”></controlMsg> </div> <div class=”col-3″ style=”padding-top: 30px”> <mdb-time-picker [buttonlabel]=”‘Done'” [twelvehour]=”false” [darktheme]=”false” [placeholder]=”‘HH:MM'” [label]=”‘at'” [formControl]=”aForm.controls[‘_closeDate’]”> </mdb-time-picker> </div> </div> <div class=”md-form”> <input mdbActive type=”text” id=”l_topgifUrl” [formControl]=”aForm.controls[‘topgifUrl’]”> <label for=”l_topgifUrl” class=””>Banner URL (URL of a .gif or a .jpg file)</label> <small>To be used instead of the standard “Poll/Survey Manager” banner when displaying the poll</small> </div> <controlMsg [form]=”aForm” [field]=”‘topgifUrl'”></controlMsg> <div class=”md-form”> <textarea mdbActive type=”text” id=”l_preText” rows=”2″ [formControl]=”aForm.controls[‘preText’]” class=”form-control md-textarea md-textarea-auto”></textarea> <label for=”l_preText” class=””>Introductory Text</label> </div> <controlMsg [form]=”aForm” [field]=”‘preText'”></controlMsg> <div class=”md-form”> <textarea mdbActive type=”text” id=”l_postText” rows=”2″ class=”md-textarea md-textarea-auto” [formControl]=”aForm.controls[‘postText’]”></textarea> <label for=”l_postText” class=””>Completion Text</label> </div> <controlMsg [form]=”aForm” [field]=”‘postText'”></controlMsg> <div class=”md-form mt-2″> <input mdbActive type=”text” id=”l_endpollUrl” class=”” [formControl]=”aForm.controls[‘endpollUrl’]”> <label for=”l_endpollUrl” class=””>Poll End Redirect URL</label> <small>URL to which the user will be directed upon completion of the poll</small> </div> <controlMsg [form]=”aForm” [field]=”‘endpollUrl'”></controlMsg> <!– <div class=”md-form”> <input mdbActive type=”text” id=”l_customPollUrl” class=”form-control” [formControl]=”aForm.controls[‘customPollUrl’]”> <label for=”l_customPollUrl” class=””>Custom poll URL</label> </div> <controlMsg [form]=”aForm” [field]=”‘customPollUrl'”></controlMsg> –> <!–TODO: this.questSetNums = 0;

Dear robsilva, Thanks for your report! We'll take a look at this and we'll fix it in future releases. As a workaround, please use this styles in your styles.scss file: .mydp-date { height: 24px !important; } It will center vertically your date and time pickers. Best Regards, Damian
