Usage & Behaviour

General guidelines

Structure

The input field is composed of a string indicating the range (start - end) and an icon. Next to the field, a label would be set.

The menu is composed of 2 consecutive calendar months horizontally displayed. From left (start) to right (end). The direction might change according to RTL languages.

Beneath each of the calendar months, a manual input field is displayed. The field also displays the selected dates from the calendar months

Content

Usually used with a label “Date range”.

Internal Logic

The months are always coupled which means the user always sees 2 consecutive months.

For example, if the user chooses to see the Januar 2020 on the End month (right side), the left side will show December 2019.

Interaction

• The external field can only be clicked upon, no manual entry of dates

• Selection is always From (start) date -> To (end) date

Opening the menu

Clicking anywhere in the external field will open the menu

• By default, the From Field is highlighted

  • This field only allows manual input by keyboard

• Clicking outside the menu is equivalent to the Cancel operation

Selecting a From date

• Clicking anywhere on either of the displayed calendar months will select that date as From and update the From Input Field at the bottom and the External field ( should the External field be updated immediately )

• The focus will move to the To Field

• All dates prior to the From date are disabled

• Clicking outside the menu is equivalent to the Cancel operation

Hovering for the To Date

• A “trail” of hovered dates will be presented as the user hovers to select the To date

• Clicking outside the menu is equivalent to the Cancel operation

Selecting the To date

• Clicking on the To date will

  • Show range selection as selected

  • Update the To input field at the bottom

  • Enable all previously disabled dates (prior to 17 in the example)

  • Move the Focus back to the From input field

• Clicking outside the menu is equivalent to the Apply operation
