Date picker widget dropdown years are too limited

Technical Support

Hi team,

I am using the DatePickerWidgetAnnotation and I have noticed that when you click the dropdown for years, it doesn’t go back very far. The set is too limited, can we have this expanded please? Or is there an option to configure it? It makes it difficult for users to enter things such as their DOB without typing it in manually instead of using the widget.

Hi!

You can call this as soon as Express is done loading:

WebViewer({...}).then(instance => {
   instance.Annotations.DatePickerWidgetAnnotation.datePickerOptions.yearRange = [1990, 2050];
})

The first item in the array is the lower bounds, the second item is the upper bounds.

Thanks!
Logan
