TimePicker

Picking a time can be tough without context. A BitTimePicker offers a drop-down control that’s optimized for picking a single time from a clock view where contextual information like the day of the week or fullness of the calendar is important. You can modify the calendar to provide additional context or to limit available times.

Usage

Basic
Explore the basic usage of the BitTimePicker component, including a disabled state and a placeholder option.





Time format
Use of different time formats in the BitTimePicker, specifically the 12-hour (AM/PM) and 24-hour formats.


Text input
The input field will open the BitTimePicker, and clicking the field again will dismiss the BitTimePicker and allow text input. Please note to use this feature, you must enter the time in the exact TimeFormat provided for the BitTimePicker.
Icon
Customize the icon of the BitTimePicker, including placing the icon on either the left or right side.


Formatting
Applications can customize how times are formatted and parsed. Formatted times can be ambiguous, so the control will avoid parsing the formatted strings of times selected using the UI when text input is allowed. In this example, we are formatting and parsing times as hh-mm.ss.
Binding
Bind the selected time value of the BitTimePicker to a variable and display the selected time below the picker.

Selected time: 05:12:15
Validation
Validation will happen when the Submit button is clicked. This example demonstrates how to use the BitTimePicker within a form to validate the selected time.


Responsive
Enable responsive design for the BitTimePicker, allowing it to adjust its layout and appearance based on the screen size.

Templates
Customize the BitTimePicker using templates, including a custom label template with an action button and a custom icon template.
