I need to disable a datepicker depending on the value of another property in the model.
How can I achieve this?
I know i can disable it by setting _disabled=true|false but can I also include conditional expression and what is the syntax. I need to be able to react to the changes in the other property and have the date picker update disable state accordingly. The other property is a data linked select with numeric values.
Something like
{^{datepicker
_disabled="{:OtherProperty > 1}}
DatePickerValue
dataFormat="mm/dd/yy"
dateFormat="dd/mm/yy"
{{/datepicker}}"
Is this possible and how can I do this?
Yes, you can do that.
You can put an expression directly as a value of a tag property: _disabled=OtherProperty > 1
- which will initialize the value.
But by default, tag properties are not data-linked for dynamic changes. You have to opt in to that by prepending a ^
. See Binding to named properties of tags, and also the section Data-linked option here
See for example the dynamic binding of ^_numberOfMonths=...
in the Datepicker variants sample.
So in your case you need something like:
{^{datepicker
^_disabled=OtherProperty>1
DatePickerValue
dataFormat="mm/dd/yy"
dateFormat="dd/mm/yy" /}}
