Date Picker enhancements

I was working with the date and time picker component and I have some requests / UX suggestions.

Feature

  • I am building a screen in retool that allows a user to pick a time in a timezone local to the entity. I’d like to be able to set a dynamic variable timezone (i.e. table1.selectedRow.data.tz) for the datepicker to take inputs in as opposed to just UTC and local timezones. Right now, I have to convert the initial value and then convert the resulting value which was quite a time sink.

UX / bugs:

  • When I try to type an entry in the date time picker, the time resets to the previous value instead of respecting what I type when I click out of it.
