| Aug 25, 2014 at 9:19 | comment | added | Rumi P. | I find this question strange, because in my experience, a user who wants to change the date will click there without the need for any hints. What behavior are you observing instead of clicking? Do you mean that the field allows type editing, only the button to the right opens a date picker, and you want the users to always use the date picker? If this is the case, the best solution is probably not to use any hints, but to remove the text editing and have the picker open when the user clicks anywhere in the field. | |
