Topic: Vertically center date and time pickers
I have a longer form that uses the date and timepicker. When activated the widget appears all the way up and not in the center of the screen. How can I set 'body' as its parent container? Thanks.
Thanks Damian:
Here’s the screenshot: https://screencast.com/t/pohOtOiWZtq
Note that the date and time pickers are in a modal:

Dear robsilva, Thanks for your report! We'll take a look at this and we'll fix it in future releases. As a workaround, please use this styles in your styles.scss file: .mydp-date { height: 24px !important; } It will center vertically your date and time pickers. Best Regards, DamianFREE CONSULTATION
