DateTime Dialog(DatePicker) not working on Physical Devices

[maxkeppeler]

I have to look through all the possible characters and fix this!
Thanks man, very helpful as I'm currently keeping myself busy with landscape layouts.

Hey, thanks for the reply. My current Locale is en_IN.
As you suggested changing the default values for locale or dateFormatStyle shows the dialogue's expected UI.

In my case setting either of these values shows the expected result:-
locale = Locale.UK
or
dateFormatStyle = FormatStyle.FULL/FormatStyle.LONG

Hi @maxkeppeler upon debugging I found out that when using default values for locale and dateFromatStyle, for my locale i.e. en_IN the generated pattern is dd-MMM-y and in your com.maxkeppeler.sheets.date_time.utils.Utils.kt file for function getLocalizedValues - delimiters is missing. Due to this in PickerComponent.kt values state size is 1 and only one composable is generated.

Upon changing dateFormatStyle = FormatStyle.FULL the generated pattern is EEEE, d MMMM, y and in PickerComponent.kt values state size is 4 and the output UI is as expected.

The view uses by default the localized date and time pattern with the specified FormatStyle and Locale.
The idea was to let the view build up an input based on the pattern, the locale and the format style in the matching order of a date or time.

Defaults are like this:

    override val locale: Locale = Locale.getDefault(),
        override val dateFormatStyle: FormatStyle = FormatStyle.MEDIUM,
        override val timeFormatStyle: FormatStyle = FormatStyle.SHORT,

Can you pass a specific Locale to the Dialog and see if it works? What is the current locale, perhaps some rules/ conditions are missing for a specific locale/ pattern?

That's good! However, does that mean it couldn't generate a valid date pattern for the locale of the device? Can you figure out what the pattern was? Ideally, it should still work with the Locale.getDefault().
