propagate	bool	App config	Allows the control's main value to be automatically propagated. The default value is defined at the application configuration level. If True, any change to the control's value is immediately reflected in the bound application variable.

^(★)date is the default property for this visual element.

Styling

All the date controls are generated with the "taipy-date" CSS class. You can use this class name to select the date selectors on your page and apply style.

Stylekit support

The Stylekit provides a specific class that you can use to style date selectors:

• fullwidth
  If a date selector uses the fullwidth class, then it uses the whole available horizontal space.

Usage

Using the full date and time

Assuming a variable dt contains a Python datetime object, you can create a date selector that represents it:

Page content

Markdown

<|{dt}|date|>

HTML

<taipy:date>{dt}</taipy:date>

Using only the date

If you don't need to use the date, you can do so:

Page content

Markdown

<|{dt}|date|not with_time|>

HTML

<taipy:date with_time="false">{dt}</taipy:date>
