Parsing of the users Input (defined by ParseFormats) is stopping, as soon as min date is set. This happens if the date,evaluated by the parsing, is outside the min/max range. 

I would suggest, that parsing takes the min/max boundaries into account. 

The editors do support inline footer's but you can't use an external footer template yet.

Example template:

<script type="text/template" id="datepicker-footer-template">

    "Today: #:kendo.toString(data, 'yyyy-MM-dd')#, Week: #:kendo.recurrence.weekInYear(data,kendo.culture().calendar.firstDay)#"

</script>

Suggestion to add a footer-template configuration option like this:

<input name="Date" data-role="datepicker" data-bind="value: Date" data-format="yyyy-MM-dd" data-week-number="true" data-footer-template="datepicker-footer-template"/>

An alternate header with Month and Year Dropdowns would be helpful on the DatePicker

I noticed that the time picker would not parse a 3 or 4 digit time w/ am/pm (that doesn't have a ":" separator) even though there wouldn't be any ambiguity based on the parseFormat array.  I was told that the picker doesn't officially support any time parsing that doesn't contain a colon and if some work without a colon it is by chance.

This vote would be for more thorough format parsing on the picker controls.  The ones I specifically noticed were failures to parse "hmmt", "hmmtt".  See this ticket for more info and a dojo example.

if we set min value  just for validation for new entry...then if user retrieve old record from database which document date is before  the minimum date it displays empty. so there should be read only dates available. thanks

DateInput doesn't support fuzzy dates. (Where day/month/year are optional) This is useful in order entry applications where the developer doesn't have control over what information is available from customers and information supplied is inconsistent.

The DateInput controller could have an option to read/submit formatted strings or some kind of strongly typed DTO so that given parts of the DateInput initialize as blank/null.

Have the time drop down function kind of like normal drop downs, where they don't filter, but will jump down to the time you start typing after opening the drop down like the drop downs do when you start typing after opening them.

Currently the disabled date function only make the dates disabled, but if you are using the component as a month/year picker through the "depth" property you would also like the months/years to be unselectable if the whole month is included in the disabled date period.

because dateTimePicker can show weekNr now, if it is possible to enable select whole week ( or select weekNr), Thanks

It is essential that k-ng-model integrate completely and accurately with angular.  For instance if I am using k-ng-model with a date picker and set it to required angular validation will not work.

This same issue exists with all of the kendo controls that support k-ng-model

I want the datetimepicker to pull from the database if a value exists, show nothing if it doesn't, and get the current date and time when user clicks on the calendar icon.   It doesn't get the current time.  It shows midnight.  I can get the datetimepicker to default to today's date (on display) and current time if I don’t try and pull a value from the database.

For the datepicker control, it would be great if it could support relative values for the min and max range like the jQuery datepicker does.  For instance, you can set minDate: 0, which is today.  Or you can say maxDate: "+6M" for a max date of 6 months from today (as in their documentation: https://api.jqueryui.com/datepicker/#option-maxDate).  These generic expressions make it much easier to set restrictions.

Date picker when entering the day or day and month to autofill the content with current year or current month and year, same as asp.net ajax datepicker

Is there any possibility to add a new property to the datepicker that will let the user to use a datepicker like the ones used in materializecss framework?

Sample here:
http://materializecss.com/forms.html#date-picker

when mouse click in a kendoDatePicker, control will auto choose date part at clicked position, and we can use left and right arrow to go to another date part, use up and down arrow to cycle through all possible value of that part, or input number (month name in the case) directly instead

It would be helpful if when entering a date into a datepicker control you could just type +7 to have it select 7 days from today.  Or -5 for 5 days ago.  Or if you just type 0, it would select today.  Or type 15 and it would select the 15th of the current month.  This would make keying in dates much faster than using the calendar.

Optionally allow for the disabling of Daylight Savings time detection when using the DateTime picker, or to set the TimeZone for the picker manually.

The current date time and date-time pickers don't allow for scrolling the data using the mouse scroll. 
This functionality is available in ajax controls this makes a mix web site not consistent in behavior of controls.

Currently when creating a Date/Time Picker object by using the time in milliseconds since 01.01.1970 UTC the Date/Time Picker works perfect.

When trying to submit a form containing a Date/Time Picker, the widget will submit the formatted time/date instead of the milliseconds since 01.01.1970 UTC.

There is a workaround to extend the onChange Event and manipulate the value of the input field manually. This might solve the technical problem but now the UTC milliseconds will be displayed inside the widget.

Might it be possible that the widget formats the display date/time and keeps a hidden input field for storing the value? It is actually not possbile to use dates/times in UTC milliseconds with this widget allthough the JavaScript Date object can handle it.

Provide properties to set min/max time of the DateTimePicker, e.g always shows from 8AM to 5PM of everyday.
