Projects/Usability/HIG/Date Time Pickers

Purpose

Date time pickers allows the user to type or pick a date, a time, or both.

Guidelines

• When selecting a date, if space is limited, use a KDateComboBox or a KDateWidget. If more room is available, use a KDatePicker.
• When user must select both start and end date/times, make the default end date/time aware of the start date/time: when the user sets a start date, switch the end date at least to the same date.
