SimpleDate

Extends:

gui/data-items/SimpleDateTime.js~SimpleDateTime → SimpleDate

The purpose of SimpleDate is to store a date. It will write to your tool's XML configuration the text of the date value set on it. It uses moment.js (https://momentjs.com/) for parsing and formatting date data. The display format and persistence format can be controlled through properties using moment.js formatting strings (https://momentjs.com/docs/#/displaying/format/). You can change the format of the string it persists in your tool XML configuration independent of the format of the string used for display. The default value is the current date in format of "YYYY-MM-DD".
