Contacts: Unable to type in birthday - only pickup possible ...

[kangaroo72]

App-Version: 3.8.1 / NC 18.0.1

Dear devs,

I think there's already an issue, but I cannot find it.
When I want to add a birthday to a contact, I only can select it with the date-picker.
I'm unable to type in the date directly. This would be much faster.
Can you help there??

Thanks, Tom

I can confirm the problem on NC 17.0.3 with Contacts 3.1.8. All fields that have a date involved are affected.

To Reproduce

1. Open any contact that might or might not have a birthday field
2. Add a birthday field if there isn't one already
3. Change the date in the text field

Expected behavior
Date picker closes and value from the text field is taken.

Actual behavior
Date picker closes but value is reset to what was there before.

But I am confused as it has been marked closed in https://github.com/nextcloud/nextcloud-vue/issues/137 ?

Are those really the same issues as this one? If I understood correctly, vue2-datepicker#290 is about changing a part of the date by mouse in the calendar UI, whereas this issue is about accepting inputs into the input element to which the calendar is attached.

Is this the same issue as #1865?
