Date/Time Field displaying minutes in 5 min increments not 1 minute

Megan Vaughan

How do I change my Date/time field to show 1 minute increments not the current 5 min. increments?

Guessing custom fenderer as I don't think it's an option to declare it. I don't think javascript can alter option values made available by the field renderer.

Take a look at this post where our current time selection methodology is outlined.  
https://community.skuidify.com/skuid/topics/datetime-displaying-minutes-in-both-1-min-5-min-blocks

At this point this is pretty hard coded into Skuid and there is not a simple way to create a custom renderer to extend or adjust this functionality.   An area for impromvement for sure. 

What time picker interfaces are you using in other systems that you find very intuitive?  We are always looking for good models....

I am using a Date/time field to log in employees time cards. I need to be able to select the exact minute. What is the best go around?

Megan...Robert Mruczek on our team came up with this.  It's a custom render and swaps the picklist values for the time field with the one he defines.  It basically follows Pat's suggestion.

var field = arguments[0],    value = arguments[1];
    
console.log(value);
if(field.mode == 'edit') {
    
    skuid.ui.fieldRenderers.DATETIME.edit(field, value);
    var html = '<option value="0">00</option><option value="1">01</option><option value="2">02</option><option value="3">03</option><option value="4">04</option><option value="5">05</option><option value="6">06</option><option value="7">07</option><option value="8">08</option><option value="9">09</option><option value="10">10</option><option value="11">11</option><option value="12">12</option><option value="13">13</option><option value="14">14</option><option value="15">15</option><option value="16">16</option><option value="17">17</option><option value="18">18</option><option value="19">19</option><option value="20">20</option><option value="21">21</option><option value="22">22</option><option value="23">23</option><option value="24">24</option><option value="25">25</option><option value="26">26</option><option value="27">27</option><option value="28">28</option><option value="29">29</option><option value="30">30</option><option value="31">31</option><option value="32">32</option><option value="33">33</option><option value="34">34</option><option value="35">35</option><option value="36">36</option><option value="37">37</option><option value="38">38</option><option value="39">39</option><option value="40">40</option><option value="41">41</option><option value="42">42</option><option value="43">43</option><option value="44">44</option><option value="45">45</option><option value="46">46</option><option value="47">47</option><option value="48">48</option><option value="49">49</option><option value="50">50</option><option value="51">51</option><option value="52">52</option><option value="53">53</option><option value="54">54</option><option value="55">55</option><option value="56">56</option><option value="57">57</option><option value="58">58</option><option value="59">59</option>';
    
    jQuery(field.element.find(".nx-dt-timewrapper").find("select")[1]).html(html);
    
    var jsDate = skuid.time.parseSFDateTime(value);
    var selectedOpt = jQuery(jQuery(field.element.find(".nx-dt-timewrapper").find("select"))[1]).find("option").filter(function(index, item) {return jQuery(item).attr("value") == jsDate.getMinutes()});
    
    selectedOpt.attr("selected", "");
    
    
}
else {
    
    skuid.ui.fieldRenderers.DATETIME.read(field, value);
}

Thanks Bill.  That is a great extension of core Skuid using our available APIs

This render breaks is the date field is not populated. Here is a related post with a work around.
