Hi,

Is TDateEdit (LCL) supposed to be the equivalent of VCL's TDateTimePicker?

The TDateEdit is only for dates I presume. So where is the component for specifying time or both date & time?

PS:
The TDateEdit is full of bugs. I was simply looking for the date/time format property and found 5 other bugs (all now reported in Mantis). So be warned, this component still needs a lot of work.

Regards,

Most seem to be gtk2 issues and/or related to larger than usual font size.

I have not tested it on other widgestsets, hence the bug reports only mentions GTK2. As for my font size. It's what came with my Ubuntu 8.04.2.

The only customization I done on my system, was to change my theme to Clearlooks (I despise the Human theme) and adjusted the colors to a blue tint. I did not touch any font settings. I'm also running X11 at 96dpi
- is is normal I believe.
