Beats me why this is not implemented into Flex, it seems to me like a very basic/natural/user-friendly behavior that any date chooser should have.
I m talking about the ability to drag-select a range on the DateChooser.
That is: mouse down, drag to select a range of days, mouse up.
This component extends DateChooser to add a new property: dragSelect (true/false).
Notice that (obviously) ‘allowMultipleSelection’ must be set to true in order to use the drag-select feature.
Also in this demo you can see a custom date range validator with minimum and maximum allowed days.
