DESCRIPTION¶

Curses::UI::Dialog::Calendar is a calendar dialog. This type of dialog can be used to select a date.

See exampes/demo-widgets in the distribution for a short demo.

OPTIONS¶

• -title < TEXT >

  Set the title of the dialog window to TEXT.

• -date < DATE >

  Set the date to start with to DATE. If -date is not defined, today will be used as the startdate.

METHODS¶

• new ( OPTIONS )
• layout ( )
• draw ( BOOLEAN )
• focus ( )
• modalfocus ( )

  These are standard methods. See Curses::UI::Container for an explanation of these.

• get ( )

  This method will return the date that was selected or undef if no date was selected.

SPECIAL BINDINGS¶

•

escape

This will invoke the cancel button, so the calendar dialog returns without selecting any date.
