Editor: Stop calendar from opening automatically

rldean1

I'm using DT Editor. Moment.js is loaded.

You can specify a datetime field in DT Editor, like this:

                fields: [
                    {
                        label: "Effective Date:",
                        name: "EffectDate",
                        type: "datetime",
                        format: 'MM-DD-YYYY'
                    },

However, when you Edit the row, after the editor window pops up, the calendar automatically opens. It hides (covers) the other fields. Also, I should mention that it's the first field.

How do I stop auto open from happening on the datetime field?

Editor gives focus to the first input field by default.

You can find alternative behaviours here:

That worked! Added the following formOptions to stop auto-focus on datetime field which was covering the other fields.

                formOptions: {
                    main: {
                        /**
                         * https://editor.datatables.net/reference/type/form-options
                         */
                        focus: null
                    }
                },
