[pickers] Missing emptyLabel feature on datepicker and timepicker
In material-ui-pickers
there's a feature that allows you to set a custom label when the value of the picker is null.
Prop name is emptyLabel
and has the following description: Message displaying in text field, if null passed
You can read about it here: https://material-ui-pickers.dev/api/KeyboardDatePicker
- [x] I have searched the issues of this repository and believe that this is not a duplicate.
I also added a question on StackOverflow in case there's a workaround but haven't found any: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/69815113/how-to-set-an-empty-label-on-material-ui-v5-mui-lab-datepicker-component
Summary 💡
Provide an emptyLabel
or similar prop to all date and time pickers so a string can be displayed when the value of the picker is null.
Examples 🌈
When the value of the date or time picker is null, instead of showing a blank input display the emptyLabel
string instead.
Motivation 🔦
This feature is present in material-ui-pickers
and I depend on it to provide useful information to the user when the picker has a null
value. I'm migrating an app to MUI v5 and replacing material-ui-pickers
with @mui/lab
versions but this missing feature prevents me from moving on with it.
