Description Paul Brown 2025-04-15 18:04:53 UTC 
SUMMARY

Tokodon has a new feature that allows you to schedule toots for a later date. The feature works great, but actually setting the time of day for the boost is very hard if you only have a touchpad available, as the widget does not allow keyboard entry or scrolling through the options using the mouse wheel—or the emulated two-finger gesture.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Start a post and press the "Schedule" button
2. Choose the date from the calendar pop-up
3. Try to choose the time from the time pop-up

OBSERVED RESULT

Trying to choose the time from the pop-up is awkward with a mouse: the scroll wheel does not work and there is no option for keyboard input. The only option is to click and drag the numbers, which scroll very slowly.  With a touchpad this is even clunkier, as you have to hold down the left button on the pad  and then slide your finger to maker the number scroll, requiring, two hands to carry out this slow and awkward process.

EXPECTED RESULT

That the scroll wheel would work.

I have been told this is the "date & time picker" from the Kirigami framework.
