All Implemented Interfaces:

Skin<MFXTextField>

public class MFXDatePickerSkin
extends MFXTextFieldSkin

Skin associated with every MFXDatePicker by default.

Extends MFXTextFieldSkin and adds the necessary properties, components, listeners and bindings to build the date picker.

Compared to the old implementation (it was the MFXDatePickerContent class) this is much smaller, easier to read/understand, organized and efficient.

The structure is pretty simple. The popup contains a GridPane which shows the days of the current selected month. The month/year selection is controlled by a pair of MFXComboBox and arrows.

The grid is 6x7 (rows x columns). The first row contains the week days, the other rows contain the days. To make it as efficient as possible both the week days and the days cells are cached. The cells are just updated when needed.

When the MFXDatePicker.cellFactoryProperty() or the MFXDatePicker.localeProperty() change a full/partial reset of the cache is needed.
